Summary

This study explores the effectiveness of AI-guided breathing practices for stress management in adults. In this randomized controlled trial, 120 participants will be recruited and assigned to an intervention group (n=90) or a control group (n=30). The study includes four brief breathing practices, guided by a wristband. The intervention group will interact with an AI chatbot to receive a personalized daily breathing plan for 28 days, adjusted weekly based on feedback. Meanwhile, the control group will practice progressive muscle relaxation daily. It is hypothesized that, the intervention group will have significantly improvements in stress management and emotion regulation skills compare to the control group. These group differences are expected to persist at 1-month, 3-month and 6-month follow-up assessment.

Conditions

  • Stress Reduction

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

AI-guided breathing practices

Participant will obtain a wristband with a built-in breathing practices program when assigned to the intervention group. Four kinds of breathing practices are included, which are bee breathing, diaphragmatic breathing, box breathing and 4-7-8 breathing. A specially prompted AI chat bot interviews the participant and designs a personalized daily breathing practice plan according to participant's preference and daily stress. Participant follows the plan in the following 28-day intervention period. Plan is adjusted weekly based on participant's feedback.

BEHAVIORAL

Progressive muscle relaxation

Participant practices progressive muscle relaxation for 5 minutes daily.
