Abstract
Cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) is a significant problem for cancer survivors, but mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) significantly decreases its impact. Using data from a randomized trial, mediational analyses suggested that MBSR exerted its effects by increasing MBSR-specific abilities (e.g., non-reactivity to internal states).
