Abstract:
Objective:To report the therapeutic effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy(MBCT)for one outpatient with depression.Methods:A pre-and post-intervention design was used to evaluate a 10-week online MBCT intervention for case W.The Symptom Check List-90(SCL-90),Defense Style Question-naire(DSQ),Mindful Attention Awareness Scale(MAAS),Self-Acceptance Questionnaire(SAQ),and NEO-Five Factor Inventory(NEO-FFI)were conducted one week before MBCT(baseline),five weeks during MBCT,one week after the end of MBCT,and two years after the end of MBCT.A semi-structured interview was conducted with W five months after the end of MBCT.Results:Quantitative results showed that no matter one week or 2 years after the end of MBCT,W's depression,anxiety,immature defense mechanisms,mindfulness levels,self-acceptance levels,and extroversion/agreeableness all showed reliable improvement compared to baseline(|RCI|>1.96).Qualitative analysis showed that in W's narrative,psychiatric drugs,enhancing awareness,avoiding thinking biases,promoting self-acceptance and care,and stable treatment alliances were the factors that W could benefit from MBCT.Conclusion:Online MBCT could effectively improve the symptoms and psychological function of this out-patient with depression.
