Summary
This study tests a 6-session group therapy program that teaches emotion regulation skills to help Mexican adults cope with eco-anxiety and eating-related eco-concerns. 80 participants will be randomly assigned to the therapy or a control group, and researchers will measure changes in anxiety and eating concerns right after the program and again 4 months later. The goal is to see if learning to manage emotions can reduce climate-related distress and its impact on eating habits.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Emotion regulation group therapy (6 weekly 90-minute sessions led by a psychologist)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a simple, non-drug coping strategy for people distressed by climate change and related eating concerns.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (80 people) with no blinding, so results may not be generalizable. The intervention is brief and effects may not last beyond 4 months.
