Mindfulness, video games, observing, describing, acting with awareness, and accepting without judgment.

It is observed that some aspects of mindfulness (observing, describing, acting with awareness, and accepting without judgment) are related to gaming (Gackenbach & Bown, 2011). The aim of this research is to investigate the relationship between video game playing and mindfulness. This is a descriptive correlational study including 403 participants who consented to answer the Kentucky Inventory of Mindfulness Skills (KIMS) questionnaire through an online survey. The correlation between video gaming and mindfulness is -0.0398. There is a negligible negative correlation between video gaming and the level of mindfulness. The majority of both video-gamers and non-video gamers have moderate levels of competence in observing, describing, acting with awareness, and accepting without judgment. It is also highly recommended that tech companies in Saudi Arabia be more aggressive in promoting video games that are not only entertaining or relaxing but are also effective instruments in developing skills, behaviors, health, and mindfulness.
