Abstract
Purpose: The current study aimed to preliminarily examine the effectiveness and acceptability of a combined exercise + mindfulness intervention on depressive symptoms among healthy Chinese university students (study 1) and those with subthreshold depression (study 2). Methods: Two 2 (intervention group vs. control group) × 2 (pretest vs. posttest) randomized controlled trials were conducted in healthy students without subthreshold depression and students with subthreshold depression, respectively. Description analysis, linear mixed-effects models, and qualitative analysis were used in both studies. Results: Results of both studies showed that the combined intervention was acceptable and effective in preventing and reducing depressive symptoms, with small effect sizes for healthy students ( d = −0.47) and large effect sizes for subthreshold depression students ( d = −1.51), respectively. Conclusions: The aerobic exercise plus mindfulness intervention was evidenced to be a preventive and therapeutic measure of depressive symptoms among university students.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
