“…However, it is not within the scope of this paper to explain the theoretical framework for this model nor the casual and/or correlational links it posits, but such theory and supporting research have been presented in more detail elsewhere. 44 45 Of relevance to this study is the research program conducted by these authors, beginning in 1993 with the advent of MVU where the practice of Transcendental Meditation was incorporated into the curriculum, which investigated a range of outcomes, including those associated with increased non-verbal intelligence, 46 decreased PSTD symptoms and improved health characteristics of Cambodian undergraduates, 47 factors of relevance to higher education in Cambodia during the early 1990s, 48 and social, socio-political, and economic impacts. 6 49 50 This research program has even been extended to analyses of Cambodia's history of higher education and teacher education and to the role MVU played in revitalising them.…”

“…Studies on the effects of TM in college students on mindfulness (Aldahadha, 2013;Tanner et al, 2009), stress, anxiety (Dillbeck, 1977), and depression (Burns et al, 2011) show significant positive results. One longitudinal study examined the effect of practicing TM on nonverbal intelligence scores (Fergusson, Bonshek, & Masson, 1995) in Cambodian undergraduate students. This study revealed a significant increase in nonverbal intelligence scores over a 3-month period; however, students also engaged in two additional Vedic practices in addition to the practice of TM (Fergusson et al, 1995).…”

This study revealed a significant increase in nonverbal intelligence scores over a 3-month period; however, students also engaged in two additional Vedic practices in addition to the practice of TM (Fergusson et al, 1995). Two longitudinal studies were conducted; one investigated ego development in college alumni over a 10-year span (Chandler, Alexander, & Heaton, 2005), while another measured cognitive ability and cognitive style over a 3-and 5-year period.…”
