Area of Science:

Psychology
Cognitive Science

Background:

Research on mindfulness and time perception has grown significantly in the past decade.
Understanding this relationship is crucial for both theoretical and practical applications.

Purpose of the Study:

To systematically review and integrate existing evidence on the relationship between mindfulness and time perception.
To develop a conceptual framework that accounts for the multifaceted nature of both constructs.

Main Methods:

A systematic integrative review of 47 original research articles published in English.
Literature search across PsycINFO, Medline, EBSCO, and Web of Science databases, last updated May 4, 2022.
Risk of bias assessment and integrative narrative synthesis.

Main Results:

The reviewed data indicate complex and multifaceted associations between mindfulness and various aspects of time perception.
Findings highlight the influence of different reference frames, measures, and methods in time perception research.
A conceptual framework integrating diverse findings with existing time perception models and mindfulness theories was developed.

Conclusions:

The relationship between mindfulness and time perception is intricate, requiring consideration of numerous factors.
Future research should address data scarcity in certain areas and increase the use of randomized controlled designs.
This review provides a coherent overview and conceptual integration for this burgeoning research area.
