Abstract:
During the COVID-19 lockdown, a distortion of time passage has been widely reported in association with a change in daily rhythm. However, several variables related to these changes have not been considered. The purpose of the present study was to assess the changes in dispositional mindfulness, time experience, sleep timing and subjective memory functioning. A longitudinal study was conducted on 39 Italian adults (53.85% males; 35.03 ± 14.02 years) assessing mindfulness, ad hoc questions of sleep habits during workdays and free days, chronotypes, subjective time experience, and memory functioning before (December 2019-March 2020) and during (April 2020-May 2020) the first Italian COVID-19 lockdown. Participants reported delayed sleep timing, a slowdown in the perception of the present time, a decrease of time pressure, and an increase in the feeling of time expansion/boredom. In addition to correlations between mindfulness, memory functioning, and subjective sleep duration during workdays, a mediation model showed that changes in the dispositional mindfulness determined a delay of bedtime during workdays through the mediation effect of increased feeling of time expansion/boredom. This finding highlighted the role of mindfulness in reducing the feeling of time expansion/boredom for regulating the sleep timing. The theoretical and practical implications of the findings are discussed.
摘要:
在COVID-19封锁期间,时间流逝的扭曲已被广泛报道与每日节律的变化有关。然而,与这些变化相关的几个变量尚未考虑。本研究的目的是评估性格正念的变化,时间体验,睡眠时间和主观记忆功能。对39名意大利成年人(男性占53.85%;35.03±14.02岁)进行了一项纵向研究,评估了正念,关于工作日和空闲日睡眠习惯的特别问题,时间型,主观的时间经验,和记忆功能在意大利首次COVID-19封锁之前(2019年12月至2020年3月)和期间(2020年4月至2020年5月)。参与者报告睡眠时间延迟,对当前时代的感知放缓,时间压力的减少,以及时间膨胀/无聊感的增加。除了正念之间的相关性,记忆功能,和工作日的主观睡眠持续时间,调解模型显示,倾向正念的变化通过时间扩张感/无聊感增加的调解效应决定了工作日就寝时间的延迟.这一发现强调了正念在减少调节睡眠时间的时间膨胀/无聊感方面的作用。讨论了研究结果的理论和实践意义。
