The components of mindfulness include awareness and acceptance. However, the effects of awareness and acceptance on psychological stress in adolescents remain controversial, and the underlying cognitive processes less attention. Therefore, this study aimed to examine their independent effects, and the relevant cognitive processes. A cross-sectional survey study (Study 1, N = 3304, Mage = 15.53...
This study builds on brief focused mindfulness meditation (BFMM) to examine its associations with physiological indices and electroencephalographic (EEG) neural features related to stress in young adults. In addition, deep learning models are employed to identify complex, nonlinear patterns in EEG signals during BFMM, aiming to determine the most effective classification model. Twenty-nine...

Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) has demonstrated its effectiveness in reducing pain-related stress in adults with chronic pain. However, the implementation of MBSR needs modifications across cultures. This pilot study reports the findings of a randomized controlled trial that investigated the effects of a culturally adaptive MBSR program on self-report and neuroimaging outcomes for...

Abstract Our study seeks to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying brief mindfulness meditation through the utilization of electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings and machine learning techniques. Twenty-four participants underwent mindfulness training, with pre- and post-practice physiological assessments and EEG recordings. Deep learning was used to analyze EEG data to predict mindfulness...
