“…Thus, emotional eating‐depression may be more strongly associated with BE severity at higher levels of non‐reactive mindfulness. These data add an important nuance to the literature that suggest that non‐reactive mindfulness is beneficial for diverse presentations of psychopathology (Hedman et al, 2017; Hicks et al, 2018), and findings from the present study should be interpreted with caution. Another possibility for this unexpected outcome considers the eating behaviors (i.e., emotional eating‐depression and BE) themselves.…”

Objectives Negative emotional eating and binge eating are positively related, occur in diverse populations, and may be driven by similar mechanisms. Mindfulness facets such as acting with awareness, describe, non‐judgement, non‐reactive, and observe may moderate the relationship between these maladaptive eating phenotypes. Method A cross‐sectional study assessed emotional eating‐depression (Emotional Eating Scale‐Revised, depression subscale), trait mindfulness facets (Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire‐Short Form), and binge eating severity (Binge Eating Scale) in adults (N = 258). Results Emotional eating‐depression was less strongly associated with binge eating severity in participants with higher acting with awareness mindfulness. Emotional eating‐depression was more strongly associated with binge eating severity in participants with higher non‐reactive mindfulness. Conclusions Acting with awareness and non‐reactive mindfulness may be important treatment targets in concurrent presentations of emotional eating‐depression and binge eating.

“…Dispositional mindfulness is thought to be a natural way of being mindful in day-to-day life and is associated with improved emotion regulation (Fogarty et al., 2013), improved mental health symptoms (Bravo et al., 2018; Hicks et al., 2018), and reduced stress (Bergin and Pakenham, 2016). There is growing interest in examining applications of mindfulness in children and parents (Thompson and Gauntlett-Gilbert, 2008; Coatsworth et al., 2010; Semple and Lee, 2014).…”

Children are confronted with an increasing amount of choices every day, which can be stressful. Decision-making skills may be one of the most important “21st century skills” that children need to master to ensure success. Many aspects of decision-making, such as emotion regulation during stressful situations, develop in the context of caregiver-child interactions. This study examined whether mindful parenting predicts children’s individual and social decision-making. The current study included 63 mother-child dyads from The Netherlands (Child Mage = 5.11, SD = 0.88, 50.8% girls). Mothers completed the Dutch version of the Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting Scale (IM-P). A “Choice Task” was developed to measure individual decision-making skills, and a “Sharing Task” was created to measure social decision-making in young children. Higher maternal mindful parenting significantly predicted more sharing after controlling for covariates (child age, sex, SES, maternal education level; Wald = 4.505, p = 0.034). No main effect of maternal mindful parenting was found for any of the individual decision-making measures. These findings suggest that mindful parenting supports children’s social decision-making. Future research should investigate if the combination of mindful parenting and children’s early decision-making skills predict key developmental outcomes.

“…Given these risk factors an antenatal Mindfulness-Based Intervention (MBI) may be a promising prevention approach for this group, since it combines peer support and psychoeducation with tools for self-regulation. Also, dispositional mindfulness seems to work as a buffer as it is associated with lower depression symptoms in pregnancy among mothers and fathers who are exposed to adversity (Hicks et al, 2018). In the past decades, the use of MBIs has increased in clinical practice.…”
