Mindfulness Interventions for College Students with ADHD: A Multiple Single Case Research Design
Lester, Ethan G.; Murrell, Amy R.
Journal of College Student Psychotherapy, v33 n3 p199-220 2019
A multiple single case research design (SCRD) was used to examine two mindfulness interventions (MBSR and Vipassana meditation). Impacted symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), psychological distress, mindfulness, and treatment satisfaction in college students were examined via single subject and group analyses. Results indicated that 57% of the seven-person sample evidenced decreases in ADHD symptoms, 72% decreased in distress, 72% increased on the trait measure of mindfulness, and treatment satisfaction was high. Clinical implications and future directions are discussed.
