Mindfulness is conscious attention to the current moment and internal/external personal experiences. Researches showed that mindfulness has a relationship with other psychological variables. Ego strength can be defined such as self-control, self-regulation or other relative variables like self-depletion too. The present study examines the predicting role of ego strength on the relationship with mindfulness in the University of Tehran and the Medical University of Tehran students. Two hundred and sixty-eight students (231 male, 36 female) participated in the study. All students were asked to complete Ego Strength Scale (ESS) and Mindfulness Awareness Attention Scale (MAAS). Analysis of data involves descriptive and inferential statistics including mean, standard deviation and linear regression coefficient. Results show that ego strength has a significant relationship with mindfulness. Ego strength predicted 11 percent of mindfulness variability. It can conclude that ego strength can predict the role of mindfulness.
