Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Prior research showed that mindfulness training (MT), as a resilience-building program in civilian and military servicemembers, can effectively protect against degradation in of executive functions (i.e., attention, working memory) and benefit psychological well-being over high-demand intervals. While research evidence mounts that MT is beneficial for service members, there is almost no research examining the impact of MT on military spouses' cognitive functioning and psychological well-being.
The present study aims to investigate if MT may successfully benefit cognitive functioning and psychological well-being in military spouses.
