Mindfulness Meditation
Mindfulness meditation, a practice aimed at cultivating present-moment awareness, is increasingly being investigated for its potential mental health benefits. Current research focuses on leveraging technology, such as large language models and social robots, to enhance engagement and personalize mindfulness interventions, exploring different modalities like voice assistants and visual storytelling. Studies utilize various methods, including randomized controlled trials and dynamic Bayesian networks, to analyze user engagement, perceived quality of experience, and the impact on well-being. These technological advancements aim to improve accessibility and effectiveness of mindfulness practices, potentially impacting both clinical and self-directed applications.
