The attached paper reports results from a study involving weekly journal entries on mindfulness experiences recorded by students, with feedback from a mentor. The content of the journal entries was used in the design of a self-assessment that subsequently showed strong associations between the journal entries and the measured levels of mindfulness effects.

Thanks so much William. I read with interest that you suggested futher studies focus on non-arbitrary measures. My study focuses on a phenomenological approach, with the emphasis on development self awareness, as a general construct.. Also, since the participants are males, I wonder if this would illustrate differences in questions 25-28, as these items seem metacognitive in nature and perhaps would generally favour females as opposed to males?
I would recommend work by Scandinavian physiotherapists within the field of Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT, BAT), psychosomatics and psychiatry. There you can find qualitative and phenomenological research approaches to body-mind methods similar to mindfulness. I recommend studies by physiotherapy collegues like Liv Skjarven, Bergen University, Norway, Susanne Rosberg, Gothenburg University, Sweden, or Amanda Lundvik Gyllensten, Lund University, Sweden.
