Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This study examines the feasibility and effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) in five Dutch prisons using a retrospective pre-post design with twenty-two inmates, ten staff members, and four instructors. Participants reported satisfaction and perceived improvements in stress, coping, impulse control, aggression, and self-esteem, while challenges were primarily logistical. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in the practical implementation and subjective outcomes of mindfulness interventions within correctional settings.
