Association of Loneliness and Mindfulness in Substance Use Treatment Retention
Overview
This study examines the relationship between loneliness, mindfulness, and retention in medication-assisted outpatient treatment for opioid use disorder among 80 participants in Appalachia. The results indicate that while loneliness, depression, and anxiety did not predict treatment dropout, lower levels of mindfulness were significantly associated with non-retention. The authors suggest these findings support integrating mindfulness training into treatment programs to improve engagement.
