About this study

The overall objective of this study is to investigate a mindfulness-based intervention's feasibility/acceptability and effectiveness for improving eating behaviors and depression symptoms among adolescents (9-18y; 63% living on low-income), referred to a community-based mentoring program for being "at-risk for not reaching their full potential" (e.g., Department of Human Services involvement, behavioral/emotion problems). As a part of this study, we will also characterize the real-time relationships among life stressors, untrained state mindfulness, and emotion regulation difficulties in adolescents' daily lives and determine to what extent an MBI helps adolescents to maintain mindfulness and emotion regulation in moments when they experience a stressor.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Reward-based Eating Behaviors

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 6 months

  2. Internalizing and Externalizing Symptoms

    The Brief problem monitor (Achenbach et al., 2011) will be used to assess for changes in internalizing (e.g., depression symptoms) and externalizing symptoms for all participants.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 6 months

  3. Mindfulness

    The mindfulness attention and awareness scale (Brown \& Ryan, 2003) will be used to assess for changes in mindfulness for all participants

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 6 months

  4. Emotion Regulation

    The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale-Short Form (Kaufman et al., 2016) will be used to assess for changes in difficulties with emotion regulation for all participants

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 6 months
