Detaljeret beskrivelse
Objective 1: Evaluate the Efficacy of Natural Psychotherapy on Primary Outcomes (Anxiety Symptoms and Rumination) To evaluate the short-term and sustained efficacy of the Natural Psychotherapy program in reducing anxiety symptoms and maladaptive rumination among primary and middle school students compared to standard schooling.
Objective 2: Assess the Impact on Secondary Outcomes (Psychological Well-being, Emotional Regulation, Stress, Sleep, Self-Esteem, Depression, Life Satisfaction, and Social Support) To assess the effects of the Natural Psychotherapy program on secondary psychological outcomes, including mindfulness, perceived stress, resilience, insomnia severity, self-esteem, depressive symptoms, life satisfaction, eudaimonic well-being, and perceived social support, and to examine whether improvements in these domains mediate the primary outcomes.
Objective 3: Explore the Mechanisms of Change and Predictors of Treatment Response To explore the underlying psychological mechanisms through which Natural Psychotherapy produces its therapeutic effects on primary outcomes (anxiety and rumination) and to identify baseline predictors and moderators of treatment response.

This is a widely used, valid, and reliable tool for screening and monitoring anxiety in adolescents. Time points of measurements: (1) Assessment at Week 1 (Pre-intervention, Baseline); (2) Week 5( immediately Post-intervention, after the 4-week intervention period); (3) Week 9 (1-month follow-up); (4) Week 17 (3-month follow-up); (5) Week 29: 6-month follow-up. |
