简要总结
The objective of this study is to administer a brief, phone(voice)-based training program in mindfulness (or control task of active listening to narrated articles) to older adults who receive primary care services at NM. Older adults represent a population that is at risk for depression and anxiety, especially during the current COVID-19 pandemic and the social isolation it entails. Many older adults also possess relatively low access to application-based mindfulness training opportunities. The monitoring aims are:
- To determine whether the experimental intervention (mindfulness training) performs better than a control task (active listening) in improving mood assessed using the Profile of Mood States (POMS) and/or anxiety assessed using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI).
- To determine whether the experimental and/or control intervention is associated with quantified changes in language use (e.g., frequency of negative word use), which may or may not also be associated with changes in mood and anxiety.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in anxiety assessed using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI).
时间窗: 1 month
The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) is psychological inventory consisting of 40 questions rated on a 4-point Likert scale. Higher score correlates with higher levels of anxiety.
Change in mood assessed using the Profile of Mood States (POMS)
时间窗: 1 month
The Profile of Mood States (POMS) is a widely used instrument that measures mood using a 65-item questionnaire with each item rated using a response scale of five categories ranging from "not at all" to "very strong". Higher score indicates worse mood.
