'Saniotis A, De la Torre GG, Mohammadi K, Henneberg M, Galassi FM, 2025: MINDFULNESS BASED INTERVENTION AS AN ADJUNCT COUNTERMEASURE IN LONG TERM SPACE MISSIONS. Anthropologie (Brno) 63, 1: 0-0'.
 
Abstract
Research indicates that even short duration space flight may cause deficits to psychological health. Crewed members of spaceflights are also vulnerable to various neurobehavioral problems, which may reduce psychological health, work efficiency and group cohesiveness. Mindfulness meditation as a psychological countermeasure for long-term space missions has received increasing attention. Mindfulness techniques have been shown to provide various cognitive and affective benefits in clinical settings, these have yet to be employed as a feasible psychological countermeasure for space crews. Therefore, this paper will propose that the use of mindfulness-based intervention may offer a feasible adjunct countermeasure for several psychological and performance risks for astronauts during long-term space missions.
