Miller University of Windsor  \nAbstract  \nMindfulness has received significant attention in the empirical literature during the past decade, but few studies have focused on mindfulness in university students and how it may influence problematic behaviours. This study examined the relationships among mindfulness, coping, and physiological reactivity in a sample of university students. Participants completed questionnaires, and skin conductance measurements were collected during an interview where they recalled a personally stressful event. Correlation analyses tested relationships among these variables. There was a negative correlation between substance use and mindfulness. Specifically, those using substances as a coping mechanism were less likely to be mindful and displayed higher physiological reactivity. More mindful individuals were less likely to report misusing substances and were able to calm themselves more quickly than their counterparts following a stressful event. Thus, poor outcomes for distressed students may be reduced with mindfulness-based interventions.  \nRésumé  \nAu cours des dernières décennies, la pleine conscience a été l’objet d’une attention importante dans la documentation empirique, mais peu d’étudesont ciblé la pleine conscience chez les étudiants et sa façon d’influencer les comportements problématiques.

En plus de répondre à des questionnaires, les participants ont dû passer une entrevue où il leur fallait raconter un souvenir personnel particulièrement stressant pendant qu’on mesurait leur conductance cutanée. Des analyses de corrélation ont évalué les liens entre ces variables. Ainsi, on a dénoté une corrélation négative entre l’utilisation de substances nocives et la pleine conscience. Plus précisément, les participants quiavaient consommé des substances nocives commemécanismed’adaptation avaient moins tendance à posséder des traits conscients, et ont démontré une réactivité physiologique plus élevée que les autres étudiants. Les gens plus pleinement conscients avaient moins tendance à utiliser des substances nocives, et étaient capables de se calmer plus rapidement que leurs pairs après un événement stressant. Par conséquent, des interventions basées sur la pleine conscience pourraient aider les étudiants stressés à ne pas adopterde comportements problématiques.  \nAs students enter university life and encounter all of the stressors, both positive and negative, that are part of that experience, they are also transitioning from adolescence into burgeoning adulthood. They are moving away from home and its many support systems. Academic demands, social challenges, and uncertainty about the future are linked to increased levels of stress (Deasy, Coughlan, Pironom, Jourdan, & McNamara, 2014) . In addition to these pressures, financial burdens contribute to the strain likely to overwhelm students (Deasy et al., 2014). With respect to feeling overwhelmed, reports over the past several years have revealed consistently high levels of anxiety and depression in university students (Regehr, Glancy, & Pitts, 2013; Schmidt, Sieverding, Scheiter, & Obergfell, 2015) . In the absence of a healthy means to cope or proper support networks, this increase in stress levels can be extremely taxing on the body. It is therefore not surprising that maladaptive coping strategies and unhealthy lifestyle choices are both prevalent and problematic in this population (Deasy et al., 20","cbCaih35npXLevhZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaih35npXLevhZ","pdf",267787,14,"English","# Abstract\n## Mindfulness, coping, and physiological reactivity\n## Substance use and mindfulness correlations\n## Stress context in university life","[{\"question\":\"What variables did the study examine?\",\"answer\":\"The study examined mindfulness, coping, and physiological reactivity among university students.\"},{\"question\":\"How were participants assessed during the study?\",\"answer\":\"Participants completed questionnaires, and skin conductance was measured during interviews where they recalled personally stressful events.\"},{\"question\":\"What was the key relationship between substance use and mindfulness?\",\"answer\":\"Substance use used as a coping mechanism was negatively correlated with mindfulness, with higher physiological reactivity among substance users.\"}]","Mindfulness Correlates with Stress and Coping in University Students | PDF",1792083620,35]
