Overview

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

This randomized controlled trial examines whether increased mindfulness mediates the psychological benefits of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) in 60 community members with distress symptoms. The study compares MBSR participants to a waiting-list control group, measuring changes in stress, quality of life, and mindfulness levels. Results indicate that while MBSR significantly reduced stress and improved quality of life compared to the control group, these effects were no longer significant when mindfulness was controlled for, suggesting mindfulness partially mediates the intervention's impact.
