Rezumat	The Mindfulness Attention Focus Scale (MAFS) is a brief self-report measure designed to assess the degree to which individuals maintain focused, intentional attention on present-moment experience versus experiencing automatic, mind-wandering attention. The MAFS addresses the attentional component of mindfulness from a neuroscientific perspective, grounded in research demonstrating that meditation produces measurable changes in attention networks and prefrontal cortex activation. The instrument emerged from contemplative neuroscience research investigating the neural mechanisms underlying mindfulness practice and the development of stable attentional focus.	The Cognitive and Affective Mindfulness Scale (CAMS) is a 12-item trait mindfulness measure designed to assess the degree to which individuals are present, aware, and non-judging toward their internal (cognitive and emotional) and external experiences. Developed by Feldman, Hayes, and colleagues at Rutgers University and published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology in 2007, the CAMS emphasizes the emotional and cognitive regulation aspects of mindfulness, particularly the capacity to observe thoughts and feelings without judgment. The CAMS-Revised (CAMS-R, 2006) is the refined version, offering strong brevity and psychometric properties that make it especially useful in clinical settings where time and assessment burden must be minimized.
