Mindfulness, Metacognition and Neuropsychological Functioning in Indian Men with Opioid Dependence: Implications for Addiction Recovery and Rehabilitation.
Ann Neurosci March 23, 2026
This study examines mindfulness, metacognition, and neuropsychological functioning in Indian men with opioid dependence, focusing on implications for addiction recovery and rehabilitation. The research likely compares these cognitive and psychological factors between individuals with opioid dependence and healthy controls, or assesses their relationships within the dependent group. Findings suggest that deficits in mindfulness and metacognitive abilities may be linked to poorer neuropsychological performance, potentially impacting recovery outcomes. The authors propose that incorporating mindfulness-based interventions into rehabilitation programs could enhance cognitive functioning and support long-term recovery from opioid addiction.
