简要总结
This clinical study aims to learn whether a psychological resilience training program is helpful for children aged 10 to 12 years. The program is designed to help children cope better with stress, get along better with others, and use digital media in a healthier way.
The main questions this study seeks to answer are:
Does the training increase children's psychological resilience?
Does it improve children's social adjustment and close relationships with family and friends?
Does it help reduce problematic media use?
Children who take part in the study are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group takes part in a psychological resilience training program, and the other group does not receive any training during the study period. Children and their parents complete questionnaires before the program and again after the program is completed.
详细描述
This study is planned as a randomized controlled interventional trial to evaluate the effects of a structured psychological resilience training program on multiple psychosocial outcomes in children aged 10-12 years. The study will be conducted in a school setting in Agri, Turkey.
A total of 50 eligible children who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study. After completion of baseline assessments, participants will be randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 25) or a control group (n = 25) using a simple randomization method. Group allocation will be coded to reduce potential bias during data analysis. Participants and their parents will not be informed about group assignment, and statistical analyses will be performed by an independent analyst who will be blinded to group codes.
The intervention group will receive a school-based psychological resilience training program developed for children and adolescents. The program will be delivered in a group format and will consist of 10 sessions implemented over a five-week period, with two sessions per week. The session content will include emotional awareness and regulation, self-awareness and identification of personal strengths, self-efficacy, coping with stressful situations, problem-solving skills, cognitive flexibility, social skills development, communication skills, utilization of social support resources, and media use awareness and self-control. The control group will not receive any intervention during the study period and will participate only in assessment procedures.
Data will be collected at two time points: at baseline (prior to randomization) and at follow-up after completion of the intervention period. Child-reported and parent-reported standardized measures will be used to assess psychological resilience, social adjustment, problematic media use, and parent-child relationship characteristics. The study will be conducted in accordance with ethical principles and will be approved by a university ethics committee prior to participant enrolment.
