About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine how a mindfulness-based intervention (MIED) affects the moment-to-moment, lagged relationships between mechanism variables at the levels of feelings, thoughts, and behaviors and outcomes (anxiety and depression) in individuals experiencing anxiety and depressive distress, using high-frequency ecological momentary assessment. The main questions it aims to answer are:
At the within-person level, do these mechanism variables significantly predict next-moment anxiety and depressive symptoms at the within-day micro-scale?
How does the temporal dynamic between mechanism and outcomes over the course of MIED?

Primary outcomes
changes of depression
Daily Depression Severity and Impairment Scale,5 items, scores range from 0 to 20, with higher scores indicating higher levels of depression.
changes of anxiety
Daily Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale,5 items, scores range from 0 to 20, with higher scores indicating higher levels of anxiety.
changes of mindfulness
The Daily Mindfulness Response Scale measures the frequency with which one returns to a nonjudgmental and unconditionally receptive present moment awareness during the day. Each item is rated on a scale ranging from 1 (rarely) to 10 (often). scores range from 4 to 40, with higher scores indicating higher levels of mindful responding
changes of distress tolerance
3 items were chosen to form the Daily Distress Tolerance Scale (DDTS). The DDTS consists of four items. Each item is rated on a scale ranging from 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). Scores range from 3 to 15, with higher scores indicating greater distress tolerance.
