Summary

This study tested a small breathing device called AIRpen to see if it helps college students manage stress during exams. 73 students used the device for two weeks and reported on its usability and how it affected their well-being. The goal was to find out if this tool is practical and helpful for stress relief in a real-world academic setting.
