Mind-Body Medicine Training for Incarcerated Men and Women
The goal of this study is to learn about how effective a Mind-Body Medicine Training Program is for prisoners. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does the training program increase resilience?
- Does the training program reduce depression, anxiety, and/or stress?
- Does the training program increase optimism?
- Does the training program increase prisoners' belief that they can have better coping skills?
- Does the training program increase a sense of meaning in life?
- Does the training program increase a sense of life purpose?
Participants will attend a 2-part mind-body medicine training program (4 days for each part) and will fill out questionnaires before the training, after the training and 6 months after the training. They will also participate in group interviews after the training and 6 months after the training.

Experimental: Mind-Body MedicineTraining
A two part (4 days for each part) mind-body medicine training program
|
A mind-body medicine training program that teaches mind-body skills including meditation, autogenics and biofeedback, guided imagery, body awareness, genograms, and self-expression through writing and drawings.
The first 4 day training consists of lectures and small groups where the mind-body techniques are practiced.
The second 4 day training allows participants to lead a mind-body skills group and teach the techniques under supervision.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change from Baseline on Resilience using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) after the 8 day training and at 6 month follow-up
Time Frame: Baseline, after the 8 day training, and at 6 month follow-up
|
The CD-RISC is a validated, self-report instrument assessing resilience over the last month.
The CD-RISC consists of 25 questions that are rated on a 5-point scale with higher scores representing greater resilience.
Change = After the 8 day training score- Baseline score; Follow-up score - After the 8 day training score; and Follow-up Score - Baseline score

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change from Baseline on Depression, Anxiety, and Stress using the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale -21 (DASS-21) after the 8 day training and at 6 month follow-up
Time Frame: Baseline, after the 8 day training, and at 6 month follow-up
|
The DASS-21 is a validated, self-report instrument assessing the emotional states of depression, anxiety ans stress over the past week.
The DASS-21 consists of 7 questions each for depression anxiety and stress are rated on a 4-point scale with higher scores representing higher levels of depression, anxiety, and stress.
Change = After the 8 day training scores- Baseline scores; Follow-up scores - After the 8 day training scores; and Follow-up scores - Baseline scores
|
Baseline, after the 8 day training, and at 6 month follow-up
|
Change from Baseline on optimism using the Life Orientation Test - Revised (LOT-R) after the 8 day training and at 6 month follow-up
Time Frame: Baseline, after the 8 day training, and 6 month follow-up
|
The LOT-R is a validated, self-report instrument assessing optimism.
The LOT-R consists of 10 questions that are rated on a 5-point scale.
Four of the questions are "filler questions" and are not calculated in the total score.
Higher scores represent greater levels of optimism.
Change = After the 8 day training score- Baseline score; Follow-up score - After the 8 day training score; and Follow-up score - Baseline score.
|
Baseline, after the 8 day training, and 6 month follow-up
|
Change from Baseline on coping - self efficacy using the Coping Self-Efficacy (CSE) Scale after the 8 day training and 6 month follow-up
Time Frame: Baseline, after the 8 day training, at 6 month follow-up
|
The CSE Scale is a validated, self-report instrument assessing coping self-efficacy.
The CSE scale consists of 26 questions that are rated on scale from 0 "cannot do at all" to 10 "certain can do".
Higher scores represent greater levels of coping self-efficacy.
Change = After the 8 day training score- Baseline score; Follow-up score - After the 8 day training score; and Follow-up score - Baseline score.
|
Baseline, after the 8 day training, at 6 month follow-up
|
Change from Baseline on meaning in life using the Meaning in Life Questionnaire (MLQ) after the 8 day training and 6 month follow-up
Time Frame: Baseline, after the 8 day training, and at 6 month follow-up
|
The MLQ is a validated, self-report instrument assessing meaning in life.
The MLQ consists of 10 questions that are rated on 7- point scale.
There are 2 subscales: presence of meaning and search for meaning.
Higher scores represent greater levels of these two components of meaning in life.
Change = After the 8 day training score- Baseline score; Follow-up score - After the 8 day training score; and Follow-up score - Baseline score.
|
Baseline, after the 8 day training, and at 6 month follow-up
|
Change from Baseline on purpose in life using the Life Engagement Test (LET) after the 8 day training and 6 month follow-up.
Time Frame: Baseline, after the 8 day training, and at 6 month follow-up
|
The LET is a 6-item scale made up of items that are framed in half positive and half negative directions.
These items are then rated using a 5-point scale that ranges from "1 = strongly disagree" to "5 = strongly agree".
Higher scores represent a greater sense of life purpose.
Change = After the 8 day training score- Baseline score; Follow-up score - After the 8 day training score; and Follow-up score - Baseline score.

How the Mind-Body Medicine Training has Affected the Participants by using Focus Group Interviews
Time Frame: After the 8 day training and at 6-month follow-up
|
Two focus group interviews will be conducted with approximately 10 participants each.
Focus group questions will cover topics such as practice of the mind-body techniques, how the training has affected the participant in terms of relationships, how they view their future, and how they are going to used what they have learned.
