“…The predominance of pathological or less healthy characteristics in non-practitioners found in other studies is corroborated in the present research (Campanella et al, 2014;Fossati et al, 2012;Leung & Singhal, 2004;Menezes & Dell'Aglio, 2009;van den Hurk et al, 2011). In fact, meditation practitioners are expected to exhibit less pathological personality profiles in relation to people who do not practice since this technique provides improvements in stress management, emotional benefits and social behavior, and also development of maturity, and other aspects, which are considered to be preventive of personality disorders (Campanella et al, 2014;Kabat-Zinn, 2003;Tang et al, 2007).…”

“…Mindfulness skills may develop differently in various subgroups of individuals (Liljia, Lundh, Josefsson, & Falkenström, ). Low levels of mindfulness played a significant role in personality psychopathology and were found negatively associated with borderline personality disorder (BPD) features (Fossati, Vigorelli Porro, Maffei, & Borroni, ; Shorey et al ., ). Moreover, higher levels of trait mindfulness were associated with lower levels of residual depressive symptoms, especially among individuals who have experienced five or more episodes of depression (Radford et al ., ).…”
