Elaine Gavelas, writing for The Huffington Post, reported on a 2016 study published in SAGE Open found group practice of Transcendental Meditation was linked to decreased homicides and violent crime in the U.S. during the 2007-2010 study period. Scientists theoretically predicted that the square root of 1% of the U.S. population (about 1,725 people) meditating together would create a nationwide positive effect.

Researchers found there was an 18.5% drop in violent crime nationwide at the end of the study. Statistical and independent analyses showed the rising trend of U.S. homicides during 2001-2006 was reversed during the 2007-2010 study period. Other variables were ruled out such as the economy, demographics, and law enforcement.
