Mindfulness and Quality of Life among Single Mothers in the Hail Region

Abstract

This study sought to determine the relationship between mindfulness and quality of life among single mothers as well as the differences in single mothers' levels of mindfulness and quality of life depending on the variables of the number of children, income level, and economic independence. It also sought to determine the level of mindfulness and quality of life among single mothers in the Hail region. The sample was chosen randomly, and a descriptive, correlational approach was employed to accomplish the study's goals. Two scales were created to assess mothers' mindfulness as well as their quality of life, and their validity and reliability were confirmed using suitable statistical techniques. The findings indicated that among single mothers, both mindfulness and quality of life had increased. Additionally, they showed that there was a positive and statistically significant correlation between quality of life and mindfulness, and that differences in both of these variables' levels could be attributed to the economic independence variable even though there were no differences. The quantity of kids and the degree of poverty are blamed for it. Based on the study's findings, the two researchers suggest that the relevant authorities focus on factors that improve single moms' quality of life and increase their level of mindfulness.
