Summary

This study tested whether a program called MindUP could help lower depression, anxiety, and stress in orphan teenagers in Pakistan. 61 boys aged 11-16 living in orphanages took part. Some did the MindUP program, which teaches mindfulness and emotional skills, while others did their usual activities. The study measured changes in their mental health using standard questionnaires.
