Differences between the meditator and non-meditator groups in mindfulness facets.

Footnote: Mean scores with standard deviations (SD), univariate analyses and Cohen’s d are represented. Group and sex were introduced as factors, and age as a co-variable in a two-way MANCOVA analysis with scores in FFMQ subscales and EQ as a dependent variables. Significant effects were observed for group (p<0.001), age (p<0.001), and sex (p = 0.028). Non-interactive Group × Age effect was observed (p>0.5). No differences were observed regarding mindfulness self-reported scores in FFMQ subscales and EQ between the different types of meditation (all p>0.05). MG =  Meditator group; NMG = Non-meditator group.
