Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective is to check whether a training program in mindfulness and self-pity based on a 4-session intervention (abbreviated program) is as effective as the standard 8-session MBSR program in reducing work stress and burnout in tutors and residents of Medicine and Family and Community Nursing.

It is a controlled clinical trial, randomized by cluster, of three parallel arms, multicentric. Six teaching units (ratio 1: 1: 1) will be randomized to one of the three study groups: 1) Experimental Group-8 (EG8); 2) Experimental Group-4 (EG4); 3) Control group (CG).

At least 132 subjects will participate, 44 in the EG8, 44 in the EG4 and 44 in the CG.

The interventions will be based on the MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) program, to which some of the practices of the MSC (Mindful Self-Compassion) program will be added.

The EG8 intervention will be carried out during 8 weekly sessions of 2.5 hours, while the EG4 intervention will be of 4 sessions of 2.5 hours. The participants will have to practice at home for 30 minutes / day in the EG8 and 15 minutes / day in the EG4.

In the 3 groups the questionnaires FFMQ (mindfulness), SCS (self-pity), ordinal scale (0-10) and questionnaire PSQ (perceived stress) and MBI (burnout) will be passed. Empathy will also be measured, through the EEMJ, anxiety and depression disorders (EADG) and self-perceived health status.
