Filter by:The investigator will evaluate the efficacy of M3©, an intervention for patients with JIA and their caregivers. Children with Juvenile arthritis and their parents will attend an 8 week online program called Making Mindfulness Matter (M3). This is a facilitator-led program that integrates knowledge and skills related to mindfulness, social-emotional learning, neuroscience, and positive psychology to promote coping and resiliency for children and families in context of the challenges of pediatric chronic disease. The child program is designed for children 4-12 years of age, with each lesson including a variety of concrete ways to teach children skills based on their age/developmental level.
This proposal responds to NIMH Objective 4.2.c to develop "decision-support tools and technologies that increase the effectiveness and continuous improvement of mental health interventions" by leveraging the Family First Prevention Services Act (FFPSA) policy opportunity. First, a web-based platform to host (a) a decision-support tool and (b) automated facilitation for group decisions with the tool will be developed with state partners' feedback. Next, decision makers leading their states' FFPSA quality improvement efforts will be engaged to pilot a decision-support intervention comprised of the tool and live or automated facilitation, and to evaluate the implementation quality of evidence-based programs adopted with the decision-support intervention.
The goal of this clinical trial is to pilot test a psychosocial-behavioral mobile health (mHealth) human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevention intervention in people who use drugs presenting to the emergency department (ED). The main question the study aims to answer is: is the intervention acceptable and appropriate? Participants will use the mHealth app while waiting in the ED and also at home for 90 days. Participants will be asked to complete surveys at baseline, before leaving the ED, and at 30-, 60-, and 90-day follow up visits.
An app based on positive psychology and mindfulness to support the mental well-being of parents of children with a Neurodevelopmental Disorder (NDD) was developed and will be evaluated on effectiveness.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test psilocybin in combination with mindfulness training in healthy adults. The main question it aims to answer is "Does mindfulness training enhance the effects of psychedelic therapy (psilocybin) on mental health?" Interested individuals will complete an initial eligibility session and eligible participants will then be randomized into one of two groups: one dose of psilocybin (administered under the supervision of study therapists) combined with 8 weeks of weekly mindfulness training classes (Arm 1) or psilocybin alone (Arm 2). Both groups will complete baseline and post-treatment assessment sessions where they will complete questionnaires and have an EEG (a measure of electrical activity in the brain). Both groups will also complete 2 follow-up surveys (at 8 weeks and 1 year after the post-treatment assessment) either online through REDCap or by phone or video call with a research assistant.
People sometimes wait a long time for psychological therapy and could have this sooner if they had only one session. This is because they may only require one session to meet their needs if this is provided quickly (Cannistrà et al., 2020) and may therefore require less therapy overall, and if they can access this, then services can run more efficiently, and overall capacity of services to offer therapy can increase. Some therapies are hard to deliver in one session. But the method of levels (MOL) was conceived to be highly flexible with respect to session length and number of sessions, and this makes it easier to use in one-off sessions. It is designed to help people focus on problems they describe as being most relevant to them and to find their own solutions. We want to know if we can give one session of MOL to people seeking help from their GP. We want to see if they find it helpful. So we need to find out if they want and attend the session and if they tell us about it. This will help us decide whether to run a larger study exploring whether one session of MOL can help meet the goals of people seeking GP support. This could tell us whether MOL could help reduce waiting times. We will ask people using GP surgeries if they want to participate. They will be offered one session of MOL with their usual support. We will ask them to complete questionnaires to see if they found the therapy helpful. We will note how many participate, attend sessions, and complete questionnaires. We will check whether participants liked having MOL and will interview 10-12 of them to learn about what they thought. The research will be funded by The University of Manchester.
The mental health of adolescents in the United States has seen a steep decline since 2011, roughly coinciding with the increasing popularity of social media and smartphones. But does social media have a causal impact on the mental health of adolescents or are concerns about the effect of social media on kids a form of public hysteria? In this study, the investigators will conduct the first field experiment in 11-14-year-olds to examine whether, how, and for whom social media harms mental health.
The goal of the clinical trial is to test whether a mental health program that is delivered through the Internet works well for children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis (CF) and their healthy siblings. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the program improve the mental health such as depression and anxiety symptoms? - Does the program improve overall quality of life? - Does the program improve self-efficacy - an individual's belief in their ability to complete tasks to achieve their goals? Participants will: - Fill out an online survey asking questions about their personal and health information, as well as their mental health before the program - Complete the online mental health program - Fill out an online survey asking questions about their mental health after completing the program, and 1-month and 3-months following completing the program Participants be compared against another group of children with CF and their healthy siblings who are on a waitlist and receiving usual CF treatment. Researchers will compare participants scores before starting the program with their scores immediately following completing the program, 1-month, and 3-month after completing the program. Researchers hope to develop a program that improves mental health, quality of life, self-efficacy, and knowledge about CF.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare different well-being intervention components in healthy individuals. The main question it aims to answer is how an optimal emotional and social learning program should be composed. Participants will participate in one of 16 courses over 14-weeks which will have a varying combination of four components: - emotion regulation, - mindfulness, - self-acceptance and - resource activation. For each of these components there will be a control component. Further, there will be a waitlist-control-group included.
The aim of this exploratory study is to test the Strong Family (SF) programme in improving family functioning when implemented in Gilgit-Baltistan. Participants will be randomized to one of the two study arms 1)- Intervention group in which participants will receive 3 group sessions of SF programme (8-12 families per group) 2)- Control group (control group will be in the waiting list and receive SF training sessions once the study will be completed).
