Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07857980). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Chinese University of Hong Kong. Recruitment status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 360 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Psychological Well-being, Gratitude, Hope, Spirituality, Stress, Anxiety, Depression. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Examen Meditation. Primary outcome measures: Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scales-21 (DASS 21-Y) , Pre-intervention (week 0) and post-intervention (end of 6 months); The Gratitude Questionnaire - Six Item Form (GQ-6) , Pre-intervention (week 0) and post-intervention (end of 6 months); The Children's Hope Scale (CHS) , Pre-intervention (week 0) and post-intervention (end of 6 months); Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS) , Pre-intervention (week 0) and post-intervention (end of 6 months). Brief summary: This study aims to investigate the effects of Ignatian Examen Meditation on students' psychological well-being, gratitude, hope, and spirituality. Specifically, it examines whether participation in Examen Meditation improves emotional well-being by reducing stress, anxiety, and depression, enhancing students' sense of gratitude and hope, and strengthening spiritual development. The study also explores the lived experiences of students and teachers who participate in the programme. Regarding significance, this study addresses the lack of empirical studies examining Examen Meditation in Asian educational settings. The findings will provide evidence regarding the effectiveness of a Catholic contemplative practice in supporting students' mental health and spiritual formation. It may contribute to the development of school-based well-being programmes in Catholic schools by demonstrating the potential benefits of Examen Meditation for psychological well-being, the sense of gratitude and hope and spiritual growth.
