Compassion-based meditation quality practice and its impact on the positive attitudes toward others 2021 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Objectives: The authors report on the initial development and validation of the Compassion Practice Quality Scale (CPQS), a measure to assess the quality of compassion-based meditation (CBM). It is conceptualized and operationalized via two factors measuring mental imagery and somatic perception/response. Methods: The total sample was composed of 205 university students who underwent a CBM and completed pre-test/post-test assessment of compassion and related constructs. Results from a series of preliminary psychometric analyses of the CPQS were examined, including factor analysis, internal consistency, and convergent/discriminant validity. Results: The data supported a 12-item and 10-item (without reference to gestures and self-instructions) CPQS of which imagery and somatic perception emerged as two significant reliable subscales, with Cronbach’s alpha values of.90 and.88 respectively. Practice quality factors assessed by the CPQS correlated in expected ways with fear of compassion, imagery variables, and self-criticism, as well as predicted compassion outcome (i.e., feeling positive attitudes toward others). Conclusions: Our findings contribute to identifying two key components of high-quality meditation in CBM (i.e., mental imagery and somatic perception/response) for use in pedagogical development and further research and to offer a reliable self-report measure to assess them for the first time. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/ISCIII/CB06-03-0052 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/RTI2018-097835-A-I00 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 3.801 2021 PSYCHOLOGY, CLINICAL 50 / 131 = 0.382 2021 Q2 T2 PSYCHIATRY 62 / 143 = 0.434 2021 Q2 T2 1.245 2021 Applied Psychology 2021 Q1 Social Psychology 2021 Q1 Health (social science) 2021 Q1 Developmental and Educational Psychology 2021 Q1 5.7 2021 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Campos D.
