✦ Synopsis
The major goal of this study was to explore the relationship among psychological mindedness (PM) and several facets of awareness, including a general sense of mindfulness (Mindful Attention Awareness Scale; , as well as more specific awareness of self (selfconsciousness scale; and others (Interpersonal Reactivity Index;. Participants were 103 undergraduate students at an urban liberal arts college. Results indicated that PM (PM Scale; Conte, Plutchik, Jung, Picard, Karasu, & Lotterman, 1990) is related to mindfulness (r ϭ .41, p Ͻ .01), private self-consciousness (r ϭ .27, p Ͻ .05), as well as cognitive (r ϭ .30, p Ͻ .01) and affective (r ϭ .35, p Ͻ .01) indices of empathy. Self-consciousness and empathy explained a significant amount of variance in PM in a simultaneous-entry multiple regression. These findings support theoretical claims that PM involves awareness of self and others.
