Study Overview
Brief Summary
In our Supplement Aim we will conduct a two-arm randomized pilot test of the adapted intervention compared to a usual care control group among 30 African American/Black women with HIV (15/arm) to assess the feasibility and acceptability of the mindfulness-based stress reduction among women with HIV with mild cognitive impairment. Feasibility will be assessed by our ability to (1) recruit, randomize, and retain participants and (2) deliver the intervention per the manual, as well as (3) participants adherence to home practices and assignments. Acceptability will be assessed via qualitative data (focus group input regarding participants' satisfaction with the intervention and intent to continue using the practices), as well quantitative data (satisfaction survey).

Arms & Interventions
Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction

Intervention: Mindfulness (Behavioral)
Usual Care
The control condition will continue receiving usual care or standard of care.
Intervention: Usual Care (Other)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Feasibility of the Mindfulness Intervention in Women With Mild Cognitive Impairment
Time Frame: Immediately after the intervention(which consists of an orientation followed by eight weekly sessions, consistent with MSBR interventions), the measure was collected within one week of completing the final session.
Feasibility was measured using a four-item feasibility of intervention measure. Each item is scored using a Likert-like scale ranging from "1" completely disagree to "5" completely agree. Higher scores indicate greater feasibility. The minimum total score is 4 points, and the maximum total score is 20.
Secondary Outcomes
