Summary

We first explored the effect of mindfulness training on depression in patients with abdominal cancer. Then the effects of cognitive emotion regulation and emotional state in the training effect were examined. Sixty patients with abdominal cancer were recruited from a hospital and divided into two groups: the mindfulness group (n=30) who received a four-week mindfulness training program, and the control group (n=30) who received only one mindfulness lecture. All participants were assessed using the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale, Cognitive Emotion Regulation Strategy Questionnaire, Positive and Negative Affect Scale, and depression subscale of the Patient Health Questionnaire before and after the mindfulness training program.

Mindfulness training

The mindfulness training program consisted of four 45-minute lessons, conducted once a week. After each lesson, participants were required to complete daily homework, which included the mindfulness exercises learned during that week for at least 30 minutes. The mindfulness training program was based on Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Williams' Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. Additionally, specific contents of cancer-related mindfulness training were incorporated into this program, such as Anti-cancer Self-healing Power: 8 Lessons in Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction.
