A graduate student studying public health at Brown School, Washington University in St. Louis, Oreoluwa Oginni, has shed light on the transformative impact of Cognitive-Behavioural Interventions (CBI) on students’ mental health.
With a focus on alleviating depression and anxiety, CBIs have emerged as a powerful tool for enhancing academic performance and improving the overall learning experience.
In the realm of mathematics education, where the subject often triggers anxiety and symptoms of depression among students, the implementation of CBI techniques offers a ray of hope.
Oginni’s research illuminates the profound influence of CBIs on students’ cognitive restructuring, emotional regulation, and academic performance, highlighting their significance in promoting student success.
By incorporating practical strategies such as deep breathing exercises, positive self-talk, and goal-setting techniques, CBIs equip students with the necessary tools to navigate challenges with confidence.
These interventions not only reduce stress levels but also foster a growth mindset, encouraging students to view challenges as opportunities for growth rather than obstacles.
Moreover, relaxation techniques, including deep breathing and mindfulness, play a pivotal role in countering the physical manifestations of anxiety and depression.
Behavioural exposure to anxiety-inducing situations enhances problem-solving skills and diminishes fear, further contributing to students’ well-being and academic success.
Oginni emphasises the importance of systematically addressing cognitive distortions and negative self-perceptions related to mathematics.
By fostering a shift towards a growth-oriented mindset, CBIs promote motivation, resilience, and improved problem-solving skills among students.
As educators and stakeholders strive to support students’ mental health and well-being, he pointed out that CBIs will offer a valuable tool in promoting a holistic approach to education.
He noted that the integration of CBIs in mathematics education holds promise for enhancing students’ learning experiences and academic performance.
