Mindfulness-Based Interventions for University Students: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomised Controlled Trials.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials examined mindfulness-based interventions for university students. The analysis indicates that these interventions produce small to moderate improvements in mental health outcomes, including reductions in stress, anxiety, and depression, compared to control conditions. The authors suggest that mindfulness-based interventions are a promising approach for supporting student well-being, though they note variability in intervention formats and outcome measures across studies. The review underscores the need for further high-quality research to establish optimal intervention components and delivery methods.
