Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study is to empirically examine the significance of verbal support in a mindfulness intervention. In particular, the roles of verbal guidance during meditation and the inquiry sessions after meditation are examined. Three groups are established: a "no verbal support group" in which verbal support by the instructor is minimized, a "inquiry group" in which only questions and answers are given after meditation, and a "verbal support group" in which both guidance during meditation and inquiries are given correctly according to the instruction manual, and their effects are compared. In addition, a qualitative study is conducted using the interview method to determine what specific teaching and instructional content promoted understanding.
