简要总结
This investigation will examine the feasibility of delivery and effect on resilience, depression and anxiety of a 90-day Heartfulness Practice delivered virtually for health care students. It is hypothesized that by providing this program on-line, students will be able to attend easily and complete the sessions. It is also hypothesized that those students who participate in the meditation program will increase resilience.
详细描述
This investigation will examine the feasibility of delivery and effect on resilience, depression and anxiety of a 90-day Heartfulness Practice delivered virtually for health care students.
SPECIFIC AIMS (SA) SA1: Determine feasibility and acceptability of delivering the 90-day Heartfulness Meditation Program virtually. Feasibility will be assessed by participant compliance, retention, and acceptability to the participants.
Criteria: Feasibility will be achieved by Compliance with average of at least 3 trainer led meditations / week Retention of 75% of participants at the end of 45 days (intermediate point) and 90 days (primary end point).
Criterion: Acceptability will be indicated by a CSQ8 score > 17. SA2: Examine the benefits of Heartfulness meditation on improving resilience, decreasing depression, and decreasing anxiety of health care students.
H2: At the end of 90 days (primary end point), students who participate in the Heartfulness Resilience Training (HEART) will have better resilience (CD-RISC) compared with students who do not participate and will have less anxiety and depression (HADS).

结局指标
主要结局
Acceptability as measured by the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8)
时间窗: 45 days, 90 days
8-item measure of satisfaction that is rated on a 4-point Likert scale and has a score range from 8 to 32. Higher scores indicate greater levels of satisfaction. For this study, we will assign 3 levels of satisfaction: 1) dissatisfied or least satisfied (score 8-16); 2) satisfied (score 17-30); and 3) very satisfied (score 31-32)The CSQ-8 has good test-retest reliability, internal consistency and sensitivity to treatment
Change in Resilience as measured by Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC)
时间窗: Baseline, 45 days, 90 days
25 item self-report questionnaire developed to quantify resilience and the impact of psychoeducation and resilience therapy techniques. Total scores range from 0-100 with higher scores indicating greater levels of resilience. The CD-RISC has been used in a variety of populations.
Change in Anxiety/Depression as measured by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)
时间窗: Baseline, 45 days, 90 days
14-item screening scale developed to indicate the potential presence of anxiety and depression. HADS consists of a 7-item anxiety subscale and a 7-item depression subscale. The HADS has good validity and reliability and has been studied in a variety of populations
Feasibility as measured by the Number of Meditation Sessions Completed
时间窗: 90 days
