“…There is also a meaningful relationship between conscious awareness, one of the three basic components of self-understanding. It is necessary to evaluate together with conscious awareness to develop patience (Collard & Walsh,[9]). Conscious awareness exercises increase creative thinking, memory and patience.…”

The main objective of this study was to determine the relationship between self-determination, self-compassion and the five-factor personality traits of university students. Moreover it was aimed to determine whether self-compassion, self-determination and personality traits predict patience levels at a meaningful level. The sample population of this research consisted of a total of 1166 students; 704 female and 462 male students from the Universities of Bartın, Batman, Konya Necmettin Erbakan and Selçuk. The age range of the students was 17-30 and the average age was 20.89. The method used to determine students' patience points was the patience scale, which was developed by Schnitker [43] and adapted to Turkish by researchers Eliükük and Arslan [16]. The Self-Compassion Scale (Deniz, Kesici & Sümer,[15]), the Adjective Based Personality Test (SDKT) (Bacanlı, İlhan & Arslan, [2]) were used in order to determine the self-compassion scores and the Autonomous Self-Determination Scale (Ersoy & Güldü,[15]) was used to determine the self-determination scores. As a result of the research, a positive relationship was found between all sub-dimensions of patience and self-compassion. There was a significant relationship between the sub-dimensions of patience and the sub-dimension of self-determination. A positive correlation was found between the sub-dimensions of patience and Agreeableness, Openness to experiences and conscientious and a negative relation with Neuroticism. When self-compassion, self-determination and the five-factor personality traits were evaluated separately and together, it was seen that they can predict all sub-dimensions of patience.

“…To achieve the purpose of the MEL training, a mindfulness-based group coaching [65][66][67][68][69][70] with specific training based on study strategies and techniques [12][13][14][15] was used. The assumption of the study was that specific variables, characterizing three facets of effective learning, could be improved by the MEL training.…”

“…The short 10-week intervention assessed in this pilot study, called MEL, designed as mindfulness-based group coaching [65][66][67][68][69][70] with specific training based on study strategies and techniques [12][13][14][15], aimed at improving learning effectiveness among university students. According to the existing literature [2,9,10], the starting point of this paper was that the learning effectiveness depends simultaneously on metacognitive and affective skills in addition to cognitive and academic knowledge and skills that can be classified in the following three aspects: self-regulation in study [1,2], emotion regulation [4][5][6], and motivation [3,8,11].…”

“…Starting from the benefits that mindfulness and coaching separately give, several authors have introduced mindfulness in the coaching setting in order to enhance their effectiveness [65][66][67][68][69][70]. In particular Cavanagh and Spence [65] emphasize "acceptance" as a factor present in coaching and mindfulness so that the latter can promote the effectiveness of coaching; Collard and Walsh [66] have introduced a mindfulness training in coaching to reduce stress in the coachees and make coaching more effective; Kemp [67] states that coaching and mindfulness are both aspects of education and training and that it might be useful to integrate the two approaches; Passmore and Marianetti [69], first proposed mindfulness for coachees as well as coaches and said that coaching can be improved by a preparatory mindfulness training; finally, Virgili [70] introduced the "Mindfulness-based Coaching" and underlined the importance, in terms of effectiveness, of the attention given to the present moment and of the non-judgmental awareness introduced by the mindfulness in the coaching session.…”

This pilot study investigated the effects of a short 10-module intervention called MEL (Mindful Effective Learning), which integrates mindfulness, coaching, and training on study strategies, to improve learning abilities among university students. Inspired by ample research on the learning topics that points out how effective learning and good academic results depend simultaneously on self-regulation while studying combined with emotional and motivational factors, the intervention aimed to train students simultaneously in these three aspects. The intervention group participants (N = 21) and the control group participants (N = 24) were surveyed pre- and post-intervention with the Italian questionnaire AMOS (Abilities and Motivation to Study) and the Italian version of the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS). The results showed that, regarding self-regulation in study, trained students improved their self-awareness, self-evaluation ability, metacognition skills, and organizational and elaborative ability to manage study materials; regarding emotional aspects, they improved their anxiety control; regarding motivation they developed an incremental theory of Self and improved their confidence in their own intelligence. Moreover, two follow-up self-report surveys were conducted, and trained students reported positive assessments of the MEL intervention. Findings suggest that a short intervention based on mindfulness and coaching and training on study strategies may improve students’ effective learning.

“…Approaching and solving problems are two behavioral techniques which may modify environmental context in which the person lives during treatment, thereby alleviating the potential negative events that could play as risk factors for depression (Dobson et al, 2008). Although CBT has the approach of change, in MBCT, the base is observance and acceptance with no need to change (Brown & Ryan, 2003;Collard & Walsh, 2008). MBCT has minimum or no effect in patients with fewer episodes (Ma, 2002;Teasdale, Segal, & Williams, 2003), and mean episodes of depression in our cases was 2.2.…”

Objective: Sexual dysfunction is frequently reported as a side effect of many antidepressant medications. As a result, for those depressed patients to whom sexual desire is important, psychological treatment may be a better intervention. Thus, the present study aimed to determine the possible changes in sexual desire following psychological treatments in depression, when focus of therapy is not on sexual function.Methods: This is a quasi-experimental study, which was conducted in Tehran, Iran. A total of 281 depressed patients in the remission phase underwent psychological treatments, either cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT, n=131) or mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT, n=150). The therapy did not focus on any aspect of sexual function. Using a single item measure before and after treatment, sexual desire of the patients was categorized into intact, mild, moderate, or severe decline. A total of 255 participants completed the study questionnaires and were randomly assigned to CBT (122) and MBCT groups (133). Before therapy, 128(50.2%) participants were categorized in intact sexual desire group, 73(28.6%) in mild sexual desire dysfunction group, 40(15.7%) in moderate sexual desire dysfunction group, and 14(5.5%) in severe sexual desire dysfunction group. Logistic regression was used for analyzing the data by SPSS-16. Results Conclusion:CBT might be superior to MBCT in improving sexual desire in patients with depression. Further studies using validated sexual function questionnaires are necessary.
