Mindfulness for Sexual Assault Survivors

This study is testing a mindfulness-based intervention to see if it can help young adult sexual assault survivors reduce alcohol misuse and tobacco use. Researchers want to know if this intervention is practical to use and if people find it helpful. You might be able to join if you are a full-time undergraduate at GSU, 18-24 years old, have experienced sexual violence, and have used alcohol recently. The study will compare the mindfulness intervention to online resources about healthy eating. The main goals are to see if the mindfulness intervention can be successfully implemented and is acceptable to participants, and if it helps reduce alcohol and tobacco use. This study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.

Study design
This is a pilot randomized trial planning to enroll 120 participants. It compares a mindfulness-based intervention to a comparison intervention of online resources.
What's involved
You would take online surveys at the start, 1 month, and 3 months later. You would also answer text-message questions and engage in an educational program.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for 3 months after the intervention, with surveys at 1 month and 3 months.
