abstract="<b>Objective:</b> This pilot study assessed the feasibility and acceptability of <i>The Mindfulness App</i> with college students and the utility of daily text-message reminders for increasing adherence. <b>Participants:</b> Students from a mid-sized Midwestern University (<i>N</i> = 59) during the spring and fall of 2016. <b>Methods:</b> Using a pretest-posttest design, a group of students used <i>The Mindfulness App</i> for 5 weeks. All students were sent text-message reminders to submit daily practice time and completed a series of online measures. <b>Results:</b> Participants consistently used the application as intended, and reported positive attitudes toward the text-message reminders and the quality of the application. <b>Conclusions:</b><i>The Mindfulness App</i> is a feasible, well-accepted tool for delivering mindfulness interventions to college students.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
