  • The effectiveness of digital interventions for enhancing empathy in adults

    Open AccessCamille Y Williams, Qiang Xie et al.ARTICLECurrent Psychology2026

    The current study examined the effectiveness of digital interventions for enhancing empathy in adults. We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of interventions compared with non-specific (i.e., not intended to be therapeutic) and active control conditions (i.e., intended to be therapeutic). Across 24 studies, including 26 comparisons ( n = 3,137), the overall estimated effect size was statistically significant ( g = 0.…

  • Sexual Violence and Shame

    Open AccessPadideh Hassanpour, Sara Buchwald et al.ARTICLETrauma Violence & Abuse2026

    Although sexual violence (SV) has been hypothesized to increase shame, the relationship between SV and shame has not been quantified. Addressing this gap is essential for developing targeted interventions for survivors, as shame is a transdiagnostic risk factor for numerous forms of psychopathology and a barrier to service-seeking. This meta-analysis first examines whether individuals exposed to SV demonstrate higher shame than individuals who re…

    The COVID‐19 pandemic has exacerbated preexisting mental health disparities. In India, marginalization based on caste membership, gender, and rural residence are critical determinants of inequity across the lifespan. Guided by the theoretical frameworks of minority stress and intersectionality, this study examined caste‐based disparities in fear of coronavirus (FOC), mental health symptoms, and perceived loneliness amongst rural women in north In…

  • Educators Are Not Alright

    Open AccessMatthew J Hirshberg, Richard J Davidson et al.ARTICLEEducational Researcher2023Citada por: 3Referencias: 7

    Educator mental health sits at the intersection of multiple pressing educational issues.

Most participants reported clinically meaningful anxiety and depressive symptoms (77.96% and 53.65%, respectively). Being in the lowest strata of family income was associated with higher stress, a greater likelihood of clin…

  • The Empirical Status of Mindfulness-Based Interventions

    Open AccessStephen B Goldberg, Kevin M Riordan et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Psychological…2022

    In response to questions regarding the scientific basis for mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs), we evaluated their empirical status by systematically reviewing meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). We searched six databases for effect sizes based on four or more trials that did not combine passive and active controls. Heterogeneity, moderators, tests of publication bias, risk of bias, and adverse effects were also extracted. R…

  • Linkages between Psychedelics and Meditation in a Population-Based Sample in the United States

    Open AccessOtto Simonsson, Stephen B GoldbergARTICLEJournal of Psychoactive Drugs2022

    There are neurophysiological and phenomenological overlaps between psychedelic and meditative states, but there is little evidence on how exposure to psychedelics might be associated with meditation-related variables. We assessed lifetime classic psychedelic use, ego dissolution during one's most intense experience using a classic psychedelic, and exposure to meditation in a representative sample (n = 953) of American adults. Those who reported e…

  • Brief breath awareness training yields poorer working memory performance in the context of acute stress

    Stephen B Goldberg, Lisa Flook et al.ARTICLECognition & Emotion2021

    Mindfulness-based interventions that span multiple sessions over time appear to confer psychological benefits. However, the effects of brief periods of mindfulness meditation training are less clear, particularly on measures of cognitive functioning. This study assessed whether brief mindfulness practice (breath awareness) or training in two other contemplative practices – loving-kindness and gratitude – differentially impact working memory perfo…

  • Promoting prosocial behavior and self-regulatory skills in preschool children through a mindfulness-based kindness curriculum

    Lisa Flook, Stephen B Goldberg et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2015Citada por: 27Referencias: 3

    Self-regulatory abilities are robust predictors of important outcomes across the life span, yet they are rarely taught explicitly in school. Using a randomized controlled design, the present study investigated the effects of a 12-week mindfulness-based Kindness Curriculum (KC) delivered in a public school setting on executive function, self-regulation, and prosocial behavior in a sample of 68 preschool children. The KC intervention group showed g…
