Relationship between Mindful Attention Awareness and Cognitive Flexibility among Pre-Service Teachers: A Regression Analysis

Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this study is to explore the predictive ability of mindful attention awareness towards cognitive flexibility among pre-service teachers. A descriptive survey approach was employed. The purposive sample method is employed to collect data from 100 pre-service teachers pursuing a Bachelor of Education from the public university of Kurukshetra. The Cognitive Flexibility Inventory by Denis and Vander (2010) and the Mindful Attention Awareness scale by Brown and Ryan were used for data collection. Statistical analysis indicated (i) mindful attention awareness is significantly and positively correlated with cognitive flexibility (ii) mindful attention awareness explains 30.6% of the cognitive flexibility among pre-service teachers. Education implications are further discussed.
