Description | There has been research regarding both the topic of mindfulness meditation and its effects generally, topic of stereotype threat which can impact many different groups of people, as well as the topic of test anxiety. As a broad subject, stereotype threat takes place when a person within a certain demographic of some kind is faced with a scenario in which a stereotype that may be placed on someone within that said demographic is inflicted upon them causing them to fall into that and submit to this preconceived idea. The focus of the study surrounded how these things intertwined, primarily on how test anxiety caused by stereotype threat is affected by a brief session of mindfulness meditation. The study consisted of four conditions where different variations of stereotype threat or mindfulness was implemented. The study unfortunately did not find any significant different between responses from the participants from each group. There are a variety of reasons for why this could have taken place such as not using the best materials or scales, lack of size in group, and more. | |
