Examining the complex relations between childhood adversity, mindfulness, attachment, and various personality outcomes: A Bayesian structural equation modeling approach.

“…While previous research suggests that mindfulness is related to both childhood abuse and neglect and relevant personality traits, mindfulness did not act as a mediator in our model. Although this finding is not in line with the literature where mindfulness has been related to abuse and neglect (Sayar & Kose, 2003), insecure attachments (Polizzi et al, 2018; Westbrook & Berenbaum, 2017), and both borderline and psychopathic traits (Douglas et al, 2006; Fonagy, 2000; Karterud & Kongerslev, 2019; Linehan, 2018; Vinet et al, 2018). These findings may have occurred due to the nature of the sample collected which was largely white female undergraduate students.…”

“…Further, the research has shown that lower levels of emotional awareness/mindfulness are often experienced by people with insecure/anxious attachments (Polizzi et al, 2018; Westbrook & Berenbaum, 2017), thus there may be a negative relation between these mediators. In terms of personality, psychopathic and borderline traits have both been found to be associated with lower levels of mindfulness (Douglas et al, 2006; Fonagy, 2000; Karterud & Kongerslev, 2019; Vinet et al, 2018). In the treatment of borderline personality, interventions target lower mindfulness (Linehan, 2018) and many correctional programs (with individuals higher in psychopathic traits) target a lack of self-awareness as an area for intervention (Douglas et al, 2006).…”
