Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the culturally adapted skills-training START NOW in youth migrant populations. The main question it aims to answer is: Is the culturally adapted skills training START NOW more effective than treatment as usual (TAU) in reducing mental health problems in migrants? Participants will be randomly assigned to the intervention group receiving the skills training START NOW Adapted or the control group receiving TAU. Researchers will compare both groups to see if START NOW Adapted is more effective than TAU in reducing mental health problems in migrants.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-threatening exocrine gland disease that is often diagnosed in childhood, and its incidence tends to increase and affect physical and mental health.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Intervention Program Based on Strengthening the Psychological Resilience of Children Diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis and Their Mothers, prepared for children with CF (8-12 years old) and their mothers.In the first stage, the CF experiences of children with cystic fibrosis and how they perceive these experiences will be examined with visual phenomenology, and their mothers' CF experiences and perceptions will be examined with phenomenology. In this regard, 10 children will be asked to draw pictures and their pictures will be analyzed. In-depth individual interviews will be held with mothers.In the 2nd stage, the effectiveness of the Intervention Program Based on Strengthening Psychological Resilience for Children Diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis and Their Mothers will be determined with a pre-test-post-test randomized controlled experimental design.In the literature review, Gpower analysis was performed (α: 0.05, β: 0.99, d: 1.88) based on the results of studies conducted with children diagnosed with CF and their parents, similar to this study, and 15 samples were used for each group. It is planned to recruit people. Considering the possibility of data loss in the study, it was always deemed appropriate to include 22 people for the group. It was planned to sample a total of 88 children with CF and their mothers, 44 in the intervention group and 44 in the control group. In the 3rd stage, after the experiment, the participants' experiences regarding the intervention program will be examined through interviews and qualitative research method. Thus, qualitative interviews will be conducted before and after the experiment. Data will be collected using these tools: Children; Child and Mother Descriptive Characteristics Form, Semi-Structured Interview Form,Respiratory Function Test, Reorganized Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire, Psychological Resilience Attitude and Skills Scale and Functional Disability Inventory; Mothers; The Revised Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire, The Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale, Post-Traumatic Growth Scale and Brief Psychological Resilience Scale. Measurements will be taken before the intervention, after the intervention, at the 1st and 3rd months.
In the present research study, aiming to explore the links between several psychological factors and chronic pain, the research seeks to develop an inclusive framework to investigate the role of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) in patients' pain perception and overall quality of life throughout their pain management programs. Specifically, attachment styles (AS) and pain-related resilience processes are considered as potential mediators of the effectiveness of chronic pain management programs. Additionally, biological measures are proposed to investigate physiological parameters of pain and to further explore the degree of consistency between self-reported measures, ACEs, ASs, chronic stress, and several epigenetic biomarkers.
The aims of this study are to (1) identify the advance care planning deliberation process among 20 dyads of patients with advanced cancer and family caregivers and (2) conduct usability testing among 9 dyads to refine the content and design of the web-based resilience-building intervention.
An implantable cardiac defibrillator (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator; ICD) can effectively improve heart rhythm problems and reduce sudden death, and is widely used in the treatment of high-risk patients with fatal arrhythmias or heart rhythm problems that cannot be controlled by drugs . In the whole case of arrhythmia, after receiving home-based cardiac fibrillator treatment, Patients often experience uncertainty, feel the changes in heart, feel the shock of being shocked by the electric shock, and worry about death, These psychological distress, which were characterized by anxiety and depression. for universal. About 25% of patients present with symptoms of anxiety at the time of hospitalization, and 50% suffer from depression which seriously affects quality of life. Therefore, the main purpose of this study to alleviate the occurrence of anxiety and depression, promote disease patients to regain life adaptation, develop accessible care strategies with midfulness-based intervention to help patients overcome psychological distress, reduce stress, anxiety and prevent depression.
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) have long been linked to mental health problems in adulthood. In the case of cancer, no study has considered that such an anteriority could make patients more vulnerable emotionally, even though the presence of reactionary disorders such as stress, anxiety or depression are characteristic of such a pathology. Activated during periods of stress and therefore during the illness, even the attachment system is mobilized and must be considered to allow more understanding of the illness experience. The attachment style can be seen here as an individual dimension that plays a role in the emotional regulation and resilience of patients. It is also particularly solicited during the remission phase, a complex and singular period of cancer disease that confronts patients with an ambivalence of hope and fear. The fear of recurrence is a concern that the cancer may return or progress in the same organ or in another part of the body. This is a determining factor in the occurrence of anxiety-depressive disorders. Finally, several studies have shown a strong association between depression/anxiety and Cancer-Related Fatigue (CRF) after treatment, especially during the remission phase. ACEs leave physiological and epigenetic impact that can nowadays be easily evaluated, thus providing additional evidence between adversity, physiological and epigenetic vulnerability and the ability to adapt to life's challenges such as cancer. Life history changes are mediated by changes in cellular mechanisms affecting genome expression. It is currently widely demonstrated that ACEs increases epigenetic modifications. The interest of this project is therefore to highlight the psychological consequences related to the occurrence of cancer in the developmental history (in terms of adversities) of patients who have completed adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer, taking into account the patients' previous attachments, resilience, fear of recurrence and perceived fatigue in order to consider their interactions and their effects on their psychological health and ultimately on their quality of life.
