SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Agency for Healthcare Research and
Quality has commissioned the
Evidence-based Practice Centers (EPC)
Program to complete a review of the
evidence for Mindfulness-Based
Interventions for Mental Health and
Wellbeing in Children and Adolescents:
A Systematic Review. AHRQ is
conducting this review pursuant to
section 902 of the Public Health Service
Act, 42 U.S.C. 299a.
The EPC Program is dedicated to
identifying as many studies as possible
that are relevant to the questions for
each of its reviews. In order to do so, we
are supplementing the usual manual
and electronic database searches of the
literature by requesting information
from the public (e.g., details of studies
conducted). We are looking for studies
that report on Mindfulness-Based
Interventions for Mental Health and
Wellbeing in Children and Adolescents:
A Systematic Review. The entire
research protocol is available online at:
https://effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/
products/ped-mindfulness/protocol
This is to notify the public that the
EPC Program would find the following
information on Mindfulness-Based
Interventions for Mental Health and
Wellbeing in Children and Adolescents:
A Systematic Review helpful:
D A list of completed studies that
your organization has sponsored for this
topic. In the list, please indicate
whether results are available on

that the public provide answers to these
questions.
Key Questions (KQ)
KQ 1. What are the benefits and harms
of mindfulness-based interventions
in the general child and adolescent
populations?
KQ 2. What are the benefits and harms
of mindfulness-based interventions
in children and adolescents
diagnosed with anxiety and/or
depression?
KQ 3. What are the benefits and harms
of mindfulness-based interventions
in children and adolescents with a
chronic condition who are at risk
for elevated symptoms of anxiety
and/or depression?

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
Population ..................................
KQ 1. Children and adolescents aged 3 to 18 years without
known anxiety and/or depression.
KQ 2. Children and adolescents aged 3 to 18 years with a diagnosis of depression and/or anxiety.
KQ 3. Children and adolescents aged 3 to 18 years with a
chronic condition who are at risk for elevated symptoms of or
being diagnosed with anxiety and/or depression.
Definition of chronic physical conditions: Medical physical conditions (i.e., conditions that primarily affect the body’s systems
and functions) that persist for one year or longer and require
ongoing medical attention, limit activities of daily living, or
both.
Interventions ..............................
KQ 1–3 ..........................................................................................
In addition to the minimum requirements identified above:
• Mindfulness-based intervention, provided alone or in addition
to other therapies.
• Mindfulness is the primary component for multicomponent
interventions (as a part of behavioral and similar non-pharmacological strategies), meaning that the intervention must be
centered around mindfulness (e.g., the majority of the sessions or focus are mindfulness-based).
• A mindfulness instructor (e.g., therapist, teacher) must have
some training in providing mindfulness. We do not specify the
required minimum training.
• Clear specification of repeated practice (e.g., more than one
session with an instructor, or repeated self-directed exercises
after at least one initial session with an instructor).
Examples of other therapies include structured mindfulness programs and mindfulness-based therapies such as:
• Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction ........................................
• Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy ......................................
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy .....................................
Components of programs, if they are intentionally used to promote mindfulness principles and meet other criteria, may include:
• Relaxation techniques ...............................................................
• Meditation ..................................................................................
• Mindful breathing .......................................................................
• Guided imagery .........................................................................
• Visualization ...............................................................................
KQ 1. Usual care, enhanced usual care, waitlist control, sham,
attention control, or no active intervention.

PHQ–A, PI–ED), diagnosis (KQs 2 and 3 only), and remission
and response (KQs 1 and 3).
• Anxiety (e.g., SCARED, MASC, SCAS, CAIS, GAD–7, PHQ–

on DSM–5], severe attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
[e.g., based on DSM–5 definition], severe learning disorders
[e.g., more than 2 standard deviations below the mean in one
or more areas of cognitive processing related to the specific
learning disorder]).
• With major behavioral or emotional dysregulation (e.g., conduct disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, disruptive mood
dysregulation disorder).a
• With substance use disorder.
We will exclude studies with MBIs designed and/or administered
only to parents/caregivers, as well as interventions administered by parents/caregivers.
We will exclude studies designed to treat test or sports performance anxiety, anxiety associated with medical/dental procedures and with interventions for specific high-risk exposures
such as for post-sexual assault or another traumatic event.
Pharmacologic interventions or traditional psychotherapies alone
(e.g., cognitive-behavioral therapy, play therapy, dialectical
behavior therapy, parent-child interaction therapy) and integrative therapies alone including acupuncture/acupressure,
expressive therapies, exercise, yoga, Tai Chi, biofeedback,
