In an Article by David L. Kirp. “On the California Achievement
Test, twice as many students in Quiet Time schools have become proficient in

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology by Gina M. Biegel, Kirk Warren Brown, Shauna L.
Shapiro, & Christine M. Schubert “There has been very little research testing
the efficacy of mindfulness-based interventions with adolescents; however,
preliminary evidence is suggestive. Bootzin and Stevens (2005) examined the
effects of an integrative mindfulness-based intervention with adolescent
substance abusers ages 13–19 years” (856)
