主要结局
coping with stress
时间窗: Change from Baseline level of Coping with stress to 8 weeks (change is being assessed)
The scale is a 23-item self-report measure of anxiety using a 5-point Likert-type scale. The scale does not have a cut-off point. The higher the score obtained from the scale, the better the coping is determined.
Anxiety
时间窗: Change from Baseline level of Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety to 8 weeks (change is being assessed)
The scale is a 20-item self-report measure of anxiety using a 4-point Likert-type scale (from 0 to 3 points) for each item. The total score obtained from the scale varies between 20 and 80. A large score indicates a high level of anxiety, and a small score indicates a low level of anxiety.
