The effect of mindfulness training on working memory is unclear. The current study sought to confirm the impact of mindfulness training on working memory for facial stimuli and to reveal the cognitive mechanisms underlying this effect by using drift-diffusion modeling (DDM). Using a delayed match-to-sample task with facial stimuli, we measured memory performance across five emotional categories...
Background: The present study investigated the sustained effects of a 5-week EmotionCore mindfulness training program on emotion regulation, emotional intelligence (EI), trait mindfulness, depression, and anxiety among 120 undergraduates, while exploring the mediating mechanisms of training effect and heterogeneous effects across subgroups. Methods: Participants were randomly assigned to a...
Mindfulness training has been shown to improve emotional symptoms such as anxiety and depressive symptoms. However, its cognitive-behavioral mechanism is still unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of mindfulness training on attention to emotional faces and its role in the improvement in emotional symptoms. Eighty participants were recruited and randomly divided into a...
Abstract:The brain often switches freely between focused attention and divergent thinking, and the default mode network (DMN) is activated during brain rest. The discovery, function and characteristics of default mode network all indicate that learning does not stop when the brain "rests". Mental disease can lead to dysfunctional default mode networks, which affects learning adversely....
