So, how would you control for that? Most folks don't know how to do mindfulness meditation without a bit of guidance, so there's going to need to be some coaching. Would simply using the same words to another group without the meditation stage of the process be an appropriate control? Or, is it necessary to only use people who already know what mindfulness meditation is? (And if that, how would you control for the other differences longterm mindfulness meditation might have on the study?) Humans are complicated. I've been reading a lot of this kind of research lately, and I don't think I'm even beginning to grasp how to do rigorous science with the human psyche.
