Este estudo teve como objetivo revisar sistematicamente as publicações sobre intervenções baseadas em mindfulness para estudantes com dislexia. Para tanto, realizou-se uma revisão sistemática da literatura, selecionando artigos publicados em inglês, entre 2012 e 2020, por meio das bases de dados PsycINFO, Web of Science, PubMed, Europe PMC e Scopus. No total, 173 artigos foram encontrados e apenas 9 estudos satisfizeram os critérios de inclusão. Observaram-se resultados positivos das intervenções baseadas em mindfulness na vida emocional e acadêmica dos estudantes disléxicos. Entre os benefícios estão a redução do estresse, da ansiedade e da depressão, maior satisfação com a vida, entre outros. Conclui-se que este trabalho traz contribuições e subsídios para profissionais da psicologia escolar, haja vista a inserção das práticas de mindfulness como intervenção promissora para a promoção de bem-estar psicológico e desempenho acadêmico em estudantes disléxicos do ensino básico ao superior.

“…The child with SLDs do not outgrow their difficulties as they reach adolescence, they continue to interfere with learning in adult education settings. They often require unique educational supports to succeed (Benney et al, 2021), even during their Higher Education studies.

The number of students with special needs enrolled in higher education is increasing on an international level. In this context, it is becoming crucial to train teachers with more specific knowledge and skills to be more prepared to address the diverse learning needs of their students. An anonymous voluntary 17-items web-based survey was completed by 158 teachers. The main objective was to identify the training programs and best practices on inclusive education and on SLDs available for teachers in Higher Education and to explore the transnational training needs for the professionals in SLDs. University teachers are yet to have the knowledge to adapt the content, their teaching strategies, assessment methods and learning community support, to a more appropriate learning environment for students with learning disorders.

“…However, the meditation practice did not affect students' reading achievement, which included measures of reading comprehension. In a recent pilot study, Benney et al (2021) examined whether mindfulness training, combined with reading fluency training, would help a fourth-grade student with learning disabilities to improve his reading fluency compared to the reading fluency training without a mindfulness intervention. Various analyses of these data did not find conclusive evidence on whether meditation leads to improved reading fluency.…”

Objectives Research on the effects of meditation practice on reading performance is a new and promising field of research. However, the evidence on whether meditation improves reading comprehension and/or speed in continuous reading is inconclusive. The present work addresses this question. Method For the present longitudinal study, undergraduate students (n = 52) participated in a 6-week mindfulness meditation course or an active control condition. We assessed reading comprehension and speed before and after the intervention/control condition, as well as emotion regulation, sustained attention, and personality traits. Results Reading comprehension improved significantly after the meditation intervention (B = 2.15, t = 3.47, p = 0.002, d = 0.69), but reading speed did not change, contrary to our expectations. The control group showed no significant changes in either text comprehension or reading speed. Further, we found that meditation led to better attention capacity. Improved attention was positively associated with improved reading comprehension in the meditation group, though attention capacity did not mediate the effect on text comprehension. While we found that meditation can increase the acceptance of one’s own emotions and decrease emotional overload, these covariates did not affect comprehension performance. Conclusions The present work shows that mindfulness meditation improves attention capacity and text comprehension. However, mindfulness meditation does not affect reading speed. Finally, we confirmed that meditation can help in emotion regulation. Preregistration This study is not preregistered.
