Description

Tao Liu, WenJing Zhang, and Rong Fu study mindfulness and distress among Chinese undergraduates in a 2026 survey. Mindfulness training often helps well-being, yet its workings under strong study pressure and family expectations were unclear. Culture is treated here as part of the mechanism, not background.

Stratified sampling drew 432 students from four universities. Scales measured mindfulness, distress, resilience, emotion control, support, pressure, and family expectations. Mindfulness linked to lower distress overall in the reported models. That link weakened under high study pressure and strengthened under high family expectations. Resilience and rethinking worries together carried much of the effect, with differences by gender and subject area.
