Resumen
Objetivos: Este estudio pretende analizar la validación y los efectos de una intervención breve centrada en la Terapia de compasión basada en los estilos de apego (ABCT). Específicamente, se trata de evaluar la eficacia de este breve protocolo para mejorar la compasión y otras variables relacionadas. Metodo: La intervención consta de dos sesiones de cinco horas, en un ensayo controlado con un grupo de intervención (ABCT) y un grupo control. Antes y después de la intervención, se administró un cuestionario, centrado en la compasión y otras variables relacionadas (creencias de trascendencia, felicidad, solidaridad endogrupal e identidad global). Los participantes en el grupo experimental fueron 17 adultos sanos (estudiantes y profesores universitarios) que asistieron a una intervención de compasión basada en ABCT. El grupo de control estuvo compuesto por 44 participantes que no asistieron a la intervención. Resultados: Los resultados mostraron que en comparación con el grupo control, la intervención breve ABCT mejoró significativamente la compasión, que era el objetivo principal de la intervención, y un análisis posterior mostró que también aumentaron significativamente las creencias de trascendencia y la solidaridad endogrupal. Además, la intervención ABCT fue validada empíricamente. Conclusiones: Estos resultados confirman y validan el potencial de una intervención breve en ABCT.