The study approach is to leverage the most cutting-edge techniques of multi-omics biology, wearable physiology, and digital real-time psychology profiling and using machine learning models to understand the mechanisms underlying the strategies and techniques that enable participants the power to initiate and maintain sustainable behavior change. Over the years, millions of people worldwide have attended immersive personal development seminars aiming to improve participants' health behaviors and wellness. Nevertheless, there's a scarcity of large-scale studies to assess their effects on behavior change and investigate their mechanism of action. A recent publication by the Science of Behavior Change Program (SOBC), launched by the National Institute of Health (NIH), recognized that: "science has not yet delivered a unified understanding of basic mechanisms of behavior change across a broad range of health-related behaviors, limiting progress in the development and translation of effective and efficacious behavioral intervention." As such, understanding the mechanisms underlying sustainable behavior change is key. The Date With Destiny (DWD) seminar is among the largest worldwide, and tens of thousands of people have already attended and testified to its transformative effect. The main objective of the study is to uncover the underlying mechanism of behavior change through longitudinal data collection of psychometrics Ecological Momentary Assessments, physiology (wearables), and biology (multi-omics) in study participants. The study specific objectives include: (1) To evaluate the impact of DWD on sustainable behavior change; (2) To investigate the mechanism of behavior change by collecting longitudinal real-time measurements of psychometrics (e.g., Ecological Momentary Assessments [EMA]), physiological (e.g., heart rate, blood oxygen level, breathing rate, and EDA), and biological (multi-omics analyses) features in study participants; (3) To assess the effect of the DWD on professional fulfillment, resilience, and mental wellness.
A randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of group-based positive psychotherapy on psychological resilience, depression, well-being, sleep quality, dehydroepiandrosterone in only-child-lost people. A total of 80 only-child-lost people who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were expected to recruit. There were six weeks in the intervention, including positive introduction, positive reaction, gratitude, meaningful, three good things, and using personal strength. The measurements were conducted at the baseline, immediately after the intervention, 3-month after the intervention.
This is a cross-sectional observational study where investigators are trying to see the associations between factors contributing to obesity (dietary behavior and physical activity), resilience (self-efficacy, self-esteem, and optimism), and HRQoL in Indian adolescents. The key research question and sub-questions are as follows: Main research question: Is there a relationship between resilience (measured as self-efficacy) and obesity in children? 1. What is the level of other resilience factors (measured as self-esteem and optimism) among overweight, obese, and normal-weight adolescents? Are there differences between the groups? Are there differences between ages? Are there differences between genders? 2. Is there a relationship between resilience factors (measured as self-esteem and optimism) and HRQoL among overweight, obese, and normal-weight adolescents? Are there differences between the groups? Are there differences between ages? Are there differences between genders? 3. Is low resilience (measured as self-esteem, self-efficacy, and optimism) associated with overweight or obesity among adolescents and a lower HRQoL? Are there differences between ages? Are there differences between genders? 4. What is the level of association between resilience (identified as self-esteem, self-efficacy, and optimism) and factors contributing to obesity (dietary habits - measured in terms of more frequent unhealthy eating, such as eating fast food, sugary beverages, more calories, and less frequent healthy habits, such as more junk foods for meals, less physical activity, higher BMI, or higher weight-for-age Z scores, more body fat percentage and psychosocial factors related to obesity: socio-economic status
Background: By the end of 2020, the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic resulted in over 84 million cases and nearly 2 million deaths. Continued confinement and restriction are expected to negatively affect mental health, however, some individuals are likely to show much less negative impact than others. The characterization and neurobiological determinants of brain resilience vs vulnerability during the pandemic should generate critical knowledge and open future avenues for individually tailored interventions. Objectives: 1. Identify the individual psychobiological determinants of resilience during COVID-19 pandemic. 2. Conduct a non-invasive brain stimulation intervention to modulate the expression of resilience brain networks. Methods: Barcelona Brain Health Initiative participants will be included, encompassing multiple assessments before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Machine learning techniques will be applied to define brain networks signature of resilience. Subsequently transcranial alternating stimulation will be used during a controlled trial intervention to promote the expression of brain resilience networks. Expected results: The present project should provide critical new knowledge on brain mechanisms underlying resilience and first evidences of the feasibility and impact of modulating brain resilience networks in terms of its effects on mental health of participants.
