Filter by:This study is a two-armed randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed at evaluating the effectiveness and adoption of a transdiagnostic mobile app intervention that focuses is on enhancing adaptive emotional regulation (ER) skills among university students.
This is a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy of AXS-05, compared to bupropion, in preventing the relapse of depressive symptoms in subjects with major depressive disorder (MDD) who have responded to treatment with AXS-05.
Depression is a leading cause of illness and disability in teenagers. Longer duration of untreated depression (DUD) is associated with greater severity, poorer outcome, and cognitive impairment. Stigma toward people with depression has been identified as a barrier to seeking help; therefore, reducing stigma toward young people at depressive risk could enhance their receptivity to seeking treatment. Social contact is a form of interpersonal contact with members of the stigmatized group and the most effective type of intervention for improvement in stigma-related knowledge and attitudes. In a prior study, the investigators developed short video interventions to reduce stigma and increase treatment seeking among adolescents with depression. The videos feature adolescent protagonists varied by race/ethncitiy and gender (Black girl, Black boy, White girl, White boy, Hispanic girl, Hispanic boy, nonbinary or transgender adolescent) who will share their experiences with depression, challenges, and recovery process. The investigators would like to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the efficacy of these tailored videos as compared to a video control condition (which provides information about depression and how to seek help but does not include a personal story) on reducing self-stigma and increasing help-seeking intentions and behavior at baseline, post, 2 week follow-up, and 4 week follow-up among adolescents ages 14-18 recruited via Cloudresearch. The videos will be shown again at 2 week follow-up.
The availability of affordable hardware and rapidly growing content that can be freely accessed in the public domain raises the possibility of VR being used across the world globally and, in a very broad range of settings, including low-income populations and middle-income countries. The goal of this study is implement a randomized control trial using a low-cost VR mindfulness intervention within older adults in Quito, Ecuador compared. The control group will only receive a check-in phone call.
The main objective is to update the diagnostic assessment of frailty by correlating several variables with the ultrasound image of the frail elderly patient. Secondarily, the investigators intend to collect and analyze data on functional capacity and quality of life variables on the evolution of musculoskeletal symptoms, as well as on pain and psychological variables. Similarly, it is intended to make a record of different profiles and subtypes of frail older adult patients to be stored in Big Data in order to establish therapeutic intervention plans that allow both the evaluation and treatment of patients.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a universal, digital, single-session intervention for youth mental health, functioning, and well-being, when implemented with Ukrainian children and adolescents. The intervention teaches well-established procedures that research has shown to be effective in helping American children calm themselves and regulate emotions, including slowed breathing and peaceful mental imagery. The intervention has not been tested previously with Ukrainian students. Participants will be provided access to this brief online program as part of the school curriculum. Students will be randomly assigned to receive the digital program either immediately or after 2 months. This 2-month lag will allow for evaluating the effectiveness of Project Calm in improving students' mental health, well-being, and self-calming skills. This will also allow for evaluating the effectiveness of such an intervention for war-exposed youths for whom these interventions may be especially helpful given the gap between these children's needs for mental health services and the very limited availability of clinicians
A single arm, pilot study in which all eligible participants will be enrolled in an 8-week coach-guided smartphone delivered CBT program. The full duration of the program, with follow-up interview, will be 9 weeks.
Many adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) have depressive symptoms, which negatively impact their quality of life. A lot of of the non-medicinal forms of treatment are not or hardly suitable for people with ID. Bright light therapy (BLT) seems to be a good option. Earlier research has shown that BLT is applicable in this group and seems promising in terms of reducing depressive symptoms, without serious side effects. In part 1 of this project we investigate the implementation of BLT at Amarant. We will take the lessons learned into part 2 of this project: the implementation of BLT at Abrona. We will evaluate this process and the outcomes.
This study will apply a comprehensive tools that integrates neuroimaging, psychological evaluation, and sleep monitoring through 18F-MPPF PET/MR, neuropsychological tests, and polysomnography (PSG) to explore the neurobiological mechanisms underlying transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) for depressive disorders, mainly focusing on the serotonergic system revealed by Serotonin-1A (5-HT1A) receptor.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences in treatment outcomes between individually tailored and transdiagnostic internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT), as well as the differences between weekly support by a specific therapist and weekly support by a team. The target group is adults (18 years or older) who experience mild to moderate depression symptoms, anxiety, stress or other psychological symptoms. The ICBT, in both types of treatment contents, consists of modules that the participants will work with for eight weeks in total. Participants will be recruited in Sweden with nationwide recruitment.
