Intensive mindfulness training-related changes in cognitive and emotional experience (2009, positive): “Chambers et al. (2008) found that 10 days of intensive mindfulness training improved novice meditators’ executive functioning (working memory and attention), self-reported dispositional mindfulness, and psychological symptoms (depression and rumination) as compared to a wait-list control group.”
Mindfulness at Work: A New Approach to Improving Individual and Organizational Performance (2015, background): “Chambers, Lo, and Allen (2008) similarly found significant improvements in working memory performance and sustained attention in participants in an intensive 10-daymindfulness meditation retreat as comparedwith individuals in a control group.”
What Facets of Mindfulness Contribute to Psychological Well-being and Depressive, Anxious, and Stress-related Symptomatology? (2010, background): “In addition, a number of studies have demonstrated positive effects of mindfulness meditation practices such as Vipassana on psychological symptoms and well-being (Bowen et al. 2006; Chambers et al. 2008; Easterlin and Cardena 1998 Ostafin et al. 2006).”
Mindfulness meditation training for sport (MMTS) intervention: Impact of MMTS with division I female athletes (2014, background): “These findings are consistent with previous research using mindfulness meditation training with a general non-clinical population (Chambers et al., 2008) and with competitive athletes (De Petrilloet al., 2009; Kabat-Zinn et al., 1985; Kaufman et al., 2009; Thompson et al., 2011).”
Behavioural Brain Research (2016, neutral): “Error bars show the standard error of the mean”
Contemplation in the Classroom: a New Direction for Improving Childhood Education (2015, background): “2009), and shortterm mindfulness-meditation training has been found to improve performance on a variety of executive function measures in adults (Chambers et al. 2008; Heeren et al. 2009; Tang et al. 2007; Zeidan et al. 2010; Zylowska et al. 2008).”
The Brief State Rumination Inventory (BSRI): Validation and Psychometric Evaluation (2018, background): “…predicted that state rumination would be positively related to suppression (Gross & John, 2003), and negatively associated with helpful forms of emotion regulation, such as reappraisal (D’Avanzanto, Joormann, Siemer, & Gotlib, 2013) and mindfulness (Chambers, Lo, & Allen, 2008; Gross & John, 2003).”
Longitudinal Relations of Children’s Effortful Control, Impulsivity, and Negative Emotionality to Their Externalizing, Internalizing, and Co-Occurring Behavior Problems (2009, positive): “One would expect internalizing problems to be associated with problems in attentional control because the latter is believed to be important in regulating anxiety and the rumination that is linked with depression (Chambers et al., 2008; Nolen-Hoeksama et al., 2007; Whitmer & Banich, 2007).”
