Mindfulness-based interventions with youth

Articles

Grades 3-5

Adolescents

This article is a meta-analysis of 76 studies conducted to better understand the overall effect of mindfulness-based interventions with youth. Mindfulness-based interventions had a consistently positive, yet small effect on academic, social, emotional, behavioral, and physical health outcomes for youth. Results provide support for conceptualizing mindfulness-based interventions as a subtype of Social-Emotional Learning interventions, specifically for self-awareness and self-management.
