Mindfulness-based Program for Adolescents

患有胎儿酒精谱系障碍(FASD)的青少年面临药物使用的风险，缺乏针对FASD青少年的循证药物滥用预防计划。因此，拟议的项目将为患有FASD的青少年创建和评估一个创新的基于正念的在线药物滥用预防计划的技术可行性。基于网络的计划将包括正念活动(例如正念运动和旅行)，以及互动决策活动和日记。主要前提是，通过训练青少年的正念，这些新技能反过来应该对他们的执行功能和行为调节产生积极影响，并减少他们使用物质的意图。最终产品将包括四门基于网络的课程(即正念基础)，在第一阶段，将开发第一门课程(身体意识)。为了确定技术可行性，青少年将参加焦点小组和访谈，以提供对该计划的反馈，并在这些评估活动之后进行修订。

Adolescents with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) are at risk for substance use, and there is a dearth of evidence-based substance abuse prevention programs for adolescents with FASD. Therefore, the proposed project will create and evaluate the technical feasibility of an innovative online mindfulness-based substance abuse prevention program for adolescents with FASD. The web-based program will include mindfulness activities (e.g. mindful movements and journeys), as well as interactive decision-making activities and journaling. The main premise is that by training adolescents in mindfulness, these new skills should, in turn, positively influence their executive functioning and behavior regulation, and reduce their intention to use substances. The final product will consist of four web-based courses (i.e. foundations of mindfulness) and in phase I, the first course (Awareness of the Body) will be developed. To establish technical feasibility, adolescents will participate in a focus group and interviews to provide feedback on the program and revisions will follow these evaluation activities.
