  Valosek, Laurent; Nidich, Sanford; Wendt, Staci; Grant, Jamie; Nidich, Randi (2019). Effect of meditation on social-emotional learning in middle school students. Education, 139(3), 111–119.

  Four-month nonrandomized comparison of 101 sixth graders in two schools reported greater teacher-rated social-emotional competency improvements with TM/Quiet Time. School differences and short follow-up limit causal conclusions.

  • Social Behavior: Teacher-rated social-emotional competencies improved more in TM/Quiet Time students than controls, including the high-risk subgroup.
  • Psychological Health: The high-risk subgroup emotional-symptom result did not reach the conventional .05 significance threshold.
