The moderating and mediating roles of self acceptance and tolerance to others in the relationship between mindfulness and subjective well being
This study explored the moderating and mediating influences of self acceptance and tolerance to others in the relationship between mindfulness and subjective well being. In total, 301 (130 males) university students completed the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire, Index of Well being, Self acceptance Questionnaire, and Tolerance Scale. The results showed that the positive link between mindfulness and subjective well being was significantly mediated by self acceptance only. Tolerance played a moderating role. The implications of the results for relevant research and mindfulness training were discussed.
