Summary
This study tested whether a brief online mindfulness program could help Indonesian university students reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. Over 400 students were randomly assigned to either the mindfulness program or a psychoeducation control group for 14 days. The goal was to see if mindfulness improves emotional well-being and whether changes in repetitive negative thinking explain those effects.
