A recent study conducted at the Universidad de Concepcion explored the effects of two online mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) on attentional, emotional, and behavioral self-regulation in early adolescents. The study involved 74 children aged 8 to 12 years old who were randomly assigned to three groups: one focused on attentional practices, one focused on recognition and expression of emotions, and a control group. The interventions lasted 8 weeks and included online synchronous sessions and home practices. The results showed that both intervention programs improved mindfulness and emotional and behavioral regulation scores, while only the attentional practices group showed significant changes in attention self-regulation. The study suggests that online MBIs can be an effective strategy for strengthening self-regulation skills in early adolescence. [Extracted from the article] |
