“…Convergent findings indicate that mindfulness meditation could ameliorate negative outcomes resulting from deficits in self-regulation and could consequently help patient populations suffering from diseases and behavioural abnormalities. Several clinical trials have explored the effects of mindfulness meditation on disorders such as depression 154 , generalized anxiety 26 , addictions 155 , attention deficit disorders 156 and others 42 , and have begun to establish the efficiency of mindfulness practice for these conditions. Only a few recent studies, however, have investigated the neuroplastic changes underlying these beneficial effects of mindfulness in clinical populations 29,41,42,74,97,142,157 .…”

Research over the past two decades broadly supports the claim that mindfulness meditation - practiced widely for the reduction of stress and promotion of health - exerts beneficial effects on physical and mental health, and cognitive performance. Recent neuroimaging studies have begun to uncover the brain areas and networks that mediate these positive effects. However, the underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear, and it is apparent that more methodologically rigorous studies are required if we are to gain a full understanding of the neuronal and molecular bases of the changes in the brain that accompany mindfulness meditation.

“…The present study adds to the attention bias modification literature by indicating that attention bias modification may also alter the ERN—a neural measure posited to reflect individual differences in sensitivity to threat and risk for anxiety. These results are particularly encouraging given that cognitive-behavioral therapy has not been show to impact the ERN (Hajcak, Franklin, Foa, & Simons, 2008; Schoenberg et al, 2014). However, both the present study and Nelson et al (2015) were conducted in college undergraduates with mild levels of anxiety, and these investigations require replication in clinical and high risk populations.…”

The error-related negativity (ERN) is an electrophysiological response to errors. Individual differences in the ERN have been posited to reflect sensitivity to threat and linked with risk for anxiety disorders. Attention bias modification is a promising computerized intervention that has been shown to decrease threat biases and anxiety symptoms. In the present study, we examined the impact of a single session of attention bias modification, relative to a control task, on the neural correlates of response monitoring, including the ERN, correct response negativity (CRN), and their difference (i.e., the ERN – CRN or ΔERN). The final sample included 60 participants who first completed a flanker task to elicit the ERN and CRN, and were then randomly assigned to attention bias modification (n = 30) or a control task (n = 30). After completing the attention bias modification or control task, participants completed the same flanker task to again elicit the ERN and CRN. Among participants who completed attention bias modification training, the ERN, CRN, and ΔERN decreased from the pre- to post-training assessment. In contrast, in participants who completed the control task, the CRN, ERN, and ΔERN did not differ between the pre- and post-training assessment. The presents study suggests that a single session of attention bias modification reduces neural correlates of response monitoring, including error-related brain activity. These results also support attention bias modification as a potential mechanistic-based intervention for the prevention and treatment of anxiety pathology.

“…We reviewed around 16 studies in recent years on the effects of mindfulness-based cognitive therapies in adults, the majority of which show a clear beneficial effect on ADHD symptoms in adults [13, 22, 23,24,25, 23, 26,27,28, 29,30,31,32, 20, 33,34]. Of 12 studies conducted within the last five years on the effectiveness of mindfulness-based cognitive therapies for ADHD in adults, all showed small-to-significant symptom reductions.…”

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a childhood-onset neurological disorder that often continues into adult age. Stimulants medication are the mainstay of treatment, however, in the recent years, there has been a lot of studies conducted to understand the effectiveness and feasibility of mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy for treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children and adults. In this article, we have reviewed 17 articles to look for the beneficial effects of such therapy in adults. Overall, we found that there is a clear beneficial effect of such therapies, especially when used in adjunct with stimulant medication and may increase overall compliance. For better understanding, we suggest that large, well-designed studies should be conducted with robust strategies, allowing more comparison studies with the better analytical outcome.
