Abstract
OLAYA LOPEZ, Ángela María; BENAVIDES RIOS, Andrea Patricia; DELGADO FONSECA, Jesús Antonio and GARCIA BELINCHON, Laura. Effects of mindfulness-based interventions on occupational stress in police officers: a systematic review. Rev Asoc Esp Espec Med Trab [online]. 2023, vol.32, n.4, pp.345-354. Epub Jan 15, 2024. ISSN 3020-1160.
Objective:
To describe the effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions on occupational stress in police officers.
Material and Methods:
A systematic review was carried out based on the literature published from 2014 to december 2021. Quality was assessed using the CONSORT and TREND questionnaires and the level of evidence and degree of recommendation using the SIGN tool.
Results:
80 references were identified and 10 studies met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 7 studies reported statistically significant differences in stress levels after the mindfulness intervention.
Conclusions:
The results of this systematic review demonstrate the effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions in reducing occupational stress in police officers. These interventions also confer protective benefits such as improved sleep quality and decreased alcohol consumption.
Keywords : mindfulness; occupational stress; police; law enforcement officer.
