Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Mindfulness-Based Attention Training for Teams (MBAT-T)

Teams randomized to this group will receive 4, 2-2.5-hour sessions delivered over 4 weeks of mindfulness training and 15 minutes of daily, out-of-class mindfulness exercises, that will be delivered and tracked using a measuring mindfulness application.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

MBAT-T

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The MBAT-Team program builds on the basic 4-week, 8-hour MBAT-Soldier program. In addition to the basic program, MBAT-Team includes exercises promoting the cultivation of attention and emotion regulation in the service of effective team interactions (e.g., mindful communication and listening; monitoring and attention to the activities and emotional states of others, and additional practices to promote collective mindfulness).

Mindfulness-Based Attention Training for Individuals (MBAT-I)

Individuals randomized to this group will receive 4, 2-2.5-hour sessions delivered over 4 weeks of mindfulness training and 15 minutes of daily, out-of-class mindfulness exercises, that will be delivered and tracked using a measuring mindfulness application.
