NCT ID NCT07372469
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 29, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looked at whether a type of group therapy called psychodrama can help nursing students feel better mentally. 55 students were split into two groups: one did weekly psychodrama sessions for 12 weeks, and the other prepared group talks on similar topics. Researchers measured their mental health before and after using a questionnaire. The goal was to see if acting out scenarios could promote mental well-being.
