| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcome variable in this study is Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), which is measured to assess the effect of the 8-session Mindfulness Counseling intervention. Operationally, this variable is defined by the total scores obtained by participants across ten distinct domains of the kidscreen_52 questionnaire. These ten domains, which function as the specific primary outcome measures, include: Physical Health, Psychological Health, Feelings and Mood, Self-Perception, Autonomy, Parental Relationships and Family Life, Social Support and Peers, School Environment, Social Acceptance, and Financial Resources. The intervention’s effect will be determined by comparing the scores across these domains at the pre-test, post-test, and one-month follow-up assessment points. Timepoint: The time points for measuring the primary outcome (HRQoL) are precisely:Before the intervention (Baseline), immediately after the completion of the intervention, and one month after the completion of the intervention. Method of measurement: The standardized Kidscreen-52 Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire. | — |
