The Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ) is a psychological measurement that explores mindfulness.
FFMQ is based on five independently developed mindfulness questionnaires that are bound together in a factor analytic study. The questionnaire consists of 39 items. The five facets are: observing, describing, acting with awareness, non-judging of inner experience, and non-reactivity to inner experience.
The FFMQ was created by Ruth A. Baer and her colleagues.[1] The article has been cited by over 6000 PubMed Central articles. The FFMQ has been translated into and validated for many languages, including Swedish[2] and French.[3]
Recently, scholars have also started to rely upon the FFMQ to develop computational models of mindfulness wherein mindfulness is viewed as a set of interrelated skills constitutive of mindfulness.[4]
Criticism
[edit]One criticism of the FFMQ is that negative and positive question wording introduces variance unrelated to the constructs being measured, a so-called "method effect".[5]
