To analyze the effectiveness of a mindfulness intervention for adults with anxiety, you can consider using the following statistical methods:



Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance (ANOVA): If you have multiple time points (e.g., pre-intervention, post-intervention, follow-up), a repeated measures ANOVA can assess changes in anxiety scores over time within the intervention group.

Independent Samples t-test or Mann-Whitney U test: Use these tests to compare post-intervention anxiety scores between the intervention and control groups, providing insights into the effectiveness of the mindfulness intervention.

Effect sizes: Calculate effect sizes (e.g., Cohen’s d) to determine the magnitude of the intervention’s impact on anxiety levels. This helps interpret the practical significance of the findings.



The specific statistical methods used may depend on the study design, data characteristics, and research questions. It’s advisable to consult with a statistician or data analyst to determine the most appropriate statistical analyses for your specific study.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
