D-Stress Baltimore: School-based Mindfulness Instruction for Primary Prevention of Mental Health and Behavioral Problems in Middle School
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Effective strategies to ameliorate the negative effects of stressful urban living are greatly needed. D-Stress Baltimore (DSB) is an evidence-based mindfulness-based instructional program of stress-reduction techniques, found to reduce mental health problems across many adult populations. The investigators propose to conduct a randomized controlled trial of the 12-week school-based DSB program compared with a 12-week school-based health education control program at Elev8 schools among 5th-8th graders to assess if DSB program is beneficial for mental health and behavioral problems among public middle-school students.
