Less Stress Compassion

Exercices de compassion pour aider à réduire les niveaux de stress au jour le jour.

This app is part an ongoing West Virginia University study to test whether on-the-go compassion exercises can help people deal with the stress in their lives. The app is specifically targeted at participants in the research study and will have little utility for others.

Study participants can use the app to play both video and audio files which contain guided relaxation exercises of varying lengths. Specific files may also be selected as favorites, for easy access later. Participants in the study will be asked to complete surveys about their experiences before and after using the app. Encrypted data from these surveys will be sent study’s principle investigator for review. Only study participants will have access to the survey portion of the app, which is confidential. All information sent during the study will also be held strictly confidential and only the primary investigator will be able to link participant names with survey data.
