Filter by:The aim of this study is to study the effectiveness of a whole-school approach that addresses non-suicidal self-injury and targets adolescents, parents and teachers. Whether training and interventions can influence NSSI will be examined. Furthermore, investigations will be conducted to examine whether this whole-school approach can reduce symptoms of mental health problems in adolescents, reduce stigma och increase help-seeking and perception of social support. Using a clustered waitlist control design, six lower secondary schools were randomized to either intervention or waitlist during four months (control groups were then given the intervention). Measures of NSSI, suicidality, mental well-being, stigma, attitudes, help-seeking and perceived social support were administered at baseline, after the intervention and at 6, 12 and 18-months follow-up. Two hundred and sixty-seven adolescents in seventh and eight grade participated in the study (135 active group and 132 control group). The interventions were delivered during four months. For adolescents, interventions were delivered in the class room and consisted of five sessions of the Youth Aware of Mental Health (YAM) program and one additional session focusing specifically on knowledge, stigma and attitudes toward NSSI (KRAS). Parents were offered an online psychoeducation on NSSI, as were all school staff during this time period. School health care personnel, nurses, psychologist and counsellors and other school staff, such as teachers' aids, support staff and mentors took part in a 2-day workshop on NSSI and suicidality.
The current study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of different online psychological interventions, including guided and unguided transdiagnostic cognitive behavioural therapy, and unguided mindfulness-based intervention, on mental well-being in comparison to waitlist control. It is hypothesized that participants with the guided psychological intervention will show (H1) a greater reduction in mental health symptoms, and (H2) better mental well-being compared with participants with unguided psychological intervention and the control condition.
Due to advances in medical technology and accessible health services, the prognosis of diseases has improved and the need for care has increased, and primary caregivers have experienced the increased burden of caring for family members for a long time. Because the patient is primarily responsible for continuing patient care in palliative care units and then at home, and especially because they have problems in psychological, social and financial support, caregivers within the family are considered as second-degree patients or occult patients. Studies have shown that caregivers have a significant burden of care, therefore they experience serious depression, anxiety and physical problems, isolate themselves from society, and their quality of life decreases significantly. In recent years, the use of virtual reality, which shows itself in different application areas in the field of health as a safe and useful system, has become widespread. Considering the use of virtual reality in the field of health; It is seen that it is mostly preferred for pain management, physical condition improvement, blood collection, burn treatment, and psychological disorder.
The present study consists of two two-armed randomized controlled trials between experimental and waitlist control groups. It aims to evaluate the effectiveness of conversational chatbot in improving mental health literacy, uptake of self-care behaviors, and mental well-being, compared to the waitlist control, and the effectiveness of daily notification on adherence. This study will provide important findings for the future development and implementation of chatbots in mental health, which may increase public access to immediate mental health support. It is hypothesized that participants in the experimental condition will show (H1) better mental health literacy (H2) better improvement in self-care and self-efficacy in mental well-being, and (H3) better mental well-being, compared with participants in the control condition. Also, it is hypothesized that participants with daily reminders will show (H4) a better adherence rate in using chatbot compared with participants without daily reminders
In the scientific literature, the responsibilities and pressures of medical school and residency are widely known for putting a strain on medical student's personal wellbeing, leading to high rates of anxiety, depression, burnout, and emotional discomfort. In this study investigators aim at evaluating the hypotheses on the effectiveness of a comprehensive Mindfulness-Based Intervention (MBI) in reducing this load. The intervention comprised 12 Integral Meditation (IM) classes, advice on health dietary behavior and brief yoga session. The effect of the intervention on medical students from Italian universities will be evaluated by performing a randomized trial through the analysis of nine questionnaires used for measuring the psychological outcomes of interest.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the online stepped-care mental well-being system together with offline programs in comparison to care as usual. This study will provide important findings for future health economic analyses of blended stepped-care mental well-being interventions which may increase public's access to mental well-being services and ease the long waiting time under the current public healthcare system. It is hypothesized that participants in the intervention group show (H1) greater reduction in depressive and anxiety symptoms, (H2) better improvement of well-being, (H3) better improvement of quality of life, and (H4) lower incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), compared to care as usual.
The proposed longitudinal project aims to understand parental influences on children's sleep and will investigate the effect of sleep-related parental factors - (1) parents' value of their children's sleep relative to other activities, (2) parental involvement in setting children's sleep habits and enforcing good sleep hygiene, and (3) parent's own sleep habits - on school-age children's sleep, mental health, socio-emotional resilience, and academic/cognitive performance. It will also investigate the impact of social economic status on these sleep -related parental factors.
These unparalleled size, nature and complexity of youth mental health problems would leave a huge gap to fill after the Millennium, which would need stratified and timely interventions to improve the mental well-being and metal health of the youth in the general population. The use of music has been explored in improving the mental well-being and mental health in the young people. The progressively digitalized lifestyle of the youth as the digital natives is paralleled by frequent use of online music in their daily activities. This means that online music interventions can be a new, youth-friendly and accessible means to deliver interventions to the youth to improve their mental well-being and mental health. Therefore, it is worthwhile to further explore the potential as well as underlying mechanisms of online music in improving youth mental well-being and mental health in the community among young people as a population lifestyle strategy. In this study, the investigators would conduct a Randomized Control Study on Brief Online Music Intervention (BOMI) by listening to a selected, guided and self-chosen online song each day actively in a personalized and focused way in improving the mental well-being of young people in the community. In the end, the possible design and promotion of specific, guided and evidence-based self-help brief online music intervention by listening to music daily as a lifestyle change can be an economic, convenient and evidenced-based mental well-being intervention strategy among the youth at a population level. Aim: To study the effects of listening to an expert-selected, theory-guided and self-chosen online song each day actively in a personalized and focused way (Brief Online Music Intervention: BOMI) in improving mental well-being among young people in the community in Hong Kong Hypothesis: Listening to an expert-selected, theory-guided and self-chosen song each day actively in a personalized and focused way (Brief Online Music Intervention: BOMI) can improve mental well-being in the community among young people
