Research on nonattachment, a Buddhist psychological construct closely related to mindfulness, has burgeoned since the development of the Nonattachment Scale. The aim of the current meta-analysis was to investigate the mediating role of nonattachment in the relationship between mindfulness and well-being and psychological distress using a meta-analytic structural equation modeling approach. The respective associations of nonattachment and mindfulness with well-being and psychological distress, after controlling for each other, were also examined. Forty-one independent cross-sectional data sets with 24,704 individuals were coded. Results showed that nonattachment partially mediated the associations between mindfulness and well-being and psychological distress. Nonattachment and mindfulness were both significantly positively associated with well-being and negatively associated with psychological distress after controlling for each other. Given the present findings were based on cross-sectional data, more studies with rigorous research design, such as longitudinal, experimental, and intervention studies, should be conducted to further investigate the mediating effect of nonattachment between mindfulness with well-being and distress outcomes and establish causal relations between them. Future research directions regarding nonattachment and its application in mindfulness-based interventions were discussed.
非 Attachment 的研究，作为与正念密切相关的佛教心理结构，自非 Attachment 量表的发展以来已经蓬勃发展。本元分析的目的是使用元分析结构方程建模方法，调查非 Attachment 在正念与幸福感和心理困扰之间的关系中的中介作用。还检验了非 Attachment 和正念在控制彼此之后与幸福感和心理困扰的相关性。对 41 个独立的横断面数据集（共 24704 人）进行了编码。结果表明，非 Attachment 部分中介了正念与幸福感和心理困扰之间的关系。在控制彼此之后，非 Attachment 和正念都与幸福感显著正相关，与心理困扰显著负相关。由于本研究结果基于横断面数据，因此应开展更多具有严谨研究设计的研究，如纵向、实验和干预研究，以进一步调查非 Attachment 在正念与幸福感和困扰结果之间的中介作用，并确定它们之间的因果关系。讨论了关于非 Attachment 及其在正念干预中的应用的未来研究方向。
