Overview
Brief Summary
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.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Degree of burnout
Time Frame: Change from baseline at 4 weeks (EG4) or 8 weeks (EG8 or CG)
Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI). Spanish version of the MBI-HSS25. It consists of 22 scoring items from 0 to 6 that measure the three dimensions of the syndrome: emotional fatigue (CE), 9 items and a maximum score of 54 points; depersonalization (DP), 5 items and maximum score of 30 points; personal fulfillment (RP), 8 items and maximum score of 48 points. The cut points used were: emotional fatigue under \<19, moderate 19-26, high\> 26. Depersonalization under \<6, moderate 6-9, high\> 9. Personal performance under\> 39, moderate 39-34, high \<34 .
Degree of occupational stress
Time Frame: Change from baseline at 4 weeks (EG4) or 8 weeks (EG8 or CG)
PSQ questionnaire (Perceived Stress Questionnaire). It consists of 30 items that can be scored using a Likert scale (1 to 4). Higher total values indicate more stress.
Degree of Self-Compassion
Time Frame: Change from baseline at 4 weeks (EG4) or 8 weeks (EG8 or CG)
Self-compassion questionnaire. The short scale of the Spanish version, validated by García-Campayo et al, will be used, with 12 items scored using a Likert scale (1 to 5) that measures how the subject usually acts towards himself in difficult moments. It consists of six subscales: self-friendliness, common humanity, mindfulness, and their opposites: self-judgment, isolation and over-identification. Higher total values indicate more self-pity.
Secondary Outcomes
- Degree of empathy(Change from baseline at 4 weeks (EG4) or 8 weeks (EG8 or CG))
