The Assessment of Mindfulness with Self-Report Measures: Existing Scales and Open Issues (2013, background): “In fact, studies suggest that there is little or no relationship between the mindfulness state during meditation (TMS) and everyday trait mindfulness (FFMQ, CAMS-R, andMAAS; Carmody, et al. 2008; Thompson and Waltz 2007).”
Mindfulness, Big Five personality, and affect: A meta-analysis (2009, background): “For example, research has shown extraversion to be both positively (e.g., Baer, Smith, & Allen, 2004) and negatively (e.g., Thompson & Waltz, 2007; Waters, 2007) related to mindfulness.”

Comparing Self-Compassion, Mindfulness, and Psychological Inflexibility as Predictors of Psychological Health (2014, background): “In addition, Sears and Kraus (2009) found significant improvements in negative affect but not positive affect following participation in a mindfulness intervention, while Thompson and Waltz (2007) found that positive affect significantly fell for new meditators following a mindfulness intervention.”
Measuring mindfulness? An Item Response Theory analysis of the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (2010, background): “Interrelationships among scales purportedly assessing state versus trait mindfulness (e.g., Thompson & Waltz, 2007), as well as behavioral versus self-report mindfulness and predicted outcomes (Frewen, Evans, Maraj, Dozois, & Partridge, 2008) have been inconsistent.”
From a state to a trait: Trajectories of state mindfulness in meditation during intervention predict changes in trait mindfulness (2015, background): “Other studies have examined the relation between state and trait mindfulness more generally, cross-sectionally (e.g., Thompson & Waltz, 2007), but this approach does not test the directional hypothesis of increases in state mindfulness (i.e., learning) through meditation leading to increases in…”
Workplace spirituality, meditation, and work performance (2012, background): “While the practice of meditation has been empirically connected to therapeutic outcomes in the fields of nursing and health care (cf.

The Difficulty of Defining Mindfulness: Current Thought and Critical Issues (2013, background): “To make the matter even more confusing, current evidence suggests that available questionnaires that are supposed to measure the same construct of mindfulness are often uncorrelated with one another or are correlated very modestly (Baer et al. 2006; Thompson and Waltz 2007).”
Old Wine in New Bottles? The Case of Self–Compassion and Neuroticism (2017, background): “…of self-compassion, we argue that being self-kind, believing in common humanity and feeling connected to other human beings, as well as being mindful, reflect tendencies that are typically not experienced by neurotic individuals (Giluk, 2009; Saklofske & Yackulic, 1989; Thompson & Waltz, 2007).”
