以往的研究通过自我报告评估正念，它可能包括五个组成部分的技能：观察，描述，与意识，不判断的内部经验，和不反应的内部经验。这些正念要素可以用五方面正念问卷（FFMQ）来衡量。作者在有经验的冥想者和非冥想对照组中调查了FFMQ结构效度的几个方面。与预测一致，大多数正念方面与冥想体验以及心理症状和幸福感显著相关。正如预期的那样，观察方面和心理调整之间的关系随着冥想经验的变化而变化。回归和中介分析表明，几个方面的贡献独立的幸福感的预测和显着介导的冥想体验和幸福感之间的关系。调查结果支持的FFMQ的结构效度的样本组合以前没有调查。
Previous research on assessment of mindfulness by self-report suggests that it may include five component skills: observing, describing, acting with awareness, nonjudging of inner experience, and nonreactivity to inner experience. These elements of mindfulness can be measured with the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ). The authors investigated several aspects of the construct validity of the FFMQ in experienced meditators and nonmeditating comparison groups. Consistent with predictions, most mindfulness facets were significantly related to meditation experience and to psychological symptoms and well-being. As expected, relationships between the observing facet and psychological adjustment varied with meditation experience. Regression and mediation analyses showed that several of the facets contributed independently to the prediction of well-being and significantly mediated the relationship between meditation experience and well-being. Findings support the construct validity of the FFMQ in a combination of samples not previously investigated.
