How Mindful Are You, Really?

The Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) measures a core aspect of mindfulness: your ability to sustain attention on the present moment. Kirk Warren Brown and Richard M. Ryan published it in 2003. Fifteen items, a 6-point scale, and it takes about 5 minutes. The idea is simple — how often are you actually paying attention to what is happening right now?
