- 소개/요약An impressive body of research indicates that expressive writing, which encourages participants to let go and explore their deepest thoughts and feelings while writing continuously, produces physical and psychological benefits. Mindfulness is defined as paying attention on purpose, in the present moment and nonjudgmentally, to the unfolding of experience moment by moment. Combining the concepts of expressive writing and mindfulness together, one could argue that an individual who is mindful is more capable of paying attention to the writing process in the present moment as well as to the experience of the actual event and to the internal and external events that followed. In addition, the literature suggests that mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of expressive writing, such as disinhibition, exposure to negative affect, and shifts in cognitive coping, are potential mechanisms that may also underlie the effectiveness of mindfulness interventions. The current study aimed to examine the effects of a mindfulness- enhanced expressive writing intervention among college students by introducing a brief mindfulness meditation prior to an expressive writing exercise. Results showed that individuals who practiced a brief mindfulness meditation training prior to writing experienced superior physical and psychological benefits relative to those in a comparison group who engaged in a listening activity, and they also reported an increase in mindfulness measured as a state. The study also replicated findings that individuals with higher baseline trait mindfulness scores responded better to expressive writing relative to those with lower baseline trait mindfulness scores._x000D_
