The problem
Intervention: School-based group counseling program incorporating social-emotional learning curricula and mindfulness techniques to increase resilience and self-regulatory abilities
Who it was tested with: 62 children aged 12-15 (M = 12.71, SD = 0.868) in Romania.
Children or communities are compared with a group that did not receive the intervention, or followed over years. This is the design that best separates what the intervention did from everything else that changed.
"Using a sample of 62 children, aged 12-15 (M = 12.71, SD = .868), we conducted a quasi-randomized trial with a control and an intervention group to investigate the efficacy of the program." This design includes a control group and random assignment, meeting experimental criteria, though quasi-randomization is less rigorous than full randomization.
Quasi-randomized design rather than fully randomized; no information on program duration, follow-up period, or effect sizes; relies on both child self-report and teacher reports which may differ
