Abstract Objectives Mindfulness is widely recognized as a multidimensional construct, though some of its components have faced criticism.

Meditation research has measured isolated physiological channels for decades, but the set of peripheral signs has rarely been treated as a field — a totality whose inter-channel dependency structure is itself the observable. We tested whether a guided meditation session moves the integrated peripheral field, or only the individual signs, in the public WESAD dataset (15 subjects; within-subject...

Despite experiencing more negative life events, older adults often report better emotional well-being than younger adults, a phenomenon known as the well-being paradox. Although socioemotional selectivity theory suggests that age-related shifts toward present-moment goals may contribute to this pattern, the psychological factors underlying these age differences remain unclear. In particular,...

Abstract: Mindfulness has established psychological benefits, such as stress reduction and emotional regulation; however, the underlying computational mechanisms, particularly in relation to mind-wandering, remain unclear. This study aimed to present a hierarchical recurrent neural network-based agent model grounded in the free energy principle to explore these processes within the framework of...

Digital detox tourism has become increasingly popular, yet empirical research on its restorative mechanisms remains limited. Drawing on attention restoration theory and the mindfulness–well-being framework, this study used a two-group quasi-experiment combined with a three-wave longitudinal and dose–response design ( N = 500). Propensity score weighting was applied to a composite path analysis...

Chronic stress is a growing public health concern, with cortisol widely recognized as its primary physiological biomarker. Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), a standardized multiweek program, has shown promise in improving psychological outcomes, yet its specific effects on cortisol levels have not been meta-analyzed. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of eligible MBSR...

Buddhist meditation is widely studied in relation to mindfulness, emotion regulation, compassion, and well-being, yet it is often operationalized as an attentional or stress-reduction technique detached from the ethical and cultural conditions of practice. This article develops the ethical-cultural training ecology model, a Hypothesis and Theory framework that treats Buddhist meditation as a...

Abstract Brief mindfulness inductions are expected to enhance executive functioning and reduce mind-wandering, but empirical findings are mixed. The present study examined the effects of a 10-min mindfulness induction on executive functions and mind-wandering, and explored whether these effects were moderated by individual differences. Hypothesized moderators included trait mindfulness, prior...

Evidence for a common metacognitive ability across cognitive domains remains mixed. Previous cross-domain studies have often used similar first- and second-order response formats across tasks, making it difficult to separate common metacognitive variance from common method variance. In addition, a reanalysis of the tasks used by Mazancieux et al. showed comparatively high performance and little...

Background: Real-time fMRI neurofeedback (rt-fMRI NF) targeting ventral striatal (VS) cue reactivity has been proposed as a tool to support volitional self-regulation in individuals with problematic alcohol use, but training effects remain inconsistent. Regulation strategy is one potentially important but underexamined factor that may influence NF success. This pre-registered randomized,...
