Minds “At Attention”: Mindfulness Training Curbs Attentional Lapses in Military Cohorts

This study, published in the Public Library of Science, investigated the impact of mindfulness training program (MT) on attentional performance lapses in military cohorts. A didactic-focused and a training-focused were administered. The overall findings show while protracted periods of high-demand military training may increase attentional performance lapses, training-focused MT may bolster attentional performance more than didactic-focused programs. As such, training-focused MT programs should be further examined.
