Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have gained increasing attention in the field of mental health and well-being promotion among university students. This thesis explores the role of MBIs in enhancing mental health and well-being among university students through a randomized controlled trial study. The study aims to investigate the effectiveness of MBIs in improving mental health outcomes, such as stress reduction, anxiety management, and overall well-being among university students. The research methodology involves a randomized controlled trial design, with participants randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving MBIs or a control group. The literature review provides a comprehensive overview of existing research on mindfulness-based interventions and their impact on mental health and well-being outcomes among university students. The review highlights the theoretical frameworks and empirical evidence supporting the effectiveness of MBIs in promoting mental health and well-being. Key themes explored in the literature review include the benefits of mindfulness practices, mechanisms of action, and factors influencing intervention outcomes. The research methodology section outlines the study design, participant recruitment, data collection methods, intervention protocol, and data analysis plan. The study will involve university students from diverse academic disciplines, with measures of mental health and well-being assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and follow-up time points. Qualitative and quantitative data analysis techniques will be used to examine the effectiveness of MBIs in enhancing mental health outcomes among university students. The findings from the randomized controlled trial study will be discussed in detail in the results section, highlighting the impact of MBIs on stress reduction, anxiety management, and overall well-being among university students. The discussion will explore the implications of the findings for theory, research, and practice in the field of guidance and counseling, emphasizing the potential of MBIs as a valuable intervention for promoting mental health and well-being among university students. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to the growing body of research on mindfulness-based interventions and their role in enhancing mental health and well-being among university students. The study findings have the potential to inform future research and practice in the field of guidance and counseling, offering valuable insights into the effectiveness of MBIs as a means of supporting the mental health needs of university students.
