In this study the investigators will evaluate the effectiveness of Mindhelper.dk, which is the most comprehensive online youth mental health promotion service in Denmark. A minimum of 9,426 young people aged 15 to 25 will be recruited through social media and invited to participate in the study. When responding to the baseline questionnaire participants will be randomized to either the intervention or control group. The intervention group will receive information about Mindhelper.dk and inspiration on how to use Mindhelper through text-messages during the study period. The control group does not receive information about Mindhelper.dk, until after completion of the last follow-up questionnaire. Three follow-up questionnaires will then be sent to the participants 2 weeks, 6 weeks and 12 weeks after randomization. The investigators expect a small, positive effect on participants well-being and psychological functioning in intervention groups as compared to the control group.
This study aimed to determine the effect of the Facilitating Self-Transcendence Psychoeducation Program, which will be applied to mothers of children with special needs, on well-being, self-transcendence, self-reflection, and insight.
The goal of this quasi-experimental observational study is to evaluate the impact of an individually tailored digital service aimed to support healthy habits on well-being, lifestyle behaviors, and mental health among the adult population. The main questions it aims to answer are: I) Is a digital service developed to personalize support for healthy habits effective in improving well-being compared to a control group in the general population after 6 months? II) Does the digital service improve dietary and physical activity habits, mental health, and well-being among users across 24 months? III) Are sociodemographic factors associated with achieving the self-identified goals and improvements in dietary and physical activity habits, mental health, and well-being? IV) Do the intended mediators (engagement with the service, improved motivation, improved self-efficacy, and reduced barriers) mediate the effects of the digital service on achieving the self-identified goal, improved dietary and physical activity habits, mental health, and well-being? V) How is the pattern of user engagement across 24 months? Participants are users of the mobile phone application LongLife Active®. Researchers will compare with individuals in the general population to see if the digital service is effective in improving well-being, dietary and physical activity habits, and mental health.
Stress and psychosocial risks are a major public health problem.Sophrology is a psycho-corporal method exclusively verbal and non-tactile used as a therapeutic technique. It combines a set of techniques that will act both on the body and on the mind through breathing exercises, muscle relaxation and mental imagery (or visualization). It allows to find a state of well-being and to activate all physical and psychological potential in order to acquire a better knowledge of oneself. Sophrology demonstrated some benefits on symptoms of patients. However, these approaches have never been evaluated with a prolonged follow-up of several months, with biological measures or with adjustments according to the levels of mastery of sophrology. This project proposes to evaluate the effects of sophrology practice. The investigators aim to evaluate both subjective and objective measures of stress.
The Effect of Mandala Activity on Happiness and Well-Being Levels in Elderly People Living in Nursing Homes: Colorize Life Project
Focusing on emotions is valuable because "how a person feels, reacts, and expresses emotions can have both short-term and long-term effects on physical and mental health". This is explained by mechanisms such as reappraisal, attention regulation, self-monitoring, self-awareness, and regulation of the autonomic nervous system. Because yoga reduces negative emotions such as anxiety, anger, and depression, teens are likely to result in less conflict and stress in their lives. It is thought that it is also important for young people to accept difficult feelings and to be able to accept and approve these feelings. When negative emotions are acknowledged and witnessed, they often dissolve or transform, and the process allows the individual to learn about their limits, preferences, and needs. Processing emotions in this way allows a person to be honest with oneself and can contribute to healthier development. Therefore, yoga appears to be a useful well-being tool and practice that schools should adopt, as it can increase life skills for students such as concentration, memory, relational skills, and decision-making that are affected by emotions. Emotional well-being is important for learning in life and school. As noted earlier, research supports such a view, but more research is needed to understand how and why yoga should be offered to young people in their schools. However, it is suggested that researchers further explore the role of yoga in the management of emotions, both in terms of emotional processing and regulation of emotions. The role of yogic breathing (pranayama) as part of a holistic perspective on yoga, and specifically the role of yoga in the relationship between being with emotions, regulating emotions, and how it relates to change, should be further explored. It has been described in the literature that care should be taken to avoid possible harm to individuals associated with the use of unhealthy weight control behaviors among young adults and women with obesity. Yoga's intent to strengthen and support a positive sense of self makes it a particularly viable strategy for healthy weight management for women and those at high risk for poor body image. Finally, it has been reported that reductions in perceived stress may mediate the effects of participation in a yoga program on negative emotional and behavioral problems. It has been suggested that future studies may also assess the extent to which exposure to stress and trauma may affect youth's participation in and benefit from mindfulness and yoga interventions. Considering all the suggestions and research needs in the literature, this study was planned to examine the improvement in self-esteem, life satisfaction, body image, anxiety, depression and cognitive emotion regulation levels of university students after their participation in the yoga program provided to them in the school environment and to compare them with students who do not do yoga. In the study, it is planned to investigate the pre-exam anxiety levels of university youth who regularly practice yoga.
Purpose: This study aims to determine the impact of mindfulness-based stress reduction programs on the psychological resilience and well-being of intensive care nurses. Design: The study was planned as an experimental study with a randomized control group, using pre-test, post-test and follow-up test. Hypotheses: H1: The resilience level scores of the nurses in the intervention group participating in the mindfulness-based stress reduction initiative will increase compared to the nurses in the control group. H2: Nurses in the intervention group participating in the mindfulness-based stress reduction initiative will increase their well-being level scores compared to the nurses in the control group. H3: The psychological resilience level posttest and follow-up scores of the nurses in the intervention group participating in the mindfulness-based stress reduction initiative will increase compared to their pretest scores. H4: The well-being level posttest and follow-up scores of the nurses in the intervention group participating in the mindfulness-based stress reduction initiative will increase according to their pretest scores.
The study is designed to compare the efficacy of a simple, non-spiritual, self-management strategy that can strengthen personal and occupational resources-resources that can positively impact adverse reactions to military-specific demands and promote personal and work outcomes. Our app-based intervention, designed to strengthen a balanced self-identity through affirmation of growth and balance values, will be adapted to military occupational contexts, utilizing an existing self-management strategy (QE) to a military occupational context to maximize it effectiveness in strengthening participants' balanced sense of self, which we expect to have positive benefit on personal and work outcomes in military service members.
