WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Mindfulness and Attention Rating Scale Test - Symptoms and Signs
This self-report measure assesses dispositional mindfulness with an emphasis on attentive awareness of present-moment experience in everyday life. The Mindfulness and Attention Rating Scale asks respondents to rate how frequently they notice lapses in attention or being preoccupied with thoughts rather than attending to current activity.
It consists of 15 items and typically takes about 3 minutes to complete. Developed by K. W. Brown, the Mindfulness and Attention Rating Scale may be used in clinical, counseling, and research settings to characterize baseline mindfulness-related attention and to support monitoring of change over time when paired with other clinical data.
