A teacher-led classroom intervention in an area of Mexico experiencing community violence: A controlled mixed-method feasibility study

Preliminary evidence gained in this study suggests that a teacher-led ten-minute group thought field therapy exercise might assist adolescents' learning in reading and math. However, in an area experiencing ongoing interpersonal and community violence, a more multicomponent approach with longer periods of intervention, caretaker involvement and individual therapy for those who might benefit from it, may be needed.
