The study utilized a quasi-experimental nonrandomized control group pretest-posttest design. Method : Volunteer participants in this study were recruited for experimental and control groups separately from the same substance abuse program. The experimental group completed the Drinking-Related Internal-External Locus of Control Scale (DRIE) and the White Bear Suppression Inventory (WBSI), a Thought Suppression Scale, as pretests, and then received four weeks of Mindfulness meditation intervention. After four weeks the participants again completed the DRIE and the WBSI questionnaires as posttests. Once the intervention was completed with the experimental group, the control group was recruited, and also completed the Drinking-Related Internal-External Locus of Control Scale and the White Bear Suppression Inventory questionnaires for the pretest, but did not receive the Mindfulness meditation intervention. At the end of four weeks the control group completed the DRIE and the WBSI questionnaires as a posttest. The scores for experimental and control groups were compared, and a statistical analysis was conducted to assess differences between the two groups. Major Findings : After analyzing the data, statistically significant improvement was found in increased internal locus of control and decreased thought suppression in relation to substance use in participants who participated in Mindfulness meditation intervention as compared to participants who did not. The results support previous research findings that Mindfulness meditation may be a useful adjunctive treatment for substance use disorder." ], "none": [ "Vipassana (Buddhism)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "RC564.G36 2008" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2008" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "RC564.G36 2008_GandhiLekha" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001462/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Gandhi, Lekha" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (Ph.D.)--Barry University, 2008.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 90-106)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "xiii, 116 leaves ills., charts ; 28 cm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Lekha Gandhi.
