Summary

This study tests whether a four-week mindfulness program can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress in college students in Guangzhou, China. Participants are randomly assigned to either the mindfulness training or a health education control group. The study also looks at whether changes in mindfulness, emotion regulation, and psychological resilience help explain the program's effects. Questionnaires are used to measure outcomes before, after, and at follow-up.
