The Internet shows its presence in areas where human beings are actively involved, from education to health, from entertainment to the investment sector. The integration of the Internet into many areas of human life leads to its intensive use. According to the Global Digital Report, the number of individuals with access to the Internet worldwide at the beginning of 2024 is stated as 5.35 billion, and this number constitutes more than 66% of the total world population. One of the pioneering studies on internet addiction was conducted by Young. In this study, five subtypes of internet addiction were identified. These are cyber sex addiction (obsessive use of adult sites such as cyber sex, cyber porn), cyber relationship addiction (excessive involvement in online relationships), net compulsions (online gambling, shopping and trading), information overload (on websites). and constantly surfing databases) and computer addiction (playing computer games). Considering the sub-dimensions of internet addiction, it is seen that it affects many areas of life, from family life to interpersonal relationships, from social life to economic life. Conscious awareness is the awareness of one's internal state and environment. Mindfulness can help people avoid destructive or automatic habits and reactions by learning to observe their thoughts, feelings, and other momentary experiences without judging or reacting. Acting based on awareness is a much different way of life than the autopilot approach in which the individual carries out his daily routines and activities. In studies, mindfulness is examined not only to prevent the recurrence of addiction, but also as a long-term, ongoing health behavior that supports the recovery of addiction. Determining the effect of a mindfulness-based intervention program applied to adolescent nursing students studying at a university on internet addiction and awareness. is intended.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of an mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) program designed in accordance with the literature and the basic principles of the program on fatigue, self-efficacy and stress for individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). Thirty members of the Multiple Sclerosis Society with multiple sclerosis were randomized as experimental and control groups. Participants in the experimental group received an 8-week MBSR program by an MBSR instructor. The patients in the control group continued to visit the society for their scheduled examinations and controls; no intervention was given to them. Outcome measurements consisted of Fatigue Impact Scale (FIS), Self-Efficacy Scale and Perceived Stress Scale.

The aim of this study is to examine the impact of a mindfulness-based intervention on professional quality of life, work engagement, and sleep quality in pediatric and neonatal nurses. A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the mindfulness-based intervention on professional quality of life, work engagement, and sleep quality among pediatric and neonatal nurses. Pediatric and neonatal nurses (number = 208) will be conducted at King Abdullah Hospital, Rahmah Hospital, Al-Basher Hospital, and Jordan University Hospital after getting the Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval from Jordan University of Science and Technology, in addition to the IRB from the Ministry of Health. The nurses will be allocated into two groups, one as an interventional group and one as a control group, and the participants will be asked to complete the pretest questionnaire (baseline pre-intervention) and then the post-test at the end of the intervention (8 weeks after baseline). Data will be collected using online questionnaires of the study variables and a demographic questionnaire for the participants. Data will be analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (version 26).
Many neighborhoods in Chicago experience daily exposure to stressors including economic inopportunity and violent crime in public spaces. There is mounting evidence that chronic psychosocial stress can facilitate carcinogenesis by modulating the gut microbiome and immune system. The proposed research aims to study the practice of mindfulness to mitigate CPS and reduce colorectal cancer risk factors among Black American women at elevated risk.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of an 8-week online yoga intervention in improving the well-being and productivity of desk-based workers. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How effective is an 8-week online yoga intervention in improving the well-being (mental and physical) and productivity (work engagement and job performance) of the yoga group compared with passive controls? - Are there any differences in well-being and work-related measures between the yoga and control groups? Participants in the yoga group will practice yoga three days a week for 8 weeks and will be compared with a wait-listed control group, which will continue with the usual routine for 8 weeks. Researchers will evaluate the impact of yoga on the well-being and productivity of desk-based workers.
The goals of this a three-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to evaluate the efficacy of mindfulness-based, culturally appropriate, and mobile phone-based smoking cessation intervention among Vietnamese adult male smokers. The intervention will be delivered via text messages, involving 1,200 adult male smokers, with 400 participants in each of three intervention arms (Cessation Intervention - culturally-adapted smoking cessation messages that incorporate mindfulness; Education Intervention - messages that solely focus on health risks of smoking; Control - basic messages that solely focus on general healthy lifestyle). The investigator will assess cessation rates up to 6-month follow-up, as well as secondary outcomes of knowledge of smoking health risks; stages of change; quit attempts; self-efficacy; cigarettes per day; and nicotine dependence. The investigators hypothesize that participants in the Cessation Intervention group (who will receive culturally-adapted messages) will have higher rates of smoking abstinence, greater knowledge of the health risks of smoking, more transitions from pre-contemplation/contemplation stages to planning/action stages, higher likelihood of making a quit attempt, higher self-efficacy for abstaining from smoking, greater reductions in cigarette consumption, and lower nicotine dependence, compared to participants in the Education Intervention group and Control group.
