Filter by:A visual impairment (VI) is often associated with reduced psychological wellbeing. Music can be used in a variety of ways to promote psychological wellbeing. Music intervention studies demonstrate that listening to music can provide a distraction from unpleasant thoughts/feelings. Hence, music may serve as a catalyst to improve mood and relieve feelings of depression, anxiety, and stress. The purpose of this study is to investigate if it is feasible for people with acquired VI to self-deliver daily music listening (music alone or with mindful music listening instructions) for wellbeing, in participants homes, for four-weeks, and to collect data remotely on efficacy in reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression and treatment fidelity.
This feasibility study builds upon mental health and technology acceptance theoretical frameworks. It seeks to examine potentials of a novel mobile Health (mHealth) solution based on emotional and behavioral change techniques, to provide emotional and self-management tailored support to caregivers of children undergoing Growth Hormone treatment (GHt).
MejoraCare-Paraguay main objective is to test a mHealth solution (MejoraCare app) to be used for the education and empowerment of chronic patients (COPD, cancer, diabetes, heart disease. hypertension, etc.), and for supporting healthcare professionals to monitor and better understand patients' evolution during the COVID-19 outbreak (MejoraCare dashboard). This mHealth solution is built upon the Adhera platform, which has already been validated in other therapeutic areas such as smoking cessation. MejoraCare is expected to raise awareness, educate and empower chronic patients, promoting behavioral changes towards adhering to healthier lifestyles thus reducing the risk of COVID-19 infection while providing emotional regulation support aiming at improving their mental health, quality of life, and emotional well-being.
Parental illness and death from HIV/AIDS has a profound and lasting impact on a child's psychosocial well-being, potentially challenging the basic needs for survival and compromising the child's future. Therefore, the impact of parental HIV/AIDS on children needs to be treated from both a public health and a developmental perspective. However, to date the role of a resilience-based approach among children affected by HIV is hypothesized but not evidence-based. In this application, we propose to develop a theory-guided, resilience-based, multimodal intervention by culturally adapting and integrating components from three SAMHSA model programs which show strong evidence in promoting protective factors among young children. The multimodal intervention will include three approach levels: the individual child (peer-group activities), the family (caregiver parenting skill training), and the local community (community advocacy). The short, medium, and long-term efficacy of the Child-Caregiver-Advocacy-Resilience [ChildCARE] intervention to improve health and psychosocial well-being of children will be evaluated over 36 months through a cluster randomized controlled trial. About 800 HIV/AIDS-affected children (8 to 11 years of age) and their primary caregivers will be recruited from central China where we have built a strong research infrastructure and community collaboration during our previous study. The primary outcome measures for the children will include physical health, mental health, growth and development, school performance, and a biological indicator of neurobiological stress response (salivary cortisol). The outcome measures at caregiver level will include parenting style, parental engagement, and mental health well-being. The changes at the community level will be measured using children's and caregivers' perceptions of social support and HIV-related public stigma. We will also examine the potential mechanism through which the ChildCARE intervention is exerting its impact by identifying improvement in protective factors and other individual and contextual factors that potentially mediate or moderate the intervention effect. This proposed project will examine whether the multilevel protective factors we identified in our initial project are amenable to intervention and whether their hypothesized changes explain improvement in children outcomes.
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Therapeutic Recreation Activities on Emotional Adjustment of Adolescents With Intellactual Disabilities. The research was carried out at Meram Melike Hatun Special Education Vocational School in Konya. The study took place between March 2019 and May 2019. The parents of the participants who participated in the study consisted of the experimental group (n = 17) and the remaining parents (n = 17) formed the control group and the sample group (n = 34). The personal information form which measures demographic characteristics developed by the researchers according to the literature, and Hacettepe Emotional Adjustment Scale were used. Data were analyzed in SPSS 22 program. According to Kolmogorov-Smirnov Z test, sample group was not normal. For this reason, non-parametric tests were performed. In descriptive data, the mean, number, percentage will be used; Comparative statistics were made according to the assumptions of non-parametric test (Wilcoxon test, Mann Whitney U test). Therapeutic Recreation Activities was applied as total of 16 sessions, consisting of two sessions per week and each session lasting about 1 hour. The program was implemented by researcher.
The purpose of this study is to see if music can help children practice how to manage their emotions.
