Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis explores the impact of mindfulness-based interventions on stress management among university students through a comparative study. Stress is a prevalent issue among university students worldwide, affecting their mental health, academic performance, and overall well-being. Mindfulness-based interventions have gained recognition as effective approaches to reduce stress and enhance mental well-being. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of different mindfulness-based interventions in managing stress among university students. The research methodology employed in this study includes a quantitative approach involving surveys and questionnaires distributed to university students participating in mindfulness-based interventions. A comparative analysis will be conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of various mindfulness interventions, such as mindfulness meditation, yoga, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, in reducing stress levels among students. The study will also consider factors such as frequency of practice, duration of intervention, and individual preferences to determine the most beneficial approach for stress management. The findings of this study are expected to provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions in stress management among university students. By comparing different intervention methods, this research aims to identify the most suitable approach for addressing stress-related issues in the university setting. The implications of the study may contribute to the development of targeted interventions and support programs for promoting mental well-being among university students. Overall, this thesis seeks to address the pressing issue of stress management among university students by investigating the impact of mindfulness-based interventions. The comparative study design allows for a comprehensive analysis of different intervention methods, shedding light on their respective benefits and limitations. Through this research, valuable recommendations can be made to enhance stress management strategies and promote mental well-being among university students.
