Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The mindfulness intervention group will engage in daily mindfulness exercises focusing on deep breathing, body scanning, emotional awareness, and behavior regulation for 10-15 minutes per day. The exercises are structured to build emotional awareness, manage impulses, and foster long-term emotional resilience. The program progresses through foundational mindfulness techniques, emotional acceptance, behavior modulation, and integrating mindfulness into daily life. Parents will actively participate by supervising and supporting their children's practice and recording their progress.
The psychosocial education control group will receive daily educational content designed to enhance emotional regulation and coping strategies. This content will be delivered via text and audio messages and will focus on improving emotional awareness, creating supportive home environments, and building healthy lifestyle habits. Parents will play a key role in implementing and supporting these strategies at home.
Baseline and follow-up assessments will be conducted to evaluate the intervention's effects on psychological health and family dynamics. Key measures include the frequency and severity of BFRBs as well as psychological health scales such as SCARED, CDI, OCI-CV ,s-EMBU-C and PHCSS. Parental mental health and family dynamics will also be assessed using validated tools, including the Conners Parent Rating Scale, SNAP-IV, PSI, and FAD. Assessments will be conducted at baseline (T0), immediately after the intervention (T1), and at a three-month follow-up (T2). Data analysis will focus on pre- and post-intervention comparisons to evaluate the mindfulness program's effectiveness in reducing BFRBs and improving emotional and family outcomes. Participants will be recruited from dermatology and psychiatric outpatient clinics at Children's Hospital of Fudan University . Recruitment will target children who have exhibited significant BFRBs within the last month, with informed consent obtained from their guardians.

Mindfulness intervention Group
This group will receive a 30-day mindfulness intervention aimed at reducing Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) in children. The intervention includes daily mindfulness meditation exercises, such as deep breathing, body scans, and emotion awareness training, delivered via JD Health's platform. The children are encouraged to practice the exercises at home, with their parents providing support. The intervention is designed to improve emotional regulation, impulse control, and self-awareness in the participants. Assessments of behavioral and psychological outcomes will be collected at baseline, after one month, and at three months.
