Effects of yoga in a physical education course on attention control and mental health among graduate students with high sensory processing sensitivity

Abstract: This study aimed to examine the effects of yoga on attention control (AC) and mood states in graduate students with high and low sensory processing sensitivity (SPS) in a physical education course setting. Participants included 20 master's students in Japan who attended a yoga course for a semester and completed the Japanese version of the Highly Sensitive Person Scale, the AC subscale, and Profile of Mood States before and after the yoga course. The high SPS group students had lower AC and higher negative moo… Show more

“…Mindfulness training may be a substantial regulation strategy that can help cope with overstimulation and the consequences of high emotional reactivity. The importance of mindfulness training was demonstrated by Amemiya et al (2020) . A group of graduate students with high and low SPS participated in a yoga course.…”

“…For instance, highly sensitive adolescents had lower depressive tendencies (Pluess & Boniwell, 2015) or higher self-esteem (Kibe, Suzuki, Hirano, & Boniwell, 2020) than others after a school-based resilience program. Similarly, psychoeducational or physical exercise (i.e., yoga) programs implemented in educational institutions may have more beneficial effects for high-SPS students than low-SPS students, such as infrequent maladaptive behavior (Nocentini, Menesini, & Pluess, 2018) or a low level of anxiety (Amemiya et al, 2020). Furthermore, in a questionnaire-based study, SPS moderated the relationships between life skills and depressive tendencies in university students; that is, effective skills for improving depression differed according to their SPS levels (Yano, Kase, & Oishi, 2020a).…”

Furthermore, in a questionnaire-based study, SPS moderated the relationships between life skills and depressive tendencies in university students; specifically, decision-making skills were effective for low-SPS individuals, but emotional coping skills were for high-SPS individuals (Yano et al, 2021a).…”
