Resilience and Well-Being in the Caribbean: Findings from a Randomized Controlled Trial of a Culturally Adapted Multi-Component Positive Psychology Intervention
Open accessAbstract
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of a culturally adapted multi-component positive psychology intervention (MPPI) on resilience. We conducted a randomized controlled trial among 158 employees of multi-ethnic origin in Paramaribo, Suriname. The participants were assigned to a 6-session intervention program or a wait-list control group. Data were collected at baseline, post-intervention, and at 3-months follow-up. Strict guidelines were followed to minimize risk of bias and to assure a high methodological quality. Analysis of covariance revealed large significant improvements on resilience, mental well-being, and negative affect, moderate improvements on depression and positive affect, and small improvements on anxiety compared to control. The intervention was not more beneficial on stress, financial distress, and psychological flexibility than control. In conclusion, a culturally adapted MPPI may be a promising intervention to increase resilience and well-being among healthy adults with a multi-ethnic background in the Caribbean.

Participants entered the study at baseline with fairly high level of psychological flexibility, and this might create a floor effect, which reduces the chances of improvement.
“Participants entered the study at T1 phase (baseline) with fairly high level of psychological flexibility [61,62], and this might create a “floor effect”, which reduces the chances of improvement.”
From Inquiry based stress reduction (Ibsr) improves overall stuttering experience among adults who stutter: A randomized controlled trial (2021) · cites this paper as [62]
The paper’s psychological-flexibility table (p. 19) reports baseline means of 3.92 and 4.03 on a six-point scale, and the Results (p. 20) find no significant improvement. These findings concern the paper’s own participants; the copy does not say that high baseline flexibility caused a floor effect or reduced the chance of improvement. (LLM, conf=0.79)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
