An experimental study was performed in which we studied the efects of 8 weeks of MM training on attention and awareness, as measured by the MAAS (mindfulness attention awareness scale) and perceived stress, as measured by the PSQ (perceived stress questionnaire), in 80 volunteers from the general public recruited by email from university centers. An increase in the individual’s dispositional capacity to be attentive and aware of the experience of the present moment in everyday life was observed in the experimental group versus the control group; F (2, 156)=14.30, p=.000, η2 partial=.155. Perceived stress showed no signifcant diferences between groups in: social acceptance; F (2, 156)=2.30, p=.103, overload; F (2, 156)=2.32, p=.101, irritability, tension and fatigue; F (2, 156)=2.27, p=.106, energy and joy; F (2, 156)=2.79, p=.065.
