Abstract
We investigated the role of baseline psychopathology as a risk factor for meditation-related adverse effects (AEs). AEs were assessed using the Meditation Experiences scale in a randomized controlled trial of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. Participants with a baseline diagnosis of major depressive disorder or schizotypal personality disorder experienced significantly more AEs.
