Abstract: This meta-analysis included 110 effect sizes extracted from 57 studies (journal articles and doctoral dissertations), with a total number of 18,515 participants. Overall, the results showed that decentering mediated the relationship between mindfulness and psychological problems. Moderator analyses suggested that the mediating effects were consistent across age and clinical status.
