ClinicalTrials.gov Studies
Summary
NIH registered a clinical trial (NCT07534566) evaluating a laughter yoga-supported education program based on the PRECEDE-PROCEED Model to reduce peer bullying among adolescents. The study targets middle school students and examines effects on awareness of peer bullying and psychosocial well-being. The trial involves health education and laughter yoga interventions as comparators.
What changed
NIH registered a new clinical trial (NCT07534566) titled 'Evaluation of the Effect of a PRECEDE-PROCEED Model-Based Laughter Yoga-Supported Education Program on Peer Bullying.' The trial examines whether a laughter yoga-supported education program can reduce peer bullying and improve psychosocial outcomes among adolescent students. The study uses the PRECEDE-PROCEED Model to address predisposing, enabling, and reinforcing factors influencing bullying behavior.
For compliance professionals and researchers, this represents a research registration rather than a regulatory requirement. The trial targets adolescents in educational settings with interventions including health education and laughter yoga. Organizations involved in school health programs or bullying prevention initiatives may find the trial results informative for future program design, though this registration does not create compliance obligations.

Adolescence is a critical developmental period marked by rapid cognitive, emotional, and social changes that shape personality and psychosocial functioning. During this stage, peer relationships play a central role in adolescents' mental well-being, academic performance, and social adjustment.

Recent evidence indicates a rising prevalence of peer bullying, particularly among middle school students, highlighting the need for effective school-based interventions. Previous programs have demonstrated reductions in bullying behaviors and improvements in school adjustment and self-confidence, yet meta-analytic findings suggest that existing educational interventions have limited effectiveness, underscoring the need for innovative and theory-driven approaches.
The PRECEDE-PROCEED Model offers a comprehensive framework for designing sustainable health promotion interventions by addressing predisposing, enabling, and reinforcing factors influencing behavior. In this context, a laughter yoga-supported education program grounded in this model aims to increase adolescents' awareness of peer bullying, enhance physiological, psychological, and social well-being, strengthen social interact...
