A Mixed Methods Investigation of Brief Mindfulness Training and Self-injury Attentional Bias Among Self-injuring Adolescents
My study will employ a convergent mixed methods two-arm parallel randomized controlled
design. The qualitative strand will primarily rely on semi-structured interview procedures to
answer the following questions: (1) How do adolescents perceive and experience the phenomenon
of nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI)? (2) What do adolescents believe needs to be done to
address NSSI? The quantitative strand will primarily rely on clinical interview data,
self-report measures, and an experimental task protocol to answer the following question:
What is the impact of a brief mindfulness induction (versus a control condition) on
self-injury attentional bias among self-injuring adolescents?
