マインドフルネス特性と反復思考の関連に対する心理的ウェルビーイングの媒介効果

抄録

The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating effect of psychological well-being (PWB) on the relationship between trait mindfulness and repetitive negative thinking (RNT). RNT is a common factor in several mental illnesses, and a high level of trait mindfulness is reported to reduce it. Moreover, trait mindfulness is reported to promote PWB, and PWB is expected to reduce RNT. Results of an online survey of 152 individuals and mediation analysis showed that PWB significantly mediated the relationship between trait mindfulness and RNT. The results suggest that trait mindfulness may reduce RNT by promoting PWB.
