The goal of this pilot project is to test for initial efficacy of the Recovery & Care Canine-Assisted Therapy program that has been developed and implemented in Lawrence Hall, a Chicago-based residential treatment center for maltreated youth, in comparison to a matched sample of youth from Lawrence Hall receiving treatment as usual. Results from this project will provide preliminary evidence of whether a structured, goal-oriented intervention program focused on dog training activities has direct impact on increasing youth emotional self-regulation, impulse control, and self-efficacy, which are important targets for intervention among youth with mental health problems. If successful, this project could lead to a larger, randomized control clinical trials study that tests the longitudinal impact of the program that could further lead to national dissemination of the Recovery & Care curriculum as an alternative therapeutic approach.
The goal of this pilot project is to test for initial efficacy of the Recovery & Care Canine-Assisted Therapy program that has been developed and implemented in Lawrence Hall, a Chicago-based residential treatment center for maltreated youth. In this study, the investigators test the feasibility, acceptability, and short-term efficacy of expanding the program to a group of youth currently in outpatient treatment for social, emotional, and behavioral problems. Results from this project will provide preliminary evidence of whether a structured, goal-oriented intervention program focused on dog training activities has direct impact on increasing youth emotional self-regulation, impulse control, and self-efficacy, which are important targets for intervention among youth with mental health problems.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether blended Forensic Ambulant Systemic Therapy (FASTb) is equally effective as regular FAST (FASTr).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of DTXO App in improving weight loss and weight-loss maintenance in obese patients exposed to an experimental non-pharmacological treatment program. The App will include a dietary plan and customized advice program, a customized physical exercise program plan, a cognitive- behavioral assessment and support program, alerts and reminders on prescribed drugs intake and on dietary and exercise program, chat and online visits with clinical professionals, and trophies to improve patient engagement.
This study is a large population-based analysis in the United Kingdom (UK) using routine primary care data to investigate the risk of mental health conditions in children, adolescents and young adults with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, compared to those without Inflammatory Bowel Disease. The study will also compare the impacts on quality-of-life outcomes and use of healthcare services between people with Inflammatory Bowel Disease with and without mental health conditions.
We propose addressing these aims by conducting a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that will evaluate the hybrid BPT (Myndlift BPT) compared to a wait-list control group. All participants will receive the Myndlift BPT at either the initial point of randomization or following the wait-list time period. The Myndlift BPT consists of 10, self-directed app-based BPT modules accessible through an online mobile application with each module requiring up to 30 minutes of parent's time. Therapist contact ("parent-therapist consults") will be based on parent need. We anticipate approximately six standard 20-minute therapist contacts during the Myndlift BPT (one prior to the start of the app-based BPT modules, four parent-therapist consults during the app-based BPT modules, and one final parent-therapist consult at the end of app-based BPT modules). Additional parent-therapist consults will be based on parents' needs. In addition, therapists will monitor parent progress and challenges with the app-based BPT modules using a web-based therapist portal. The therapist may initiate additional parent-therapist consults if s/he deems it necessary based on client progress, and contacts can be longer than 20 minutes if needed. All consults are completed through Zoom telehealth platform. Given the self-directed nature of the Myndlift BPT (parents decide how frequently they access the app-based modules of BPT and practice the skills), parent involvement in the intervention will vary slightly in duration. However, based on the literature and routine practice, we anticipate parents completing one module/week in the app-based parent feature for a total of 10 weeks with an additional therapist supported session at the start of the intervention and one at the end of the intervention for a total of 12 weeks of involvement in the Myndlift BPT. The research assessment (see details below) will occur at baseline and at the end of Myndlift BPT. Given that the assessments are linked to participant progress in the Myndlift BPT, participant involvement in the study will also slightly vary, but we anticipate that most parents will complete the assessment during a standard 12-week Myndlift BPT schedule.
This trial investigates how receiving instruction in communication skills affects short and long-term career outcomes for students, postdoctoral fellows, and future faculty. This may help researchers learn more about the factors that may help or block career goals and career persistence of trainees.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a a pilot trial that tests the acceptability, fidelity, and feasibility of ED-TREAT.
Since the 1990s, neuroscience, with functional MRI, has made it possible to understand the beneficial neurophysiological effect of music on man and his brain. They have shown that music stimulates brain plasticity and contributes to the reorganization of the affected neural circuits. The concept of cerebral plasticity and cerebral symphony have thus been developed. In March 2008, the HAS (High Authority for Health) proposed in its recommendations good practices concerning the management of neurodegenerative diseases that "Music therapy, aromatherapy, multisensory stimulation ... could improve certain of behavior's aspects ". Music has shown that memory capacity can remain present in people with Alzheimer's disease even in the advanced stages. Music also improves the well-being of patients with Alzheimer's or mixed dementia living in institutions and reduces the suffering of caregivers. It improves communication with others, including those who have lost the usual codes of communication and improves the quality of sleep of elderly people living in institutions. However, although musical interventions have recently gained popularity as a non-pharmacological treatment for dementia, the scientific evidence warrants further research.
