Mindfulness Test (MAAS)
Mindfulness — Present-Moment Awareness Assessment
How often do you truly pay attention to what is happening right now? The MAAS measures dispositional mindfulness. 15 items, about 5 minutes.
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?
Scoring Guide
The MAAS is scored by calculating the mean of all 15 items. All items are worded to reflect mindlessness/lapses in attention, so no reverse scoring is needed — the response values (1-6) are used as-is. Higher mean scores indicate higher levels of dispositional mindfulness.<br>• Score 1.0-2.5: Low mindfulness<br>• Score 2.6-3.9: Moderate mindfulness<br>• Score 4.0-4.5: Above average mindfulness<br>• Score 4.6-6.0: High mindfulness<br><br>Reference: Brown, K.W. & Ryan, R.M.
