BERTOLIN GUILLEN, José Manuel. Efficacy-effectiveness of mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) programme: an update. Rev. Asoc. Esp. Neuropsiq. [online]. 2015, vol.35, n.126, pp.289-307. ISSN 2340-2733.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0211-57352015000200005.

The mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) programme is a structured, multimodal and unespecific instructive or psychoeducative intervention. It has been designed to improve the participants' mindfulness focused on the present time. Its effectiveness has been proved in chronic pain (including fibromyalgia), recurrent depression or with residual symptoms, stress in general and in diverse anxiety disorders, as well as in certain medical conditions such as cancer, resistant epilepsy, psoriasis and HIV, among others. The evidential body that has been accumulated to date is highly promising strongly indicative of the benefits of MBSR in the short and medium term. However, more appropriate studies are needed in order to confirm the benefits of MBSR in the long term. Powerful studies with good methodological quality are also needed in order to confirm the efficacy and effctiveness of MBSR.
