Depression Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effectiveness of a Yoga Intervention in Improving the Wellbeing and Productivity of Desk-based Workers
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.

---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Perceived Stress Scale | The questions in this scale ask about your feelings and thoughts during the last month. In each case, you will be asked to indicate how often you felt or thought a certain way. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | PROMIS-Anxiety Short form | The 7-item PROMIS Anxiety Short Form assesses the pure domain of anxiety in individuals age 18 and older. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | The Short Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale (SWEMWBS) | The SWEMWBS is a short version of the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWBS). The WEMWBS was developed to enable the monitoring of mental wellbeing in the general population and the evaluation of projects, programmes and policies which aim to improve mental wellbeing. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | The Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) | The trait MAAS is a 15-item scale designed to assess a core characteristic of mindfulness, namely, a receptive state of mind in which attention, informed by a sensitive awareness of what is occurring in the present, simply observes what is taking place. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | The Cornell Musculoskeletal Discomfort Questionnaire (CMDQ) | The Cornell questionnaire was used to determine the level of pain among office employees in response to rest breaks and ergonomic modifications. Musculoskeletal discomforts, particularly pain severity among office employees, can be collected by the Cornell questionnaire shown to be a valid and reliable tool. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | Self-Compassion Scale Short Form (SCS-SF) | The Self-Compassion Scale - Short Form (SCS-SF) is a 12-item self-report measure that is used by adults to measure their capacity for self-compassion - the ability to hold one's feelings of suffering with a sense of warmth, connection and concern. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | The Compassion Scale (CS) | The CS has the same general structure as the SCS and measures compassion for others. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | Uterecht Work Engagment Scale-Short Form (UWES -9) | The UWES utilizes three scales to determine the level of work engagement:
Vigor, dedication, and absorption. It is a test of how to measure work engagement both on an individual and on group level: vigor, dedication, and absorption. |
8 Weeks | |
Primary | Work Ability Index (WAI) | It measures current work ability compared to highest work ability ever. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | Center for Epidemiologic Studies Short Depression Scale (CES-D-R 10) | This scale is a self-report measure of depression. | 8 Weeks | |
Primary | Heart Rate Variability (HRV) | HRV is simply a measure of the variation in time between each heartbeat. This variation is controlled by a primitive part of the nervous system called the autonomic nervous system (ANS). It works behind the scenes, automatically regulating our heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, and digestion among other key tasks. But in recent years, companies have launched apps and wearable heart rate monitors that monitor HRV. We are using a Polar H10 heart rate sensor to measure HRV of participants to see physiological changes in stress levels due to practising yoga. | 8 Weeks |
