Abstract
The factor structure, internal consistency, construct validity, and predictive validity of the Puerto Rican version of the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ- PR) were studied in a sample of meditators (N = 157) and nonmeditators (N = 157). A five-factor structure was demonstrated in both samples, and the FFMQ and its subscales were shown to have good internal consistencies. Meditators scored higher on all facets of the FFMQ than the participants in the nonmeditating sample. Overall, the Puerto Rican FFMQ demonstrated favorable psychometric properties.
