Effect of the Reassured Self-Compassion–Based School Program on Anxiety, Video Game Addiction, and Body Image Among Rural Female Adolescents: Retrospective Study

Effect of the Reassured Self-Compassion–Based School Program on Anxiety, Video Game Addiction, and Body Image Among Rural Female Adolescents: Retrospective Study

Also, our search failed to identify any mental health school program among Saudi adolescents. Additionally, there is a notable gap in research on the use of self-compassion interventions in populations outside of Western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic countries [13]. In Saudi Arabia, specifically, no reports were found on community- or school-based programs for female adolescents using any mental health intervention methods [10,12-16].

Generative Artificial Intelligence in Medical Education—Policies and Training at US Osteopathic Medical Schools: Descriptive Cross-Sectional Survey

In addition to the trainee level, medical school policy makers and educators must consider the systems in which future physicians will work. Physicians should be part of a team with diverse backgrounds and professional training to be most effective. With further AI development, these teams will include AI-powered computer assistants. The team must know how to interact effectively and appropriately with this new “team member,” including how it affects the patients and families they care for.

Body Fat and Obesity Rates, Cardiovascular Fitness, and the Feasibility of a Low-Intensity Non–Weight-Centric Educational Intervention Among Late Adolescents: Quasi-Experimental Study

Body Fat and Obesity Rates, Cardiovascular Fitness, and the Feasibility of a Low-Intensity Non–Weight-Centric Educational Intervention Among Late Adolescents: Quasi-Experimental Study

Despite the alarming trends, evidence-based interventions targeting adolescents in Saudi Arabia, particularly late adolescents in school settings, remain limited [12,13]. Schools provide an ideal environment for implementing cost-effective and sustainable obesity interventions, especially when these programs are theory-driven and tailored to meet the specific needs of the target population [14].

Text Messaging to Extend School-Based Suicide Prevention: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Text Messaging to Extend School-Based Suicide Prevention: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

However, a key challenge for school-based universal prevention programs remains—reaching a large and diverse array of students, especially those who are less engaged with school. The potential for disruptions to typical school schedules, large and small, also highlights the need for more flexible ways to reach students who do not rely on in-school contact alone.
