Abstract

Despite theoretical presumptions that higher self-directed mindfulness is associated with less prejudice, empirical evidence has not supported this. The current six studies assessed a new measure of mindfulness evaluating nonjudgmental regard towards others, rather than the self. This measure accounted for significant variance in prejudiced attitudes beyond pre-existing indicators.
