TL;DR: Results support use of the SCS to examine 6 subscale scores or a total score, but not separate scores representing compassionate and uncompassionate self-responding, while fit was excellent using ESEM for the 6-factor correlated, single-bifactor and correlated 2- bifactor models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mindfulness, Eating Behaviours, and Obesity: A Review and Reflection on Current Findings.
TL;DR: It is concluded that while mindfulness meditations that specifically focus on eating may be extremely helpful in promoting better eating behaviours, and assist in weight regulation, work is still needed to make such interventions appeal to a wider audience.
Journal ArticleDOI
Making concrete construals mindful: A novel approach for developing mindfulness and self-compassion to assist weight loss
TL;DR: The concrete construal diaries may promote mindfulness and self-compassion and potentially promote long-term weight loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring Mindfulness and Mindfulness with Self-Compassion-Centered Interventions to Assist Weight Loss: Theoretical Considerations and Preliminary Results of a Randomized Pilot Study
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored whether developing mindfulness and self-compassion through meditation supports weight loss and maintenance, and they found that developing both of them appears more promising for weight loss than developing mindfulness alone or simply dieting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Group vs. single mindfulness meditation: Exploring avoidance, impulsivity, and weight management in two separate mindfulness meditation settings
Michail Mantzios,Kyriaki Giannou +1 more
TL;DR: Seeing that benefits and limitations observed in group settings are not replicated when people meditate alone, this study concluded that mindfulness meditation in individual settings needs to be used with caution, although there are some potential benefits that could aid future weight loss research.
