超過三分之一的大學生報告了減壓技術和教育的願望。這項研究的目的是確定一個為期 20 週的結 構性自我靈氣項目對減輕大學生壓力和放鬆的影響。 

METHODS: (方法) Students were recruited from Stockton University and sessions were conducted in the privacy of their residence. Twenty students completed the entire study consisting of 20 weeks of self-Reiki done twice weekly. Each participant completed a Reiki Baseline Credibility Scale, a Reiki Expectancy Scale, and a Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) after acceptance into the study. The PSS was completed every four weeks once the interventions were initiated. A global assessment questionnaire was completed at the end of the study. Logs summarizing the outcome of each session were submitted at the end of the study. 

學生從斯托克頓大學招聘，會議在他們的住所私下進行。 20 名學生完成了整個研究，包括 20 週 的自我靈氣每週兩次。參與者在接受研究後完成了 Reiki 基線可信度量表，Reiki 期望量表和 PSS 感知量表。一旦干預開始，PSS 每四周完成一次。研究結束時完成了全球評估調查問卷。總結每次 會議結果的日誌在研究結束時提交。 

RESULTS: (結果) With the exception of three participants, participants believed that Reiki is a credible technique for reducing stress levels. Except for two participants, participants agreed that Reiki would be effective in reducing stress levels. All participants experienced stress within the month prior to completing the initial PSS. There was a significant reduction in stress levels from pre-study to post-study. There was a correlation between self-rating of improvement and final PSS scores. With one exception, stress levels at 20 weeks did not return to pre-study stress levels. 

除三名參與者外，與會者認為靈氣是一種可靠的降低壓力水平的技術。除了兩位參與者之外，與會 者同意靈氣會有效地減少壓力水平。所有參與者在完成初始 PSS 之前的一個月內都經歷了壓力。 從研究前到研究後的壓力水平顯著降低。自我評估與最終 PSS 評分之間存在相關性。有一個例外， 在 20 週的壓力水平沒有恢復到預研壓力水平。 

CONCLUSION: (結論) 

This study supports the hypothesis that the calming effect of Reiki may be achieved through the use of self-Reiki. 

這項研究支持靈氣的鎮靜作用可以通過使用自我靈氣來實現的假設。
