Conceptual and Psychometric Issues in Measuring Mindfulness

If you are to select the most fitting assessment of a particular client or problem, you need to understand the distinctions between different measures and the concepts underlying them. For example, the underlying definition of mindfulness may differ from one test to the next, or tests may measure different mindfulness qualities. You’ll also need to be aware of potential pitfalls, such as the limits of self-reporting and issues with how the reliability and validity of various tests were established. Another concern with using mindfulness measures is being able to interpret the score. Does a client’s score indicate low, average, or high levels of mindfulness? Some tests can give you good information regarding individual scores, while others can’t.
