Mindfulness-based interventions generally include compassion implicitly, but it remains to be seen whether implicit compassion
training can be effective, or if it needs to be trained explicitly through specific meditations and relational practices. This research
study had two specific goals. The first was to expand the literature on the effects of compassion-based interventions (CBIs) by
assessing the impact of the Compassion Cultivation Training program (CCT) on anxiety, depression, stress, life satisfaction,
happiness, mindfulness, empathy, self-compassion, compassion for others, and identification with all humanity, through a waitlist
randomized controlled trial in a community sample (study 1). Secondly, this research addressed the following question: Does
a CBI—an explicit compassion training—have a differential impact in terms of empathy, compassion, and identification with all
humanity, compared to a mindfulness-based intervention (mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR)) in which compassion is
taught implicitly? (study 2). Groups were assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and 2-month follow-up, and analyses involved
repeated-measures of analysis of variance (ANOVA) for group contrasts. Compared to the wait-list group, CCT participants
showed significant improvements in psychological well-being (decreased depression and stress, increases in life satisfaction,
happiness, mindfulness, and self-compassion) and compassion skills. Both MBSR and CCT were effective in generally enhancing
psychological well-being and increasing mindfulness and compassion, but CCT had a greater impact on developing compassionate
skills, especially empathic concern and identification with all humanity. This research highlights the potential for a
complementary (rather than competitive) relationship between mindfulness- and compassion-based interventions. [-]
