El objetivo de este estudio fue revisar las conclusiones de los artículos publicados en los últimos seis años sobre el uso del mindfulness en la población universitaria. Además, se examinaron cuántos de estos estudios se aplican dentro del campo de la Educación Física Universitaria. Se analizaron los artículos publicados desde 2014 hasta 2020 mediante las bases de datos ERIC, Taylor and Francis, Web of Science y SCOPUS, en base a los requerimientos de PRISMA y el modelo PICO. Se extrajo la información que sigue de los artículos seleccionados: autor, año, país, idioma, sujetos, duración, tipo de investigación (cualitativa/cuantitativa), programa de mindfulness utilizado, propósito y resultados. Como resultado se incluyeron 11 artículos. Ningún estudio fue publicado en España ni en español, siendo todos publicados en inglés y la mayoría (6 artículos) en el Reino Unido. La duración de las intervenciones varía entre 2 y doce semanas. De los 11 artículos, nueve fueron de diseño cuantitativo, uno cualitativo y uno mixto. Los resultados confirman los beneficios del mindfulness en los estudiantes universitarios mejorando su salud psicológica (estrés, ansiedad, depresión, motivación, autoaceptación) y también a nivel cognitivo y emocional. Los programas de mindfulness utilizados fueron MBI, MBCT, MBSR, MBSH y MTP. Por tanto, a pesar de los beneficios corroborados del mindfulness con la población universitaria, son escasos los estudios en el área de la Educación Física Universitaria y se estima pertinente la realización de intervenciones de mindfulness en universidades españolas para certificar su validez en estudiantes con dichas características socioculturales. The aim of this study was to review the conclusions of published papers in the last six years on the use of mindfulness in the university population. In addition, how many of these studies are applied within the field of University Physical Education were examined. Articles published from 2014 to 2020 were analysed using the ERIC, Taylor and Francis, Web of Science and SCOPUS databases, based on the PRISMA requirements and the PICO model. The following information was extracted from the selected articles: author, year, country, language, individuals, duration, type of research (qualitative / quantitative), mindfulness program used, purpose and results. As a result, 11 articles were included. Neither study was published in Spain or in Spanish, all of which were published in English and the majority (6 articles) in the United Kingdom. The duration of the interventions varies between 2 and 12 weeks. Of the 11 articles, nine were of quantitative design, one qualitative and one mixed. The results confirm the benefits of mindfulness in university students improving their psychological health (stress, anxiety, depression, motivation, self-acceptance) and also on a cognitive and emotional level. The mindfulness programs used were MBI, MBCT, MBSR, MBSH and MTP. Therefore, despite the corroborated benefits of mindfulness with the university population, there are few studies in the area of University Physical Education and it is considered pertinent to carry out mindfulness interventions in Spanish universities to certify its validity in students with these sociocultural features.

Recent evidence suggests that driving behavior and traffic safety outcomes of parents may be influenced by the extent to which they receive information and education on road safety, as well as the fact of driving with their children on board, which may increase their risk perception. However, there are no studies specifically addressing the case of crashes suffered while driving with children. Hence, this study aimed to describe the relationship between road safety education-related variables and parents’ traffic safety outcomes while driving with children on board. For this cross-sectional study, data was retrieved from a sample composed of 165 Spanish parents—all of them licensed drivers—with a mean age of 45.3 years. Through binary logistic regression (logit) analysis, it was found that factors such as gender, having received road safety education (RSE), and having been sanctioned for the performance of risky driving behavior contribute to modulating the likelihood of suffering crashes while driving with children on board. Gender differences showed a riskier status for male parents. In this study, a set of risk factors explaining the involvement in traffic crashes when driving with children as passengers was identified among parents: gender, traffic sanctions, valuation, and exposure to road safety campaigns. Also, substantial limitations in the self-reported degree of received RSE were found, especially considering that risky driving behavior and traffic crash rates with children on board still have a high prevalence among parents.

Cycling behavior remains a key issue for explaining several traffic causalities occurring every day. However, recent studies have shown how the assessment of the own safety-related behaviors on the road may substantially differ from how third parties assess them. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the differences between cyclists’ self-reported behavior and the proxy-reported behavior that other (non-cyclist) road users perceive from bike riders. For this purpose, this study used data from two samples: (i) 1064 cyclists (M = 32.83 years) answering the Cycling Behavior Questionnaire—CBQ, and (ii) 1070 non-cyclists (M = 30.83 years) answering an adapted version of the CBQ for external raters—ECBQ. The results show how the self-reported and proxy-reported behaviors of cyclists greatly differ in terms of all behavioral factors composing the CBQ model, i.e., traffic violations, riding errors, and positive behaviors. Also, external raters (non-cyclists) are those targeting significantly riskier behaviors than those self-reported by cyclists. These discrepancies between perceived behaviors may give rise to conflicting viewpoints on the interaction between bicycle riders and other road users. Therefore, this study underscores the importance of behavioral awareness, providing highlights for future studies on the behavioral interaction between cyclists and other road users. Results can be used to improve the road safety of all road users by giving indications on self-and proxy-perceived safety-related behaviors and visibility of protective riding habits.
