2021, Psychiatry ResearchCitation Excerpt :In the case of high heterogeneity, we used moderator analyses on comparator types (such asinactive or active comparator) and MBI type (MBSR and non-MBSR) to explore the source of the heterogeneity. Previous articles found that the effectiveness of MBIs was overstated because of selective reporting of the relative effect of MBI on patients in the WL group (Coronado-Montoya et al., 2016; Farias, Wikholm, & Delmonte, 2016). In this meta-analysis, the comparators were divided into inactive and active control groups.
Considerations for mood and emotion measures in mindfulness-based intervention research
2019, Current Opinion in PsychologyCitation Excerpt :Looking at industry standards, we see that the FDA guidance document for depression treatment trials, for example, states that “a placebo group is necessary to ensure that observed effects are not the result of spontaneous improvement, expectation bias, attention from health care professionals involved in the trial, regression to the mean, or other factors not related to the activity of the study drug.” [15•]. Criticism has been raised concerning inadequate control groups in MBI research (e.g. see review for the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ): [17,18,19•,20,21,39•] but suggested attention control conditions are problematic. For example, an effort to develop ‘plausible and therapeutic comparison conditions’ [21] such as the health enhancement program (HEP) disqualifies that very comparison group because it has become too therapeutic for the detection of a contrast.
Mindfulness-based interventions for women victims of interpersonal violence: A systematic review
2019, Archives of Psychiatric NursingCitation Excerpt :Researchers indicate the possibility of methodological limitations, especially in studies with randomized clinical trial experimental designs, using control groups in inactive conditions. They also criticize the lack of specificity in relation to the results presented on intervention outcomes and suggest that individual personality characteristics may have interfered in the results, for example, individuals with a profile “open to new experiences” may benefit more from Mindfulness interventions (Farias, Wikholm, & Delmonte, 2016). In considering Mindfulness interventions as a recent theme for investigation and the existence of criticism on their effectiveness, this systematic review aims to identify empirical evidence on the benefits of Mindfulness interventions for the treatment of women affected by violence, specifically victims of interpersonal violence.
Audio-guided mindfulness training in schools and its effect on academic attainment: Contributing to theory and practice
2018, Learning and InstructionCitation Excerpt :Our findings may also relate at least in part to the increasing number of mindfulness thought leaders urging scholars and mindfulness enthusiasts to exercise caution when considering any mandatory exposure to this type of intervention in schools. At least 20 case reports have been published documenting adverse effects of mindfulness meditation experiences (van Dam et al., 2018) and this type of intervention may not work for everyone (Farias, Wikholm, & Delmonte, 2016). Hence, the possibility of MBIs generating counterproductive consequences for some students cannot be ignored.
