Tyler VanderWeele:本研究采用随机对照试验,验证了REACH宽恕工作簿的有效性,该工作簿基于REACH模型,包含回忆伤害、设身处地为冒犯者着想、利他主义的宽恕提议、承诺宽恕以及坚持宽恕等步骤。研究结果表明,使用工作簿可以改善宽恕程度,减轻焦虑和抑郁症状,提高幸福感。该工作簿易于广泛传播,具有促进社区、国家甚至国际层面宽恕的潜力。 Man Yee Ho:香港的研究参与者反馈表明,宽恕工作簿帮助他们修复人际关系,重建信任,改善幸福感。宽恕是一个过程,需要时间,宽恕并不意味着必须和解。宽恕干预措施对经历社会冲突的人们有显著的积极影响。 Andrea Ortega Bechara:哥伦比亚的研究表明,宽恕干预措施对不同背景的人群(包括战争幸存者和大学生)都适用,并能有效降低焦虑和抑郁,促进幸福感。宽恕是建立可持续和平的关键,它包含认知层面(决定不报复)和情感层面(放下负面情绪)两个过程。 Shaun Joynt:由于南非的历史(种族隔离),宽恕对该国至关重要。宽恕干预措施不仅有助于个人层面上的宽恕,也有助于南非作为一个国家在减少种族紧张和冲突方面取得进展。宽恕是一个艰巨的过程,需要努力克制消极想法,设身处地为他人着想,并放下负面情绪。纳尔逊·曼德拉是宽恕的典范。 Tavia Gilbert:个人经历也印证了宽恕的重要性,即使不和解,也能通过宽恕来释放痛苦,改善自身状况。宽恕是一个艰难但重要的过程,它对个人和世界都有益处。

Chapters
The REACH Forgiveness Method, developed by Dr. Everett Worthington, is a five-step process designed to help individuals achieve forgiveness. The study aimed to test the effectiveness of a self-directed workbook based on this method, which could potentially be disseminated widely to promote forgiveness on a large scale.

Shownotes Transcript

Today is the second in a two-part series that explores the subject of forgiveness. We hear more about the ground-breaking, six-site, five-country, four-continent study of Dr. Everett Worthington’s REACH forgiveness method’s effectiveness. We’re joined in conversation with Dr. Tyler VanderWeele, project  Research Director; Principal Investigator Dr. Man Yee Ho; and site directors  Andrea Ortega Bechara (Columbia) and Dr. Shaun Joynt (South Africa). They describe the impact of the study on individual participants and their communities, how they hope to scale the study, and who they consider an exemplar of forgiveness.
