Registration Number
NCT03869749
Lead Sponsor
Colorado State University
Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of Learning to BREATHE (a mindfulness intervention for adolescents) plus an ecological momentary intervention (Learning to Breathe Plus), and will examine the extent to which mindfulness reduces dysregulated stress physiology, perceived stress, and anxiety in adolescents from high conflict homes.

Detailed Description

Adolescents from homes with interparental conflict will be randomly assigned to Learning to BREATHE Plus (the standard group program designed to increase mindfulness, plus a multi-method adaptive intervention that will be comprised of an ecological momentary intervention and online library of mindfulness practices) or to a health and wellness active control condition to determine feasibility, acceptability, and potential effectiveness of Learning to BREATHE Plus.
