Abstract

Objective: This experimental research examined theeffects of the Mindfulness-Based Thriving Program (MTP)on university students’ mindfulness and thriving levels.Method: The study was conducted with randomlyassigned 19 female students attending to a public university in Turkey. The inclusion criteria were to have lowscores on Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale andThriving Scale in pre-test assessment. Experimentalgroup (n=10) received a 6-session MTP interventiondeveloped by the first researcher while control group(n=9) received no intervention. To determine the immediate and long-term effects of the MTP, all participantscompleted post-tests two months after the program.Data were analyzed by using two-way ANOVA test. Todetermine the significant differences between subgroups, the Tukey (HSD) test was performed. Results:Post-test and follow-up results of experimental group forMAAS and Thriving Scale were found to be higher thantheir pre-test results, while there were no statistically significant changes in results of control group. Resultsrevealed that six-session MTP for university students wassignificantly effective in increasing mindfulness andthriving levels. Discussion: Research results highlight thepotential contribution of eclectic mindfulness practicesduring adolescence. Although, there are many studiessupporting the positive effect of mindfulness-basedinterventions on students, empirical evidence aboutMTP’s effect on thriving is very scarce. In this respect,this study is expected to contribute the current literatureby examining the MTP’s effect on mindfulness and thriving.

Özet

Amaç: Bu deneysel araştırma, Bilinçli Farkındalık Temelli Kendini Yetiştirme Programının (BFTKYP) üniversite öğrencilerinin bilinçli farkındalık ve kendini yetiştirme düzeyleri üzerindeki etkilerini incelemiştir. Yöntem: Araştırma, Türkiye'de bir devlet üniversitesinde öğrenim gören ve rastgele seçilen 19 kız öğrenci ile yapılmıştır. Araştırmaya dâhil olma kriteri, Bilinçli Farkındalık Ölçeği ve Kendini Yetiştirme Ölçeğinden ön-test değerlendirmesinde düşük puanlara sahip olmak olarak belirlendi. Deney grubuna (n = 10) ilk yazar tarafından geliştirilen 6 oturumluk BFTKYP müdahalesi uygulanırken, kontrol grubuna (n = 9) herhangi bir müdahale yapılmadı. BFTKYP’nin anlık ve uzun vadeli etkilerini belirlemek için, tüm katılımcılar programdan iki ay sonra son-testlerini tamamladılar. Veriler ANOVA testi kullanılarak analiz edildi. Alt gruplar arasındaki farklılıkları belirlemek için Tukey (HSD) testi yapıldı. Bulgular: Deney grubunun Bilinçli Farkındalık Ölçeği ve Kendini Yetiştirme Ölçeğine ait son-test ve takip sonuçları ön-test sonuçlarına göre daha yüksek bulunurken, kontrol grubu sonuçlarında anlamlı bir değişiklik görülmedi. Araştırma sonuçları, BFTKYP'nin üniversite öğrencilerinin bilinçli farkındalık ve kendini yetiştirme düzeylerini artırmada etkili olduğunu ortaya koydu. Sonuç: Araştırma sonuçları, ergenlik döneminde eklektik farkındalık uygulamalarının potansiyel katkısını vurgulamaktadır. Farkındalık temelli uygulamaların öğrenciler üzerindeki olumlu etkisini destekleyen birçok çalışma olmasına rağmen, BFTKYP'nin kendini yetiştirme üzerindeki etkisine dair ampirik kanıtlar çok azdır. Bu yönden bu çalışmanın mevcut literatüre katkıda bulunması beklenmektedir.
