Mindfulness techniques require focused attention on the present moment and awareness of one's thoughts and feelings as they occur. Based on mindfulness theory, it is expected that dispositional mindfulness will be positively associated with cognitive flexibility, sustained attention, concentration, and capacity for attention switching. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between self-reported mindfulness and performances on standardized measures of attention and determine an underlying factorial structure of mindfulness. Seventy participants completed the following standardized measures: Kentucky Inventory of Mindfulness Skills (KIMS); Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS); and Mindfulness/Mindlessness Scale (MMS); and the following attention measures: FAS and Animals Test of Orthographic Verbal Fluency; Letter-Number Sequencing (LNS); and Trail Making Test. Animals Verbal Fluency was negatively correlated with KIMS Act with Awareness (r = -.28, p = .03) and Acceptance subscales (r = -.29, p = 0.03) even when controlling for education, gender, and age. Suppression effects were seen between Trails B and KIMS Act with Awareness when controlling for gender (r = -.27, p = .04) and age ( r = -.31, p = .02) respectively. Another suppression effect was found for FAS and KIMS. Describe when estimated verbal intelligence was controlled (r = .33, p = .01). As such, objective attention was inconsistently related to self-reported mindfulness. Two-factor solutions were found for all questionnaires albeit with a high degree of overlap between factors and some subscale item. A distinct 'attention' factor did not emerge.
