  • Chapter

Higher Education and Job Employability

Part of the book series: Knowledge Studies in Higher Education ((KSHE,volume 10))

Abstract

There has been an increasing research on mindfulness in reducing psychological distress and promoting resilience and well-being. Mindfulness studies have primarily been conducted in the clinical and scientific settings, and research with university students is still in its infancy. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a preliminary review of empirical studies on trait mindfulness, and its associations with the Big Five personality traits and trait affect at the university level, which may contribute to better resilience in future workplace. Our review of 20 empirical papers suggests that trait mindfulness is positively related to certain personality traits – agreeableness and conscientiousness and negatively related to neuroticism; while its relationships with openness to experience and extraversion are non-conclusive. Additionally, trait mindfulness is also related to positive affect and resilience, and negatively related to negative affect. This chapter aims to provide insights on the role of trait mindfulness in promoting resilience in higher education and the future workplace.
