Trait mindfulness in adolescents with and without Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.
Article in Research in developmental disabilities, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesMindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) are proposed to cultivate trait mindfulness through mindfulness practice, which may in turn to lead improved clinical outcomes. Individuals who report lower levels of this trait may be promising candidates for MBIs because they present with the opportunity for growth in this area. Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has been associated with low trait mindfulness, though facets of trait mindfulness and ADHD features beyond core symptoms have not been examined among youth with the disorder. The goal of this study was to examine trait mindfulness-including facets of trait mindfulness-in adolescents with and without ADHD in relation to ADHD symptoms and related ADHD characteristics.
methodsAdolescents (29 ADHD, 30 non-ADHD) and their caregivers completed measures of ADHD symptoms and related characteristics. Adolescents completed a trait mindfulness measure.
resultsThe ADHD group scored significantly lower than the non-ADHD group in trait mindfulness. ADHD symptoms and multiple related characteristics were also inversely associated with trait mindfulness. A series of regressions controlling for sex and age indicated that trait mindfulness-particularly acting with awareness-is inversely associated with ADHD symptoms, cognitive disengagement syndrome symptoms, executive functioning, and sleep.
conclusionsTrait mindfulness, particularly acting with awareness, is lower among adolescents with ADHD and is inversely associated with ADHD and related characteristics. Because mindfulness is thought to be particularly therapeutic for those low in trait mindfulness, findings indicate the need to develop MBIs for adolescents with ADHD.
