To assess the feasibility of a brief, self-guided, Internet-based version of the mantram repetition program (MRP) for undergraduate students, a population with mental health challenges and high reliance on Internet-based resources.
Undergraduate students (n = 60) receiving course credit had a mean age of 20.66 years and primarily identified as female (84.5%) and Asian (55.9%).
MRP was taught through four video modules. Participants completed module 1 at timepoint 1 (T1), modules 2-4 one week later (T2), and questions about their practice one week following (T3).
Most (88.3%) participants completed all four video modules and 76.7% completed T3 questions. At T3, 80.4% of participants endorsed using mantram repetition, practicing 4.46 days/week and 3.26 times/day on average.
A self-guided, Internet-delivered MRP is feasible for undergraduate students. Further research is needed to establish its utility for managing psychological challenges in college students.
评估曼特拉重复方案(MRP)的简短、自我引导、基于互联网的版本对有心理健康挑战和高度依赖互联网资源的大学生群体的可行性。
获得课程学分的本科生(n=60)的平均年龄为 20.66 岁,主要为女性(84.5%)和亚洲人(55.9%)。
MRP 通过四个视频模块进行教学。参与者在时间点 1(T1)完成模块 1,一周后(T2)完成模块 2-4,一周后(T3)完成关于他们实践的问题。
大多数(88.3%)参与者完成了所有四个视频模块,76.7%完成了 T3 问题。在 T3 时,80.4%的参与者表示使用了曼特拉重复,平均每周练习 4.46 天,每天 3.26 次。
自我引导、互联网提供的 MRP 对大学生是可行的。需要进一步的研究来确定其在管理大学生心理挑战方面的效用。
