Mindfulness-Based Intervention for Nursing Students in Somalia

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Stress, Psychological Resilience, Self Efficacy

In brief

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a mindfulness-based intervention on stress levels, psychological resilience, and academic self-efficacy among nursing students in Somalia. Nursing students often experience high levels of stress due to academic demands, clinical training, and challenging social and environmental conditions. Mindfulness-based interventions have been shown to improve mental well-being and coping skills in various student populations, but evidence from low-resource and conflict-affected settings remains limited. In this randomized controlled trial, nursing students will be assigned either to a mindfulness-based intervention group or to a control group receiving no intervention during the study period. The intervention consists of structured mindfulness sessions focusing on breathing awareness, body awareness, emotional regulation, and present-moment attention over a three-week period. Outcomes including perceived stress, psychological resilience, and academic self-efficacy will be measured before and after the intervention using validated self-report instruments. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to the understanding of non-pharmacological, low-cost mental health interventions for nursing students in low-resource settings.
