Effects of Mindfulness on Psychological Health: A Review of Empirical Studies (2011, result): “These findings are consistent with the association of mindfulness with greater self-reported ability to let go of negative thoughts about the self (e.g., Frewen et al., 2008).”
The Mediating Effects of Mindfulness and Self-Compassion on Trait Anxiety (2014, background): “Internal consistency of the KIMS is high (.87); alpha coefficients range for the four subscales are as follows: observing (.85–.91), accepting without judgment (.87–.88), describing (.84–.93), and acting with awareness (.76–.83; Baer et al. 2004; Baer et al. 2006; Frewen et al. 2008).”
The Assessment of Mindfulness with Self-Report Measures: Existing Scales and Open Issues (2013, background): “The development of such measures is attracting increasing interest (see Bishop et al. 2004; Brown and Ryan 2003; Burg and Michalak 2010; Collins et al. 2009; Davidson 2010; Dobkin 2008; Frewen et al. 2008; Williams 2010).”
Mindfulness meditation training for sport (MMTS) intervention: Impact of MMTS with division I female athletes (2014, background): “However, mindfulness meditation practice is expected to enhance mindfulness, which has been demonstrated to help the individual reduce the experience of negative thinking (Frewen et al., 2008), to reduce the aversive impact of stress (Baear, 2003), which can lead to enhanced athletic performance (Jo”
Mind The Hype: A Critical Evaluation and Prescriptive Agenda for Research on Mindfulness and Meditation (2017, neutral): “Some promise exists toward more accurate mindfulness measures via subjective report of behavioral indicators (e.g., breath counting; Frewen, Evans, Maraj, Dozois, & Partridge, 2007; Frewen, Lundberg, MacKinley, & Wrath, 2011; Levinson, Stoll, Kindy, Merry, & Davidson, 2014).”
Incremental Validity of Components of Mindfulness in the Prediction of Satisfaction with Life and Depression (2010, background): “Several studies have found a robust inverse relationship between negative cognitions and mindfulness (Frewen et al. 2008; Ramel et al. 2004) indicating that these variables share variance.”
Trait mindfulness at work: A meta-analysis of the personal and professional correlates of trait mindfulness (2017, result): “Although there have been some comparisons of the MAAS and FFMQ scales (e.g., Erisman & Roemer, 2012; Frewen et al., 2008; Sirios & Tosti, 2012), these studies have focused on health outcomes, and little has been done to compare the predictive validity of these various scales (e.g., FFMQ, FMI, MAAS)…”
Mindfulness, Psychological Flexibility and Emotional Schemas (2012, background): “Additionally, previous research has implicated mindfulness in the capacity to let go of negative thoughts and increased cognitive flexibility (Frewen et al., 2008).”
Measuring Mindfulness: First Steps Towards the Development of a Comprehensive Mindfulness Scale (2012, background): “Moreover, some interesting propositions and developments have been made with regard to methods of assessing mindfulness that do not rely on self-reports (for example Bishop et al. 2004; Burg and Michalak 2010; Collins et al. 2009; Dobkin 2008; Frewen et al. 2008).”
