Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Action In Mindfulness (AIM)+
Participants randomized to the intervention arm will receive the AIM+ mindfulness meditation app.
Action In Mindfulness (AIM)+
AIM+ is a smartphone-based app that teaches mindfulness meditation to professionals working with legal-involved youth over a 30-day "path." Each day of the path consists of a brief (approximately 5- to 10-minute) audio-guided meditation practice, with brief videos interspersed to illustrate key concepts and promote engagement. In addition to the 30 daily path files, users have access to a menu of "to go" audio-guided meditation practices that they can use as relevant to their workday (e.g., for professionals to listen to before attending a meeting). AIM+ also includes a menu of audio-guided meditation practices that officers can share with the youth on their caseloads (e.g., for youth to listen to before attending court).
Resource+
Participants randomized to the active control arm will receive the Resource+ informational resource app.
Resource+
Resource+ is a smartphone-based app that is matched to AIM+ for time and structure, but it includes information on community resources that professionals can provide to the youth with whom they work in place of the meditation content featured in AIM+.
