Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   1) Primary screening of participants  will be done by using Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) and eligibility will be assessed by Inclusion criteria.
2) Prakriti analysis of participants will be done using Brief Prakriti Inventory software.
3) Participants will be divided into 3 groups based on their prakriti-: Group A (Vata prakriti predominant, n=60); Group B (Pitta prakriti predominant, n=60) and Group C (Kapha prakriti predominant, n=60).
4) Application of following Cognitive Functions tests on participants using PEBL (Psychology Experiment Building Language) software and RED Cap software:

   1.  Digits Forward and Backward subtests:- for Attention and Verbal Working Memory.

   2.  Spatial Span Test (Corsi Block Test):- for Visual Working Memory.

   3.  Trail Making Test (TMT) part A & B:- for Processing speed and Set Shifting.

   4.  Stop Signal Task:- for Inhibitory Control (Response inhibition).

   5.  Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT):- for New Learning and Recall (Auditory verbal).

   6.  Rey Osterrieth Complex Figure (ROCF)Test:- for New Learning and Recall (Visual).

Based on the scores of these tests, different parameters used in these tests will be analysed to find any association between Prakriti and Cognitive Functions, through Statistical software/SPSS.
