Similarly, MBT was effective for reducing depressive symptoms in individuals with a diagnosis of depression (n = 4 studies; Hedges’ g = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.71-1.18, p < .01), followed by individuals with an anxiety disorder (n = 6 studies; Hedges’ g = 0.75, 95% CI: 0.58-0.92, p < .01), pain (n = 6 studies; Hedges’ g = 0.51, 95% CI: 0.39-0.63, p < .01), and cancer (n = 7 studies; Hedges’ g = 0.45, 95% CI: .34-0.56, p < .01).
