To help advance understanding of these processes we aimed to develop an implicit, behavioral measure of ESRP and ESLP of fear, to experimentally validate this measure, and to test the relations between ESRP and ESLP of fear, mindfulness, and key psycho-behavioral processes underlying (mal)adaptation. We theorize that mindfulness contributes to mental health by engendering Experiential Selfless Processing (ESLP) – processing present moment subjective experience without self-referentiality. We propose that Experiential Self-Referential Processing (ESRP) – the cognitive association of present moment subjective experience (e.g., sensations, emotions, thoughts) with the self – underlies various forms of maladaptation.
