Clarifying the construct of mindfulness in the context of emotion regulation and the process of change in therapy.
Abstract
Bishop et al. (this issue) propose an operational definition of mindfulness developed by a recent consensus panel. The group provides a solid empirical framework from which to develop measures of mindfulness, and they propose an exciting research agenda. We describe measurement development work from our research group that provides initial support for the proposed consensus definition and that examines mindfulness in relation to emotion regulation variables. We extend the discussion by describing how mindfulness can enhance the stabilizing and destabilizing aspects of therapeutic change, and we illustrate this in the context of our treatment program for depression. Key words: acceptance, cognitive-behavioral therapy, emotion regulation, emotion reactivity, mindfulness, meditation, therapy change processes. [Clin Psychol Sci Prac 11: 255–262, 2004] Several lines of research are converging on the idea that emotion regulation is an essential component of mental health and that problems of regulation are associated with a variety of forms of psychopathology (Cicchetti,

“Consequently, meditation practices are proposed to improve attentional control, and also reduce rumination and elaborative mental processing to diminish mental reactivity to negative or dysphoric emotional states (Bishop et al., 2004;Hayes & Feldman, 2004;Kabat-Zinn, 2003).”

“For instance, while traditional CBT teaches adaptive emotion regulation strategies of problem-solving and cognitive reappraisal (Beck, 1979), mindfulness training teaches individuals to allow their repetitive cognitive-emotional experiences to occur without trying to control them (Kabat-Zinn, 1990), thereby discouraging experiential avoidance (i.e., a tendency to supress or avoid thoughts, images,”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
