Description

Age brings calmer feelings in many lands, and calm attention may be the bridge. Peace Amanambu, JohnBosco Chukwuorji, and Eric Allard tested that chain in 2023 on two hundred forty-two Nigerian adults aged eighteen to seventy-five. Past work had built the chain on Western folk alone. Each person scored their good and bad moods, their bounce-back strength, and how mindfully they live.

Older folk did report more mindfulness. For bad moods, the age link ran through mindfulness: once attention was counted, age alone no longer spoke. For good moods the chain stayed thin, with only the age-to-mindfulness step firm. Bounce-back strength changed neither tale. The team suggest attention training as a lever for the well-being of older folk, in this setting new to the claim.
