Abstract

This study investigated the effect of mindfulness on reducing negative affect (NA) in relation to the emotion regulation strategies of cognitive reappraisal and distraction. First, we aimed to compare the degree to which cognitive reappraisal, distraction, and mindfulness explained current NA and NA after two months. We expected that mindfulness would explain NA more than cognitive reappraisal and distraction would. Second, we examined whether mindfulness would mediate the relationships of cognitive reappraisal and distraction with NA. Based on self-report assessments collected from Korean workers, we found that both mindfulness and distraction were significantly correlated with current positive affect (PA) and NA and with NA after two months. However, cognitive reappraisal was correlated only with current PA. We also found that mindfulness fully mediated the relationship between distraction and NA after two months. These findings provide theoretical implications for the emotional process of mindfulness and practical implications for mindfulness-based interventions at work.
