Mind-Body Skills Group for Graduate Students

Официальное название

Integrative-Mind-Body Skills Group for Mood Management Among Medical Graduate Students

Обзор

Integrative-Mind-Body Skills Group (I-MBS-G) is an 8-week group that teaches skills to build inner resources for effective mood management. This group incorporates a holistic approach to wellness through meditation and mindfulness practices, guided imagery, breath and body awareness, and relaxation techniques. Mind-body approaches have demonstrated effectiveness in reducing stress mood symptoms and improving quality of life. The study hypothesis is that the Mind-Body Skills taught in the group will reduce mood symptoms in graduate and medical students.

Подробное описание

Study Design: This study will identify medical graduate students interested in participating in an Integrative-Mind-Body Skills Group (I-MBS-G) to strengthen inner resources to effectively navigate complex and stressful daily events to promote mental and physical health and well-being. This study is a pilot randomized controlled trial; participants will be randomized to the intervention or control group. The control group will receive Treatment-As-Usual (TAU) and mind-body skills reading materials.

Primary Objective: Assess the feasibility and acceptability of an I-MBS-G intervention for medical graduate students using the MBSG Feedback Program Questionnaire.

Secondary Objectives: Assess preliminary effectiveness of I-MBS-G on anxiety symptoms (i.e., improvements on anxiety symptoms)

Exploratory Objectives: Assess preliminary effectiveness of I-MBS-G on depression symptoms (i.e., improvements on depression symptoms)
