Show moreMindfulness refers to the ability to think in the present moment and to be cognizant of one's own thoughts and physical state. We examined whether openness to experience and religiosity affected the experience of mindfulness. Undergraduate college students underwent a 55-minute session learning about mindfulness techniques and various meditations such as body relaxation meditation, a nature meditation, and a guided imagery meditation. After completing the session, participants completed post-treatment questionnaires and one week later they completed follow-up questionnaires. Participants showed an increase in mindfulness immediately following the session and one week later. They also experienced a decrease in stress one week later. In addition, openness to experience was positively correlated with general mindfulness, mindfulness experienced during the session, and mindfulness experienced one week later. The findings and their implications for college student mental health will be discussed.
