简要总结
In the current study, the researchers propose to develop and pilot test a Bharatanatyam (i.e. Indian classical dance) program called Mindful Kala with the hopes of decreasing stress and increasing psychosocial well-being, mindfulness, cultural competence, and connectedness amongst a group of college students. The investigators hope that this program can help students cultivate well-being during the challenging and stressful time of COVID-19.
详细描述
Objectives:
- Evaluate the effects of the Mindful Kala program on outcomes of health-related measures such as mindfulness, stress, connectedness, and wellbeing amongst students. The investigators hypothesize that participants will experience fewer symptoms of stress, increased mindfulness, increased well-being, and increased connectedness.
- Evaluate the effects of the Mindful Kala program on changes in measures of cultural competence. The investigators hypothesize that the level of cultural competence will increase among the students.
- Develop and examine the feasibility and acceptability of a 4-week Mindful Kala program for college students.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in mindful awareness from Mindful Kala Intervention
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks
A primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Mindful Kala program increases mindful awareness of the present moment. This will be measured by the State Mindfulness Scale for Physical Activity (min = 0; max = 4) which consists of 11 scale items. The higher the score, the more mindful participants are. Participants who received the intervention in Session One will be compared to the control (Session Two).
Change in subjective well-being from Mindful Kala Intervention
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks
A primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Mindful Kala program increases subjective well-being. This will be measured by the PERMA Scale (min = 0; max = 10) which consists of 15 scale items. The higher the score, the higher participant well-being. Participants who received the intervention in Session One will be compared to the control (Session Two).
Change in stress from Mindful Kala Intervention
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks
A primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Mindful Kala program reduces student stress levels. This will be measured by the Perceived Stress Scale (min = 0; max = 4) which consists of 10 scale items. The higher the score, the more likely participants are stressed. Participants who received the intervention in Session One will be compared to the control (Session Two).
Change in cultural competence from Mindful Kala Intervention
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks
A primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Mindful Kala program increases cultural competence. This will be measured by the Cultural Competencies Self-Assessment Survey (min = 0; max = 5) which consists of 26 scale items. The higher the score, the more culturally competent participants are. Participants who received the intervention in Session One will be compared to the control (Session Two).
Change in connectedness from Mindful Kala Intervention
时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks
A primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Mindful Kala program increases connectedness. This will be measured by one question asking questions how connected they feel to the Yale community (min = 1; max = 5). The higher the score, the more connected participants feel. Participants who received the intervention in Session One will be compared to the control (Session Two).
