| Research Abstract |
Generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by persistent worrying. This study examined following questions : (1) Does emotional avoidance increase predictive power on worrying? (2) Does mindfulness meditation ameliorate worrying by reducing emotional avoidance, with its focus on bodily awareness? Results include: (1) incremental validity of emotional avoidance over existing predictors and (2) efficacy of mindfulness on reducing worry, but without superiority over attention training, which does not include bodily awareness.
