Filter by:Addressing health disparities, especially in the face of coronavirus pandemic, requires an integrated multi-sector equity-focused, community-based approach. This study will examine the impact of Harlem Strong Community Mental Health Collaborative, a community-wide multi-sectoral coalition in which a health insurer works with a network of community-based organizations, medical providers, and behavioral health providers to engage in a network-wide implementation planning process to: (1) problem-solve financing, access, and quality of care barriers, (2) support capacity building for mental health (MH) task-sharing for community health workers, (3) facilitate coordination and collaboration across MH/behavioral health, primary care, and a range of social services, including case management, housing supports, financial education, employment support, and other community resources to improve linkages to services, and (4) identify a set of common MH, social risk, and health metrics and strategies to integrate these metrics into data systems across the network for continuous quality improvement of the system. The long-term goal of our study is to develop sustainable model for task-sharing MH care that will be embedded in a coordinated comprehensive network of services, including primary care, behavioral/MH, social services, and other community resources.
The aim of the study will be to test the efficacy of a novel online-delivered gamification-based intervention for the identification, development, and use of strengths in the workplace. The program will be addressed to young employees and will have the aim of boosting their well-being and performance.
The present study aims to compare the differential effects of mindfulness meditation (MBI) and physical exercise (PE) on different stress, academic performance and health variables (self-report means and biological measure of IgA levels). A controlled trial of three groups is proposed, with pretest, posttest and two follow-ups at 1 and 3 months that would be developed among the Guardia Civil (Spanish military police) non-commissioned officers and officers academies.
Black children and adults in the United States fare worse across nearly every health indicator compared to White individuals. In Philadelphia, the location of this study, these health disparities result in a stark longevity gap, with average life expectancies in poor, predominantly Black neighborhoods being 20 years lower than in nearby affluent, predominantly White neighborhoods. The investigators will conduct a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a suite of place- based and financial-wellbeing interventions at the community, organization, and individual/household levels that address the social determinants of racial health disparities. At the community level, the investigators address underinvestment in Black neighborhoods by implementing vacant lot greening, abandoned house remediation, tree planting, and trash cleanup. At the organization level, the investigators partner with community-based financial empowerment providers to develop cross-organizational infrastructure to increase reach and maximize efficiency. At the individual/household levels, the investigators increase access to public benefits, financial counseling and tax preparation services, and emergency cash assistance. The investigators will test this "big push" intervention in 60 Black neighborhood micro-clusters, with a total of 480 children. The investigators hypothesize that this "big push" intervention will have significant impact on children's health and wellbeing.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of a probiotic strain on mental wellbeing in moderately stressed, healthy, adults in the general population. The main question it aims to answer is • what is the impact of probiotic consumption on overall mental wellbeing? Participants will consume one probiotic or placebo capsule per day, answer a set of questionnaire (at 3 time points) and wear a wearable device for the total duration of the study.
The goal of this study is to test the effect of informational and emotional social support (via nutrition education, mental health support, and/or baking classes) through two different communication modalities (online vs. mixed mode / hybrid) on physical and mental health outcomes Our research questions are the following. 1. Does an online social support program that provides informational and emotional support improve diet, anthropometry, and mental health? 2. Does a mixed-mode social support program that provides informational, emotional support through both online and face-to-face mode improve diet, anthropometry, and mental health? 3. Is a mixed mode social support program more effective in improving outcomes? Does meeting the group members face-to-face change the dynamics of online communication? If yes, what are the mechanisms? Are there differences in the following outcomes by communication modality? 1. Online bonding 2. Group identity 3. Quality of relationship
This study titled the Children to Adults Mental and Psychosomatic Health Study (CAMPS), aims to explore the interplay between mental health, psychosomatic factors, and adverse childhood experiences (ACE) across a broad age range, from school-age children to adults in China. The study will involve participants from various educational settings, including teachers, students, and parents, who will be recruited through schools. The assessment methodology will combine validated psychometric scales and behavioral experiments to comprehensively evaluate mental and physical health aspects and the impact of ACEs. This integrative approach is designed to illuminate the complex relationships between psychological well-being, somatic symptoms, and early life stressors across different life stages.
The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed healthcare delivery; arguably, the fields of obstetrics and pediatrics have experienced some of the greatest changes as they have transitioned away from their role as a medical home and into more of an urgent care model of care. Baby2Home is a digital health intervention designed to bridge the resultant gaps in obstetrics and pediatrics healthcare services for new families over the first year of life. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate whether, compared to usual care, Baby2Home 1) improves maternal, paternal, and infant health service utilization outcomes over the first year postpartum, 2) improves maternal and paternal patient reported outcomes, and 3) reduces racial/ethnic and income-based disparities in preventive health services utilization and parental patient reported outcomes.
The present study aims to compare the differential effects of mindfulness meditation (MBI) and physical exercise (PE) on different stress and health variables (self-report means and IgA and cortisol levels). A randomized controlled trial of three groups is proposed, with pretest, posttest and three follow-ups at 1, 3 and 6 months that would be developed among the Guardia Civil (Spanish military police) office staff.
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic situation, social and health professionals constitute a population in risk of developing psychopathologies due to the high levels of stress they experience. There is consensus regarding the need of offering these professionals psychotherapeutic evidence-based interventions addressed to reducing their stress levels and promote their wellbeing; because of the current situation, it is believed that online interventions might be the best-fitted approach. The research groups that present this project have leaded a research line that has proved the efficacy of online psychotherapeutic programs in the past. In the present project, the efficacy of the MINDxYOU program will be evaluated; this is an online intervention based on mindfulness techniques, compassion, and acceptance, and that has been developed specifically for social and health professionals. In addition, in order to overcome the gap that separates the validation of interventions and their posterior implementation, this project aims to perform an implementation study in which a hybrid design will be adopted to test the impact of the program in terms of efficacy and the feasibility of the implementation. The investigators will adopt the framework proposed by Hermes. et al., inspired in Proctor's recommendations. The study will be conducted in 2 autonomous communities (Aragón and Andalucía).
