在过去的二十年里，正念冥想已经从科学研究的边缘话题变成了心理治疗的偶尔替代品，企业福利的工具，广泛实施的教育实践，以及“培养更有弹性的士兵的关键”。然而，正念运动和支持它的经验证据并非没有受到批评。与过去的正念研究相关的错误信息和糟糕的方法可能会导致公众消费者受到伤害、误导和失望。为了解决这些问题，本文讨论了定义正念的困难，描述了正念实践研究的适当范围，并阐明了解释正念调查结果的关键方法论问题。为此，作者利用他们不同领域的专业知识，回顾了正念研究的现状，全面总结了我们所知道的和不知道的，同时为冥想科学提供了一个说明性的议程，特别关注评估、正念训练、可能的不利影响以及与脑成像的交叉。我们的目标是告知感兴趣的科学家、新闻媒体和公众，以尽量减少伤害，遏制不良的研究实践，并阻止关于正念冥想的好处、成本和未来前景的错误信息流。
During the past two decades, mindfulness meditation has gone from being a fringe topic of scientific investigation to being an occasional replacement for psychotherapy, tool of corporate well-being, widely implemented educational practice, and “key to building more resilient soldiers”. Yet the mindfulness movement and empirical evidence supporting it have not gone without criticism. Misinformation and poor methodology associated with past studies of mindfulness may lead public consumers to be harmed, misled, and disappointed. Addressing such concerns, the present article discusses the difficulties of defining mindfulness, delineates the proper scope of research into mindfulness practices, and explicates crucial methodological issues for interpreting results from investigations of mindfulness. For doing so, the authors draw upon their diverse areas of expertise to review the present state of mindfulness research, comprehensively summarizing what we do and do not know, while providing a prescriptive agenda for Contemplative Science, with a particular focus on assessment, mindfulness training, possible adverse effects, and intersection with brain imaging. Our goals are to inform interested scientists, the news media, and the public, in order to minimize harm, curb poor research practices, and staunch the flow of misinformation about the benefits, costs, and future prospects of mindfulness meditation.
