The study was a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The data was collected from March 7 to April 25 of 2014. Participants in the study were 56 elderly women, 30 institutionalized elderly for the experimental group and 26 institutionalized elderly for the control group. The experimental group received the Mindfulness Meditation program for 90 minutes/session/week for 8 weeks. Data were analyzed using x2-test and t-test for subject homogeneity verification, and paired t-test to examine the hypotheses.
