Abstract
Past research suggest beneficial effects of mindfulness intervention on cognitive functions. In the current study, we examined whether a brief mindfulness intervention improves perceptual decision making among 64 college students. We found that higher trait mindfulness predicted enhanced task performance in the mindfulness group, but not in the lecture group.
