The primary aim of this study was to determine whether an 8-week mindfulness-based intervention, called Training for Mindfulness and Resilience (TMR), mitigates moderate mental health symptoms and increases resilience during a 2-year follow-up.
Methods
The participants were 34 schoolchildren in age range of 9-14 years, reporting moderate mental health problems. Participants were randomised into either TMR intervention group (N=22) or control group, receiving best current practice (N=12). The investigators used validated self-rating questionnaires to measure anxiety, depression, anger, disruptive behaviour, self-concept, resilience, stress and mindfulness before treatment with either TMR or control, as well as at 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after treatment period.
