Abstract :

The current study tries to explore the relationship between mindfulness and demographic variable like gender in Indian context. The sample (n=172) was collected via random sampling technique from B-schools in India. The authors applied descriptive statistical techniques and ANOVA to understand the relationship between the concerned variables. The results depicted that male and female students had similar average mindfulness dispositions, but female students had a more comprehensive range of mindfulness dispositions as compared to male students.
