Increased Self-Actualization
through the Transcendental Meditation program
| Figure 3. Statistical meta-analysis of all available studies
(42 independent outcomes) indicated that the effect of the Transcendental
Meditation program on increasing self-actualization is markedly
greater than that of other forms of meditation and relaxation. This
analysis statistically controlled for the length of treatment and
quality of research design. Almost all studies in this meta-analysis
measured self-actualization through the widely used Personal Orientation
Inventory (POI). Transcendental Meditation subjects improved significantly
on all 12 POI subscales compared to controls over an average three-month
period.
