Abstract

 Poster presentation given at the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference: Anaheim, CA.
   Program 
 
 Employee mindfulness intervention research is taking off, but the construct of mindfulness remains muddled by misuse of dispositional and skill-based measures. Comparing the fit of dominance and ideal-point IRT models, it is argued the Kentucky Inventory of Mindfulness Skills predominantly reflects ability-based mindfulness as intended. Implications for mindfulness interventions are discussed.
