Background: Non-invasive brain stimulation showed to be effective in reduce stress related cognitive and mental-health consequences. Thanks to technological advances these devices are now very easy to use and suitable to hoe-based self-administration. Objective: Conduct a home-based and tele-supervised non-invasive brain stimulation intervention to modulate the expression of resilience brain networks. Methods: Transcranial direct current stimulation will be used duringa tele-supervised home-based stimulation intervention to promote the expression of brain resilience networks. Expected results: The present project should provide critical new knowledge and evidences of the feasibility and impact of modulating brain resilience networks in terms of its effects on mental health of participants, including the possibility to implement future self-administered, home-based interventions.
Aim: We conducted this randomized controlled study to determine the effect of laughter yoga practiced by first year nursing students before clinical practice on their perceptions of stress and meaning of life. Background: Laughter yoga has a positive effect on the person's mental/general health, life satisfaction and psychological well-being and enables the person to cope with stress. Design: In this experimental randomized and controlled study including a control group, we administered a pre-test, post-test one and post-test two to the participating students. Methods: We conducted the study with 45 first year nursing students in the intervention group, and 45 first year nursing students in the control group. The students in the intervention group took part in eight sessions of laughter yoga for four weeks, twice a week. We used the Descriptive Information Form, Perceived Stress Scale, and Meaning and Purpose of Life Scale to collect the study data.
The objective of the investigators' mental health promotion intervention premised on the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) framework in secondary school settings aims to enhance young people's psychological flexibility and reduce their emotional distress. ACT is an evidence-based approach that encourages individuals to act in alignment with their identified values. The investigator's team will employ an ACT protocol for adolescents developed by Louise Hayes and Joseph Ciarrochi. The study includes a single-group study design. The investigator will compare the pre- and post-intervention data to assess the feasibility and potential effectiveness of the group intervention.
The goal of this study is to find the best way to help participants and families manage the stress of facing a serious illness and be better able to "bounce back" or be resilient after a difficult situation. Participants will take part in the "Promoting Resilience in Stress Management" PRISM program, which is designed to provide skills to change or improve the impact of stress in everyday life. The name of the intervention used in this research study is: -PRISM (a mobile app program comprised of 6 sessions of skills-based, manualized resilience education)
The previous survey of oncology patients at University of California, San Francisco in 2020-2021 found an alarmingly high symptom burden and high levels of stress and loneliness among respondents. This is a follow-up study with the same sample of oncology patients and survivors who participated in the previous study
The objective of this clinical trial is to observe the effect of Virtual Reality (VR) and Progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) in stressed individuals. Procedure: Students will be invited verbally and procedure will be explained to them. 20 students will be recruited randomly into control and experimental group. Stress will be predicted using multiple questionnaires. Pss is given before and after the intervention. The students in control group will be given 10 mins session of PMR for 3 consecutive days and in intervention group will be given 10 mins session of PMR followed by 8 mins session of VR for 3 consecutive days in which specific landscapes i.e mountains, forests, nightskies and beaches.
The objective is to validate a psychotherapeutic group protocol of dance as therapy created by LOBA association with a comparative non-randomized study.
The aim this crossover designed study is to examine the effect of watching a relaxing video with using virtual reality glasses (VR-G) during the break period of a working shift on the stress levels of surgical nurses. Nurses will be asked to watch a relaxing video with using VR-G for 20 minutes at their break time (the first procedure). After one-week wash-out period, researchers will compare second procedure (no video watch with VR-G) to see if there is any difference on the stress levels of the nurses.
This virtual, open-label, three-group, randomized-controlled trial will last six weeks. Participants will be allocated into three groups; the Intervention Group, Spotify Group, and Control Group. All participants will complete a baseline questionnaire before completing their designated regime daily for six weeks. In addition, participants will complete study-specific surveys and validated questionnaires at the end of each week (Week 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6). The study will include 75 [participants in total, 25 per group, who all have self-reported concerns around anxiety, stress, or depression. Questionnaires will be used to monitor sleep, cognitive ability, and changes in symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Both study-specific questionnaires and validated questionnaires will be utilized, including the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Assessment (GAD-7), the 9-question Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), and The World Health Organisation- Five Well-Being Index (WHO-5). Likert scale responses will be examined from baseline to each check-in. Participant responses on product feedback will be presented as % scores.
