Cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the Persian version of mindfulness during worship scale (MWS) among medical students
The Persian MWS is a valid and reliable tool for assessing mindfulness during worship in a Persian-speaking Muslim population. Its strong psychometric properties support its use in research settings to explore the role of mindful prayer in health psychology and spiritual well-being. Future studies may refine the scale further to enhance its applicability.
