The goal of this clinical trial is to test psilocybin in combination with mindfulness training in healthy adults. The main question it aims to answer is "Does mindfulness training enhance the effects of psychedelic therapy (psilocybin) on mental health?" Interested individuals will complete an initial eligibility session and eligible participants will then be randomized into one of two groups: one dose of psilocybin (administered under the supervision of study therapists) combined with 8 weeks of weekly mindfulness training classes (Arm 1) or psilocybin alone (Arm 2). Both groups will complete baseline and post-treatment assessment sessions where they will complete questionnaires and have an EEG (a measure of electrical activity in the brain). Both groups will also complete 2 follow-up surveys (at 8 weeks and 1 year after the post-treatment assessment) either online through REDCap or by phone or video call with a research assistant.
This study aims to explore the feasibility of implementing and evaluating a class-based intervention in three Danish primary schools. The intervention includes class choir among all students in 0 to 3rd grade as part of the regular school schedule.
US residents who have obesity and sign the informed consent form and are screened and enrolled for this study. Participants who are enrolled complete a survey upon enrollment and are randomized into one of two arms. This study is direct to participant and will not utilize clinical sites.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a 6-month pilot randomized trial to determine the feasibility and acceptability of theory-based mobile weight loss interventions for survivors of adolescent and young adult cancer (AYAs). The interventions use a mobile smartphone application, previously developed for individuals at risk for type 2 diabetes and adapted for AYAs, that integrates weight and physical activity from digital devices with simplified dietary monitoring in a behavioral weight loss program.
The aim of this randomized controlled experimental study is to examine the effect of laughter yoga applied to intensive care nurses on perceived stress, work motivation, and mental well-being.
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the impact of the Communities Organizing for Power through Empathy (COPE) intervention in adults in communities having recently experienced or at risk of experiencing disaster. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How does the COPE intervention affect individual mental health? - How does the COPE intervention affect protective factors like coping and social support? - How does the COPE intervention affect community resilience? - How does delivery of the COPE intervention in partnership with a broad-based organization affect participant recruitment and retention, as well as outcomes? Participants will participate in the three session COPE intervention. Researchers will compare individuals who participate in the COPE intervention to individuals who participate in house meetings to see if the COPE intervention improves mental health, coping, social support and community resilience. Researchers will also examine factors that affect implementation and intervention delivery.
Clinical experience has shown that adolescents have great difficulties in getting to mental health care centers. The investigators want to find a specific way to follow up with the adolescent public. This study sets up a digital mental health application offering a tele-consultation space, a chat space with mental health professionals, a forum space, a news and therapeutic education space. The objective of the study is to evaluate the acceptance of the digital tool by the adolescent between 11 and 18 years old. To do this, the investigators determine the number of connections to the tool during the 6 months of support.
People sometimes wait a long time for psychological therapy and could have this sooner if they had only one session. This is because they may only require one session to meet their needs if this is provided quickly (Cannistrà et al., 2020) and may therefore require less therapy overall, and if they can access this, then services can run more efficiently, and overall capacity of services to offer therapy can increase. Some therapies are hard to deliver in one session. But the method of levels (MOL) was conceived to be highly flexible with respect to session length and number of sessions, and this makes it easier to use in one-off sessions. It is designed to help people focus on problems they describe as being most relevant to them and to find their own solutions. We want to know if we can give one session of MOL to people seeking help from their GP. We want to see if they find it helpful. So we need to find out if they want and attend the session and if they tell us about it. This will help us decide whether to run a larger study exploring whether one session of MOL can help meet the goals of people seeking GP support. This could tell us whether MOL could help reduce waiting times. We will ask people using GP surgeries if they want to participate. They will be offered one session of MOL with their usual support. We will ask them to complete questionnaires to see if they found the therapy helpful. We will note how many participate, attend sessions, and complete questionnaires. We will check whether participants liked having MOL and will interview 10-12 of them to learn about what they thought. The research will be funded by The University of Manchester.
The mental health of adolescents in the United States has seen a steep decline since 2011, roughly coinciding with the increasing popularity of social media and smartphones. But does social media have a causal impact on the mental health of adolescents or are concerns about the effect of social media on kids a form of public hysteria? In this study, the investigators will conduct the first field experiment in 11-14-year-olds to examine whether, how, and for whom social media harms mental health.
