a

There was no evidence to evaluate measurement error for these instruments.

b

Test-retest results were adequate for 3 of 4 subscales.

c

Rating for the global score is ++, ratings for subscales range from +++ for Accept without Judgment to − for Observe.

d

Ratings for subscales Observe and Describe are less often consistently positive than ratings for the other subscales.

e

One of the two subscales has been shown to be responsive.

f

This was evaluated with the whole MMS score only.
