Filter by:The current proposal aims to 1) develop a technical platform and implementation plan for the delivery of a virtual reality-based mindful movement therapy (VR-MMT) protocol for older adults; and 2) conduct a clinical trial to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an 8-week, 16-session module VR-MMT intervention for this population. The findings of this study will help us to identify engagement barriers and refine the intervention contents as well as the study protocol necessary for the preparation of grant applications to conduct a controlled clinical trial. This study is innovative and high impact as this is the first study to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a VR-MMT intervention that could potentially ameliorate cognitive and mobility decline and promote psychological wellbeing in older adults by combining a widely accessible technology and creative embodiment-based approach.
The aim of the research is to identify innovative methodologies to improve the psychological well-being of ageing people.
We have developed an online learning resource designed to support healthcare staff during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. This resource has been produced in anticipation of the psychological effect of working during this time. This is an open access, free, online resource available here: https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_22794 It is designed to be relevant for healthcare staff, and we are evaluating it now with healthcare students as our next generation of healthcare staff. We are interested in knowing more about your views of healthcare students towards this package. This will help us to determine its value as a learning resource to support psychological wellbeing in healthcare students, alongside other welfare supports. The aim is to describe the views of healthcare students towards an e-learning package developed in response to COVID-19 on Psychological Wellbeing for Healthcare Workers.
This study will examine the feasibility and efficacy of lifestyle medicine for the enhancement of psychological wellness in police officers. The integrative lifestyle intervention is based on the "Healthy Body Healthy Mind (HBHM)" programme developed by the University of Melbourne. It includes lifestyle psychoeducation, physical activity, nutrition and diet, relaxation/ mindfulness, and sleep. These components are weaved with psychological elements such as stress management, cognitive restructuring, motivational interviewing, and goal setting strategies that are led by clinical psychologists. While lifestyle medicine has been recognised for centuries a a mean to improve physical health, the field of lifestyle medicine in the context of mental health is still in its infancy. Nevertheless, there is increasing evidence demonstrating the efficacy of individual components of lifestyle medicine (e.g. diet, physical activities, and sleep) on mood and stress management. With a well-researched lifestyle medicine programme adopted from Australia, the research team of the Chinese University of Hong Kong has customised the intervention protocol to fit the Chinese culture, and has conducted a pilot trial to test the protocol across different communities and work populations. The investigators aim to examine the effectiveness of an integration of multiple lifestyle adjustments on psychological wellness from a holistic body-mind perspective. Acknowledging that police officers are one of hte work populations with stressful work nature, it is in a hope that lifestyle medicine would be effective to facilitate stress coping and enhance the psychological wellness of police officers in the long run.
