Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of listening to lullabies and self-selected music at home in reducing the distress experienced in the prenatal period and increasing maternal attachment in pregnant women. This parallel randomized-controlled study was carried out at obstetrics outpatient clinics in Turkey. For two weeks and 30 minutes every day at home, the lullaby group (LG) only listened to the lullaby record selected by the researcher, while the multi-music group (MG) listened to self-selected music from different records presented to them by the researcher. The control group (CG) only received routine care. Prenatal distress and maternal attachment levels were assessed at the beginning and end of the intervention.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the ability to recruit and retain participants, and to successfully conduct a psilocybin-based protocol, for a study of the treatment of distress related to inoperable pancreatobilliary cancer. Secondary objectives include pre/post, and longitudinal measurement of distress in intervention participants and a paired family member who is in an observational arm.
This study seeks to evaluate how work conditions affect workers' health and well-being, job attitudes and decisions on the job, and key organizational outcomes. This study is being carried out in partnership with a national retailer's e-commerce division. The study centers on a cluster randomized trial evaluation of changes in workplace policies and practices in order to understand their impact on workers, families, and the firm but also utilize multi-method data to gain a better understanding of the stressors and sources of resilience for this growing, but understudied population of low-wage workers.
This study investigates access, effectiveness, and acceptability of 1-day ACT workshops on problematic mental health symptoms.
The central aim of this study is to test the efficacy of the Healthy Minds Program (HMP) app, an intervention designed to promote well-being. The investigators plan to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving 1100 participants comparing 4-weeks of the HMP app with an active control (Psychoeducation [HMP without meditation practice]), and a waitlist control in a sample of United States adults with elevated depression symptoms.
This project is a randomized controlled non-inferiority study that aims to cover knowledge gaps about the composition and development of plasma proteins, inflammation markers and mental health in Norwegian, voluntary, and unpaid blood donors who donate plasma and blood. We will include 120 male blood donors who are randomized into three groups, the first donating plasma by plasmapheresis 3 times every 2 weeks, the second donating plasma by plasmapheresis every 2 weeks and the third donating whole blood every 3 months. Blood sample analyses are done before, every 2 weeks during the donation period and after the donation period. Questionnaires regarding mental symptoms, Hopkins Symptoms Checklist 25, are done before and after the donation period. The donations extend over 16 weeks and the participants are followed up with blood tests 2 and 4 weeks after the last donation. A plasma sample from each sampling will be stored in an biobank in Innlandet Hospital Trust. The donation frequency are based on the Council of Europe's latest guidelines for plasmapheresis which allow 33 plasma donations per year with at least 96-hour intervals and previous national guidelines. The project is useful to ensure that frequent plasma donations, which are necessary to increase plasma production and the degree of self-sufficiency of plasma products in Norway, do not pose a health risk to blood donors. The primary objective is to assess the safety of blood donors donating plasma, by comparing the change in total protein and immunoglobulin G concentrations between donors who will be donating plasma 3 times every 2 weeks with donors donating plasma every 2 weeks and blood donors donating regular whole blood every 3 months. The secondary objectives are to compare the concentrations of other plasma proteins and inflammation markers and describe the development of these during plasma and blood donations between the three donations groups, compare the dropout rate and the degree of psychological distress measured by Hopkins Symptoms Checklist 25.
This is a prospective clinical epidemiology study based on the naturalistic follow-up of a cohort of 1 500 young people aged 11 to 25 presenting consecutively over the course of one year at the Relais d'Ile de France. Young people will be assessed on entry into the system (T0), at the end of the follow-up (T1) and 6 months after the end of the follow-up (T6).
The proposed study seeks to elucidate the mechanisms underlying Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy in pregnancy to improve understanding of how and why this treatment modality enhances well-being, which can then be leveraged to optimize treatment for psychological distress emerging during this vulnerable period.
The purpose of the current protocol is to describe a cluster randomized feasibility trial examining the integration of a scalable stress management intervention into Entre Nosotras ('among/between us'), a community-based psychosocial intervention for migrant and host community women in Ecuador and Panamá. Specifically the study aims to: 1. Explore the relevance, acceptability, and feasibility of integrating a stress management intervention into community-based participatory women's group 2. Examine the feasibility of conducting a fully-powered cluster randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness and implementation of integrating a stress management intervention into a community-based participatory women's group as compared to community-based participatory women's groups alone.
The purpose of this study is to assess the interplay between self-criticism and symptom severity in patients undergoing psychotherapeutic treatment.
