Mindfulness based stress reduction and citizenship education: A systemic review of the empirical literature

Abstract

Mindfulness based stress reduction has been proven effective in education on several metrics of analysis, but no quantitative research has been conducted within citizenship education. Analysis was conducted across four databases, examining the field work available within citizenship education and mindfulness based stress reduction. A comprehensive and systematic review of the research base was conducted to identify the existing empirical evidence of mindfulness based stress education's impact on citizenship education (American Psychological Association Survey Shows Teen Stress Rivals That of Adults, 2014).
