Resumo
A entrada no Ensino Superior caracteriza-se por ser uma das fases de vida com altos níveis de stresse, com impacto na sua saúde mental. A promoção do mindfulness e autocompaixão tem demonstrado resultados positivos na regulação de dificuldades psicológicas, do stresse crónico e dos níveis de bem-estar. O presente estudo pretendeu explorar o papel do mindfulness e da autocompaixão nos níveis de stresse e de bem-estar nos estudantes universitários. A amostra foi constituída por 27 estudantes da Universidade Lusófona – Centro Universitário do Porto, com uma idade média de 24 anos, sendo 89% do sexo feminino. Os participantes responderam a um conjunto de questionários online. Relativamente ao bem-estar, foram encontradas correlações positivas significativas com os fatores de isolamento reduzido (p < .001), a sobre-identificação (p < .001) e o não julgar (p < .05). Estes três fatores explicaram cerca de 47,4% da variabilidade do bem-estar. Relativamente ao stresse, os preditores não reagir, observar e autocriticismo reduzido explicaram 39,5% do variável critério. O auto criticismo reduzido (p <.05) e o não reagir (p <.05) emergiram como preditores significativos. Os resultados apontam para a relação e contribuição de diferentes dimensões do mindfulness e da autocompaixão para os níveis de stresse e bem-estar de programas baseados no mindfulness.
Entering Higher Education is characterized by being one of the stages of life with high stress levels, impacting your mental health. Promoting mindfulness and self-compassion has been shown to have positive results in regulating psychological difficulties, chronic stress, and levels of well-being. The present study aimed to explore the role of mindfulness and self-compassion in stress levels and well-being in college students. The sample consisted of 27 students from Universidade Lusófona –Centro Universitário do Porto with an average age of 24, and 89% were female. Participants receive a set of online questionnaires. Regarding well-being, significant positive correlations were found with the factors of reduced isolation (p< .001), over-identification (p< .001) and non-judgment (p< .05). These three factors explained about 47.4% of the variability in well-being. Regarding stress, the predictors of not reacting, observing and reduced self-criticism explained 39.5% of the criterion variable. Reduced self-criticism (p<.05) and non-reaction (p<.05) emerged as significant predictors. The results point to the relationship and contribution of different dimensions of mindfulness and self-compassion to the levels of stress and well-being of mindfulness-based programs.
