o Stabilization model (Dialectical Behavior Therapy)

4. Evaluation
• Method: self-report, computerized games which assessed
behavior, and physiological measurement
• Participants: 53 (male and female)
• Ages: 12-19 (serve ages 12-22)
• Population: League and Chalk Talk participants compared to
control group.
o Victims of abuse and/or neglect
o Sexually exploited and trafficked
o Impoverished/underserved
o Truant
o Mentally ill (specifically survivors of complex trauma)
o Differently-abled
5. Alarming Descriptors
• Social Cognition - “Reading the Mind in the Eyes Task.”
o Healthy youth 70%.
o Adults on the autistic spectrum 50%.
o Doc Wayne youth 37% of faces (SD = 15%, Range = 0 to 75%).
• Physiology and Stress
o Average resting heart rate for youth in this age group is 60-80 beats per
minute (bpm).
o The majority of youth (65%) had elevated resting heart rates, above 80
bpm (M = 85, SD = 15).
o Five participants had extremely elevated resting HR, over 100 bpm.
o May be reflective of psychological stress, poor cardiovascular
health, or medication status.

• Category A: Outcomes which change quickly, and continue to
develop over time.
• Shutting Down
• Personal Distress
• Social Cognition
• Heart Rate Variability
• Category B: Outcomes which happen quickly, and “top out”
with continued participation.
• Reappraisal
• Perspective-taking
• Heart Rate
• Category C: Outcomes which take time to emerge.
• Seeking Support
• Career Goals
9. Conclusion
• Effect sizes are consistent with the effect sizes of individual
psychotherapies tested using Randomized Clinical Trials.
o Effect size – the size of the difference between two groups.
Is the magnitude of the differences between two groups
clinically meaningful?
o Most psychotherapy studies yield an effect size of .3.
• Sport can be therapeutic and a form of therapy.

Hinweis der Redaktion
Consistent with the literature suggests that physical health supports emotional and cognitive health, we measured resting heart rate and a physiological index of flexible stress response called Heart Rate Variability (HRV). Resting heart rate is also a reliable index of emotional stress.
