Abstract

The present essay provides the existing world records and data concerning the ‘mindfulness’ between 2008 and 2012, extracted by means of bibliometric analysis from the data bases ISI Web of Knowledge (1215 articles found). Not only have been productivity and temporal range analyzed, but also scientific production rates by countries, languages, authors, periodicals, universities and supporting organisms, identifying the highest productivity rates. Knowledge areas and categories have been considered, as well as the citations received. Results show how a steady increase of scientific productivity and number of citations received within five years, and the coverage of large topics are the most significant features. In addition, certain supporting organisms, periodicals, universities and the US, appear to be the referents when publishing articles related to the ‘mindfulness’.
