Abstrakt: The objective is to determine the effectiveness of peer teaching methods in mindfulness training to enhance student mindfulness. This study is quasiexperimental with a pre-test-post-test control group design followed by 92 students. They were divided into peer tutor, treatment, and control groups using a cluster sampling technique. The respondents' mindfulness level was measured using an online Mindfulness Awareness Scale (MAAS) questionnaire at three different measurement times. The data were analyzed using the Repeated Measure ANOVA test. The results indicated that the peer teaching method is effective and influential in increasing mindfulness in the peer tutor group (p-value <.001, f = 5.0). The effect size is moderate (χ²p = 0.10). The results showed that only the peer tutor group had significant results between observations one and 3 (p-value = 0.03). This paper concludes that peer teaching training can increase mindfulness in peer tutor groups. However, there was no significant difference between the peer and control groups. Suggestions for further research are to involve a larger sample, use a variety of training methods, longer duration of training, and pay attention to motivational factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
