研究概览
简要总结
This research study seeks to understand how stress reduction training influences caregiver well-being, sleep, and physiological responses to stress. All participants are caregivers of persons with dementia. Participants will complete a 14-day, online stress-reduction intervention which involves approximately 25-30 minutes of daily practice.
详细描述
The research project will be conducted over approximately 9 months and will consist of three data collection sessions for each participant. The three data sessions will occur before, after, and at 3-month follow-up of an 14-day, online stress-reduction training, in which participants will be asked to complete about 25 to 30 minutes of practice each day in one of two stress-reduction techniques. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a mindfulness training program or a reappraisal training program. The mindfulness training emphasizes mindfulness-based techniques to reduce stress and promote well-being, whereas the reappraisal training emphasizes cognitive strategies to change one's perception of the stressor as a way to reduce stress and promote well-being.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Sleep Quality: Actigraph
时间窗: Baseline to 2-weeks (post-intervention), and 3-month follow-up
Actigraphic measure of limb movements used to calculate sleep efficiency, which is an assessment of the quality of sleep participants have.
Change in Sleep Quality
时间窗: Baseline to 2-weeks (post-intervention), and 3-month follow-up
We will use a sleep diary that involves self-reported sleep habits, which we will use to calculate sleep onset, wake after sleep onset, and sleep efficiency. This will allow us to understand any changes in overall sleep quality across the intervention.
Change in Eudaimonic well-being
时间窗: Baseline to 2-weeks (post-intervention), and 3-month follow-up
54 item self-reported scale assessing change in eudaimonic well-being from pre to post-intervention. Will be assessed using the Scales of Psychologica Well-being (SPWB; Ryff \& Keyes, 1995) 1 = strongly disagree, 6 = strongly agree. This scale range applies for the 6 subscales, which can stand-alone, or be summed to obtain a total Eudaimonic Well-Being score. For this study, we are primarily interested in investigated changes over time of the summed score for eudaimonic well-being. Higher scores indicate higher eudaimonic well-being.
