Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The proposed study will collect novel data evaluating the feasibility of the NFB training program delivered in an outpatient mental health setting and its influence on mothers' overall sense of well-being, and further investigate whether enhanced well-being is associated with positive changes in emotion regulation capacities, trauma-related mental health symptoms, parenting behaviors and attitudes, and infant behavioral outcomes (i.e., crying, fussing) among postpartum mothers with a history of childhood trauma and clinically concerning trauma-related mental health symptoms.

NCT ID: NCT05994105 Completed - Self Esteem Clinical Trials

Integration of Augmented Reality in Expressive Art Therapy for Borderline Personality Features

Start date: April 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

From the last decades, applied approach for the use of augmented reality on clinical and health psychology has grown exponentially. Hence, the present study is aimed to examine the effectiveness of augmented reality for the treatment of borderline personality features in young adults. For the purpose, it is hypothesized that (i) borderline personality features of experimental groups will be reduced in posttest followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy (ii) Borderline personality features of experimental group will decrease significantly as compared to control group in the post test followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy (iii) Borderline personality feature of self-destruction will be reduced in posttest followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy (iv) Borderline personality feature of affect regulation will be reduced in posttest followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy and (v) Borderline personality feature of negative self-perception will be reduced in posttest followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy. For the present purpose, a total of 20 subjects experiencing symptoms of Borderline personality features will be screened and recruited from the Umeed e Nau clinics of the Institute of Professional Psychology Bahria University Karachi Campus by initial screening of the subjects. Participants will be monitored through pre and post-screening of Borderline Symptoms Checklist assigned to an experimental (treatment group) and control (waiting list) group using convenient sampling. The experimental group will receive the Management plan; which will be comprised of total 14 sessions. The effectiveness of the intervention plan will be measured via quantitative measure (the latest version of SPSS).

NCT ID: NCT05702528 Recruiting - Headache Clinical Trials

A Wearable Nerve Stimulator for Chronic Migraine/Headache and Mood Disturbance in Adolescents

Start date: December 8, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this clinical trial is to test a wrist-worn nerve stimulator in adolescents with chronic migraine/headache and mood disturbance. The main question it aims to answer is whether this device is effective in relieving clinical symptoms including pain, anxiety, depression and sleep disturbance. Participants will wear the device for twelve weeks and complete monthly surveys throughout the study.

NCT ID: NCT05690126 Recruiting - Mood Disturbance Clinical Trials

Effect of Saffron Extract Supplementation on Emotional Well-being Alterations

SAFFROMFOOD
Start date: December 8, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to test whether a saffron extract represents a good candidate to improve emotional well-being in subjects with subclinical symptoms of depression, fatigue, stress or anxiety. Given that mild depression, both subclinical and chronic, was shown to predispose to major clinical depression, early initiation of neuroactive nutrient supplementation may be useful to prevent or counteract the onset of chronic depression. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of nutritional supplementation with saffron extract during 6 weeks in alleviating emotional well-being alterations in healthy adults presenting subclinical symptoms of depressed mood, anxiety, fatigue and/or stress. The secondary objectives are to assess the impact of saffron extract supplementation on the mood and neurovegetative components of emotional well-being and quality of life, namely: - depressive and anxious symptoms; - neurovegetative symptoms (fatigue, sleep quality); - perceived stress and quality of life. The exploratory objectives correspond to the biological assays for the evaluation of - the stress response system (stress hormones); - the inflammatory status; - saffron metabolites; - metabolome.

NCT ID: NCT05474534 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder

An Intervention to Enhance Well-Being in Trauma Exposed New Mothers

Start date: February 13, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This pilot randomized controlled trial will evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a mobile neurofeedback intervention for increasing maternal overall well-being, and measuring whether mothers experience any subsequent reductions in trauma symptoms and parenting stress and enhancements in regard to emotional regulation, parenting sensitivity and positive parenting behaviors, as well as infant socio-emotional development and behavioral outcomes (i.e., crying, fussing) among postpartum mothers with symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. The investigators hypothesize that mothers who receive the neurofeedback intervention will demonstrate larger decreases in mental health symptoms, greater improvements in emotional regulation and observed parenting behaviors, increased feelings of parenting competency, decreased feelings of parenting stress, and reductions in the potential for child maltreatment than mothers in the control group. The investigators also hypothesize that infants of mothers who receive the neurofeedback intervention will demonstrate less crying and fussiness and higher scores on socio-emotional developmental assessments than infants of mothers in the control group at the posttest interval.

NCT ID: NCT05447091 Completed - Depressive Symptoms Clinical Trials

Examining the Effectiveness of a Tablet Video Game on Mood and Cognition

THRIVE
Start date: June 12, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Sustained negative mood and depression are characterized by functional impairment, and significant reduction in quality of life. Cognitive models of depression emphasize the role of impaired cognitive control - the mental abilities determining goal directed behaviors - in contributing to depressive symptoms. Indeed, research findings from subclinical and clinical populations show that depressive symptoms are associated with decreased cognitive control abilities. The THRIVE trial is a double-blind, proof-of-concept randomized controlled trial (RCT). The aims of the study are to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of an innovative, custom-made tablet video game, Legends of Hoa'manu (LOH), which is designed to enhance cognitive control, in alleviating mood and improving cognitive control in adults. Participants with mild to major depressive symptoms will be randomized to receive either LoH or a control intervention. Cognitive control, mood and depressive symptoms will be assessed at baseline, post training, after at a 3-week and a 3-month follow up.

NCT ID: NCT05422599 Completed - Sleep Disturbance Clinical Trials

Enhancement of Sleep Quality and Mood Following Supplementation With Lemon Balm in an Adult Population (Lemslp)

Start date: May 5, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to investigate the effect of a 4-week dietary intervention of 300mg encapsulated aqueous lemon balm extract on measures of sleep quality, mood and well-being, alongside relevant biomarkers of circadian rhythms in healthy adults aged 18-40 years with mild sleep problems (PSQI entry of 5 and above). Three visits to the university alongside completing some home tests involving self-test stool, saliva and mood tests and wearing an wrist-secured actiwatch over 4-weeks whilst recording a daily sleep diary will be monitored to estimate sleep changes. Mood ratings, stool and saliva biomarkers will serve as a proxy to sleep improvement.

NCT ID: NCT05252598 Withdrawn - Anxiety Clinical Trials

Mood and Cognitive Effects of Psilocybin in Healthy Participants

MELO
Start date: January 2023
Phase: Early Phase 1
