ABSTRACT

Estudiamos la eficacia de la Técnica de Relajación Sugestiva Breve Automatizada integrada en AIRE, un programa cognitivo conductual para dejar de fumar, en un diseño de dos grupos (control GC y experimental GE) con medidas pre/post. La variable independiente tomó dos valores: relajación y reposo. Los efectos se evaluaron en dos variables dependientes: ansiedad estado (AE) y frecuencia cardiaca (FC). Los participantes fueron 138 estudiantes universitarios, de 21,29 años de media, 79,7% mujeres. Se hallaron diferencias significativas en AE pero no en FC comparando GE y GC. Hubo una reducción significativa pre/post en ambas variables dependientes tanto en el GE como en el GC, siendo menores en este último. Un mayor número de personas bajo la condición de relajación frente a la de reposo obtuvieron resultados beneficiosos. Concluimos que la técnica automática de Relajación Breve Sugestiva es eficaz a la hora de reducir el estado de ansiedad (AU)


To investigate the effectiveness of the Automated Suggestive Brief Relaxation of AIRE (a cognitive behavioural approach for smoking cessation) we conducted a study on two groups: control (CG) and experimental (EG), with pre/post measures. The independent variable had two values: rest and relaxation. In order to assess the main effects we used two dependent variables: state anxiety (SA) and heart rate (HR). Participants were 138 undergraduate students, with an average age of 21.29 years, and 79,7% women. Significant differences were found in SA but not in HR between EG and CG. There was a significant reduction in both pre/post dependent variables in both the EG and CG, though less in the latter. A larger number of participants obtained greater benefits under the relaxation versus the resting condition. We conclude that the Automated Brief Relaxation technique is efficacious for reducing state anxiety (AU)
