Use of mind–body therapies among young adults aged 18–24 years: Findings From the 2012 National Health Interview Survey
Journal of Adolescent Health Jul 05, 2018
Upchurch DM, et al. - The prevalence, patterns, and satisfaction of use of mind–body therapies (MBTs) in a nationally representative sample of young adults (ages 18–24 years) were investigated in this analysis. Researchers analyzed young adults interviewed in the 2012 National Health Interview Survey. For the purpose of this investigation, design-based F tests and logistic regression were used. Findings suggested that young adulthood was a critical period in the life course when people were establishing lifestyle and health behaviors that could be enduring. Many MBTs could be helpful with the management of stress and anxiety, the young adult might be underutilizing these modalities. Among young adults, public health and educational strategies for greater engagement in MBT were warranted.
