Computational modeling can illuminate how meditation alters cognition and predict how those effects transfer to new tasks. The authors argue that such models clarify similarities and differences among meditation practices, helping map the landscape of contemplative techniques. Although computational modeling has rarely been applied to meditation research, the authors contend it holds significant promise for advancing the field.
