Přehled studie

Detailní popis

The purpose of this study is to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) with low-income, suicidal African American women and men that compares the relative effectiveness of compassion meditation (CM) versus a support group (SG) for (1) reducing psychological distress (suicidal ideation, depressive symptoms, and shame); (2) bolstering interpersonal connectedness; and (3) enhancing self-compassion and mindfulness. It is hypothesized that at post-intervention and follow-up, compared to individuals in the SG, those in the CM intervention will endorse less psychological distress (suicidal ideation, depressive symptoms, and shame), more interpersonal connectedness, and greater levels of self-compassion and mindfulness.

Časové okno
Change in Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation (BSS) score
Časové okno: Pre-intervention - baseline (T1), post-intervention - at completion of 6 weekly sessions (T2), and at 6 week follow-up (T3)
The BSS is a self-report 19-item scale preceded by five screening items. The BSS and its screening items are intended to assess a patient's thoughts, plans and intent to commit suicide. All 24 items are rated on a three-point scale (0 to 2) total scores could range from 0 to 48. No specific cut-off scores exist to classify severity or guide patient management. Increasing scores reflect greater suicide risk, and any positive response merits investigation.
