The introductory chapter provides an overview of the research topic, background information, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, and structure of the thesis. The literature review chapter critically examines existing research on mindfulness-based interventions, stress, anxiety, and their implications for college students. The methodology chapter outlines the research design, participants, data collection methods, data analysis techniques, ethical considerations, and limitations of the study. Findings from the study are presented and discussed in detail in the results and discussion chapter. The analysis explores the effects of mindfulness-based interventions on stress and anxiety levels among college students, comparing different intervention approaches and their outcomes. The conclusion chapter summarizes the key findings, implications of the study, limitations, and recommendations for future research and practical applications. Overall, this thesis contributes to the growing body of research on mindfulness-based interventions and their potential in reducing stress and anxiety levels among college students. The findings of this study have implications for mental health professionals, educators, and policymakers seeking effective strategies to support college students in managing stress and anxiety, ultimately promoting their overall well-being and academic success.
