Over time mindfulness research and practice has taken on diverse basic assumptions and theoretical traditions, and the pseudo-scientific use of the term has become more prevalent. Given the ubiquitousness of both personal and professional applications of mindfulness, the need for a thorough understanding of its theoretical cornerstones is necessary. In this review, we use bibliometric techniques to uncover the field's intellectual roots (Study 1), and document bibliographic coupling analysis to illuminate current research avenues across management disciplines (Study 2). Our bibliometric process covers 48 references for co-citation and 238 articles for bibliographic coupling analyses, respectively, published between 2012 and 2020. Co-citation analysis reveals a shift of focus from the past two historical mindfulness schools of thought (Eastern and Western) to a novel intellectual structure of the mindfulness field articulated around three distinct yet overlapping research streams. We propose integrative ways to advance mindfulness research by unpacking mindfulness processes, dimensions and development, arguing that the integration of these three main foci is necessary to advance understanding of mindfulness. Bibliometric coupling analysis identifies eight management-related mindfulness research themes. We discuss the extent to which these eight themes have comparably explored the three foci (mindfulness processes, dimensions and development) highlighted in our model. Lastly, we use our theory-driven review to draw on under-developed areas of research, identifying profitable directions for future research on mindfulness in the workplace and beyond.

正念：解开它的三种色调并阐明理解结构的综合方法

随着时间的推移，正念研究和实践采用了不同的基本假设和理论传统，该术语的伪科学使用变得更加普遍。鉴于正念的个人和专业应用无处不在，有必要彻底了解其理论基石。在这篇综述中，我们使用文献计量技术来揭示该领域的知识根源（研究 1），并记录文献耦合分析以阐明当前跨管理学科的研究途径（研究 2）。我们的文献计量流程分别涵盖了 2012 年至 2020 年间发表的 48 篇共引参考文献和 238 篇文献耦合分析文章。共引分析揭示了从过去两个历史正念学派（东方和西方）的焦点转移到围绕三个不同但重叠的研究流阐明的正念领域的新知识结构。我们提出了通过分解正念过程、维度和发展来推进正念研究的综合方法，认为这三个主要焦点的整合对于促进对正念的理解是必要的。文献计量耦合分析确定了八个与管理相关的正念研究主题。我们讨论了这八个主题在多大程度上探索了我们模型中强调的三个焦点（正念过程、维度和发展）。最后，我们使用我们的理论驱动审查来借鉴不发达的研究领域，
