本研究旨在探讨武术课程“英雄圈”对国小学童压力、情绪及行为问题的影响。虽然学生在基线时完成了课堂调查，但在与COVID-19相关的学校关闭后两个月和五个月，从教师、学生和家长/监护人那里收集了课程后调查。接受干预的人对课程的满意度很高。孩子们报告说，在学年中，他们的正念增加，压力减少。大多数儿童（77%）仍在使用该计划的技术，并在五个月后报告了好处，包括较低的内化症状和与COVID-19相关的恐惧。在对照学校没有观察到这些模式。本研究旨在探讨武术课程-英雄圈-对小学生压力、情绪和行为问题的影响。Heroes Circle的参与者报告说，在学年中，正念增加，感知压力减少。大多数儿童仍然在使用该计划的技术和报告的好处（例如，降低焦虑/抑郁，降低与COVID-19相关的恐惧），直至COVID-19相关的学校关闭后五个月。武术可能是改善儿童福祉的一种有前途的方法。
This exploratory study examined the impact of Heroes Circle, a martial arts-based curriculum on stress, emotional, and behavioral problems in elementary school children. While students completed classroom surveys at baseline, post-curriculum surveys were collected from teachers, students, and parents/guardians two and five months after COVID-19-related school shutdowns. Satisfaction with the curriculum was high among those who received the intervention. Children reported increased mindfulness and decreased stress over the school year. Most children (77%) were still using the program’s techniques and reporting benefits five months later, including lower internalizing symptoms and COVID-19-related fears. These patterns were not observed at the control school. This exploratory study examined the impact of a martial arts-based curriculum – the Heroes Circle – on stress, emotional and behavioral problems in elementary schoolchildren. Heroes Circle participants reported increased mindfulness and decreased perceived stress over the academic year. Most children were still using the program’s techniques and reporting benefits (e.g., lower anxiety/depression, lower COVID-19-related fears) up to five months after COVID-19-related school shutdowns. Martial arts may be a promising approach for improving child well-being.
