Poster Session III - Research Proposal Posters

Keyword: Mindfulness and Meditation

Abstract: Trait mindfulness has been associated with strengthened stress coping. However, the mechanisms underlying this effect are understudied and current findings are mixed. The dynamic interaction between rates of awareness and nonjudgement might have an impact on the expression of physiological stress responses, however no evidence for this effect exists.
