This mediation effect showed that changes in decentering preceded improvements in emotion dysregulation. We identified a serial mediation model in which DBT-M reduced BPD symptoms by increasing decentering ability, which in turn reduced emotion dysregulation. Results : The analyses showed that DBT-M was more effective than DBT-IE in reducing BPD symptoms, although both interventions were effective in reducing emotion dysregulation. Multivariate repeated-measures ANOVAs were performed followed by a multiple mediation analysis. Method: A total of 102 participants diagnosed with BPD were included in the study. We also evaluated the specific mechanism of action of these therapies through two proposed mediators: decentering and emotion dysregulation.

The aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of mindfulness-based DBT skills training (DBT-M) to interpersonal effectiveness-based DBT skills training (DBT-IE) in reducing BPD symptoms.
