Clinical Trial Description

Introduction: Some very successful stress management programs are based on the principle of Mindfulness. This protocol proposes a well-being program, delivered through an application for mobile devices, based on meditation and positive psychology principles such as human development, the improvement of virtues, quality of life and well-being. In the modern world, young people are connected to new technologies and the use of applications can be a fun way to learn how to cope with stress and promote well-being. In this sense, the investigators hypothesize that this program offered in mobile application can be considered an interesting alternative for high school students who want to reduce symptoms related to stress and also promote well-being. Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of a well-being program delivered through an application for mobile devices in a sample of high school students. Methods: Sixty high school students will be recruited. The participants will be randomized in two groups of 30 participants each one, half of them in the control group (GC) and the other half to the intervention group (GI). The GI will participate in the Flourishing App Program, for eight weeks, while the GC will have access to a Control App. Then, after the evaluations, the GC will receive the intervention (Flourishing App Program), while the first group will repeat the use of the Flourishing App Program. Questions will be applied to evaluate the levels of stress and well-being of participants before and after the program and before and after each training period. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
