Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to conduct a trial of the tailored Mindfulness- Based Intervention (MBI) (.b) vs. attention control to test real-world feasibility and acceptability of this tailored Mindfulness - Based Intervention (MBI) in youth experiencing homelessness (YEH).

Interventions

BEHAVIORALtailored MBI (.b)

The session will include brief didactic presentations, videos, and mindfulness practice followed by inquiry. We anticipate that sessions will take place twice a week. Sessions will be held on site at the Covenant House Texas (CHT) shelter in a quiet, designated learning space to ease access to sessions for the participants and to assure access to shelter staff (e.g., social workers and case managers) and services (e.g., food and shelter). CHT has onsite, weekday clinical and mental health care and established protocols for accessing needed resources 24/7. Selection criteria for the interventionist include maintaining a personal mindfulness practice for at least two years, trained in .b, and prior experience working with high-risk youth. The interventionist will receive additional training in Trauma-Informed Care as well as study procedures.

Participants will receive no training in MBI or meditation. Topics covered may include physical activity, nutrition, managing weight, understanding adolescence, personal care, avoiding tobacco, alcohol, and drugs though this will be finalized in YR-1 with the HYWG and advisory panel. The HT program will be led by a positive adult instructor with training in health education or a related field and experience working with YEH.

Risk Seeking as Measured by Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART)

The Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART) is a computerized measure of risk taking behavior. Each click causes the balloon to incrementally inflate and money to be added to a counter up until some threshold, at which point the balloon is over inflated and explodes. The primary score used to measure BART performance is the adjusted average number of pumps on unexploded balloons, with higher scores indicative of greater risk-taking propensity

Time frame: Baseline, immediately after intervention (about 2-4 weeks after baseline),3 months post intervention,6 months post intervention

Population: Data were not collected for this outcome measure because the Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART) was not administered to participants. Instead, the Risk Propensity Scale was used to assess Risk Seeking. As a result, no participants received the Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART), and no data were collected for this outcome measure. Therefore, zero participants were analyzed for this outcome. Data from the Risk Propensity Scale are reported under a different outcome measure.
