Abstract
SALCIDO-CIBRIAN, Liliana; JIMENEZ-JIMENEZ, Óliver; RAMOS, Natalia and SANCHEZ-CABADA, Mario. Grief intervention and Mindfulness. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2021, vol.17, n.1, pp.151-161. Epub Dec 30, 2020. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/10.15332/22563067.6537.
This study assesses the effect of an intervention adapted from the Full Emotional Intelligence Program (PINEP, for its initials in Spanish) in adults who have suffered the loss of a loved one. The intervention lasted twelve sessions, two and a half hours per week. The sample consisted of 17 adults ranging in age from 26 to 71 years (M= 50.59; SD = 14.44). Participants who completed the intervention showed an increased tolerance to distress by developing mindfulness skills, and a decrease in state anxiety, trait anxiety, and depression. Therefore, PINEP, as an emotional management program promotes acceptance as a psychological strategy, in the face of emotional vulnerability and psychological suffering.
