Despite the rapid global implementation of school-based mindfulness trainings (SBMTs), empirical findings regarding their effectiveness in children and adolescents remain inconsistent. Large-scale trials and recent meta-analyses have challenged early optimism, raising critical questions about for whom, under what conditions, and through which mechanisms SBMTs may be beneficial. This paper...
