  Introducción: Mindfulness ha ganado interés dentro de la comunidad científica dada su asociación con resultados positivos sobre indicadores de salud física y psicológica. Sin embargo, el debate sigue abierto sobre cuáles son los procesos que podrían mediar estas relaciones. Objetivo: Explorar en una muestra de 415 jóvenes, las relaciones entre mindfulness disposicional, fusión cognitiva, control del esfuerzo y pensamiento negativo repetitivo (PNR). El PNR se propone como potencial variable mediadora debido a que se es común en múltiples trastornos psicológicos. Método: Los análisis de mediación realizados a través de Bootstrapping con 5000 replicaciones, indicaron que el efecto que genera el mindfulness disposicional sobre la fusión cognitiva puede estar mediado parcialmente por el PNR en personas jóvenes con un tamaño del efecto medio. Conclusiones: Mindfulness disposicional se relaciona de manera negativa con las medidas de PNR, control del esfuerzo y fusión cognitiva. Por tanto, el PNR podría desempeñar un papel importante como proceso subyacente entre mindfulness y diferentes aspectos psicológicos.

  Introduction: The scientific community is taking an increasing interest in mindfulness due to its positive association with physical and psychological health indicators. However, there is still ongoing debate as to whether there could be other explanations for these effects. Aim: This study explores the relationships between dispositional mindfulness, cognitive fusion, effortful control and repetitive negative thinking (RNT). RNT was chosen as a potential mediating variable due to its presence in multiple psychological disorders. Method: A mediation analysis was performed using the bootstrap method with 5000 replications on data collected from a non-clinical sample of 415 young adults who completed a battery of online questionnaires. Results: Dispositional mindfulness is negatively associated with measures of RNT, effortful control and cognitive fusion. The analyses indicate that the effect that dispositional mindfulness has on cognitive fusion in young people can be partially mediated with medium effect size by RNT. Conclusion: RNT may play a central role as an underlying process in the link between mindfulness and different psychological aspects.
