The age range of the participants was from 18 years to 25 years with mean age of 20.9 (±SD = 2.0). The Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire-Short Form (FFMQ-SF; Baer, 2003), Connor Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC; Connor & Davidson, 2003) and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS; Cohen, 1994) were used. Preacher and Hayes (2008) bootstrapping approach was used for statistical analysis of data along with descriptive statistics.
