  • 소개/요약Even with advances in psychosocial rehabilitation, individuals with psychotic disorders continue to experience subjective distress and widespread functional impairment. Investigations of mindfulness treatments support the utility of the approach for this population, but gaps in this area include a lack of treatments targeting self-regulatory capacities to enhance multiple psychosocial domains affected by psychosis. In this initial treatment development study, the treatment was manualized, its feasibility was assessed, and an open trial of a new mindfulness intervention that combines mindfulness training and cognitive-behavioral elements was conducted. Twenty-one individuals with psychotic disorders receiving services at a psychosocial rehabilitation program were provided with the 10-week group, entitled Mindfulness-Based Self-Regulation Training (MBSRT). High recruitment and retention rates, along with a high degree of treatment satisfaction reported by participants, suggests the treatment is feasible to deliver and highly regarded by individuals with psychosis. Results showed that participants achieved significant improvements in wellbeing and functioning domains at post-treatment, with large effect sizes in most outcomes. In addition, processes targeted by the intervention (mindfulness and self-regulation) improved significantly over the course of treatment, and changes in processes were correlated with changes in multiple outcome domains. Findings indicate that MBSRT is a promising treatment approach for psychotic disorders that warrants further testing in a future randomized trial._x000D_
