This study investigates the efficacy of Gibberish Meditation Technique in alleviating behavioral problems among adolescents. The research utilized a pre and post-design based on a survey method involving 185 participants aged 13 to 18 years from various schools in Aligarh district, India. Behavioral Problem Questionnaires were administered to identify high levels of behavioral problems among the participants, and Gibberish Meditation Technique was applied to those identified. Descriptive statistics revealed higher mean scores for attention and externalizing behavior problems compared to internalizing behavior problems. Paired-sample t-tests were conducted to analyze the effectiveness of the intervention. Results indicated significant reductions in attention, internalizing, and externalizing behavioral problems following Gibberish Meditation Technique intervention. These findings align with previous research suggesting the efficacy of meditation techniques in reducing stress and improving behavior among adolescents. Overall, the study underscores the potential of Gibberish Meditation Technique as an intervention for alleviating behavioral problems in adolescent populations.
