Abstract

Our research explores the mutual effects of a technology-enabled mindfulness exercise and gender on task performance. In particular, we find evidence that initial task performance predicts subsequent task improvement when mindfulness is practiced. We also demonstrate the moderating influence of gender, such that the effect is significant only among males.
