the corporate fad of meditation/mindfulness lacks scientific support because: (a) causal claims are no longer supported when considering only studies with passive controls. 6 (b) the effects of meditation are practically zero if experiments using an external/third-party person to conduct the intervention are removed. (c) when the p-value was just slightly below a desired cutoff value (typically .05) in favor of meditation, authors of experiments generally reported the result as statistically non-significant. (d) all of the above. (e) none of the above.
