“…[ 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ] The duration of the yoga module ranged between 12 min[ 26 ] and 90 min[ 27 28 ] averaging to about 50 min per session. The number of sessions ranged between 1 and 5 sessions per week wherein the complete intervention generally lasted between 5 days[ 29 ] and 3 months. [ 28 ] The average duration of therapy was 7 weeks, while three articles omitted information concerning the dosage and frequency.…”

“…Nineteen studies tested the feasibility of the module.

Feedback of the participants about the module was taken by 19 studies.…”

“…[ 42 ] The researchers ranked the articles into three categories: low quality (0–7), medium (8–16), and high (17–23).

“…Hence, most of the studies did not qualify for a rating of “high quality.” Different development and validation modalities were investigated and the most commonly used development method was literature review, while for validation, experts' scoring on the Likert scale was frequently used. For diseases such as diabetes mellitus,[ 19 39 ] Parkinson's disease,[ 21 45 ] cardiovascular diseases,[ 23 28 ] cancer,[ 30 43 ] and obesity,[ 29 46 ] there were more than one module development studies. The present study recommends that in such cases, the researcher needs to mention what is lacking in the existing module and the rationale why a new module should be validated.…”

In the past decades, more than fifty different yoga styles have been implemented in the therapeutic context to manage various diseases. Yet, not all of these yoga styles have been validated or standardized as a program. The aim of this article is to review the different methodologies used for yoga module development and to assess their quality. Three databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus) were searched using the following keywords and Boolean operators: (validation OR development OR design) AND (yoga OR mind-body) AND (module OR protocol OR program). Three thousand six hundred and seventy-one articles were enlisted, and based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 37 articles were narrowed down for review. Since no checklist exists to assess the quality of yoga modules, the authors designed a 23-item checklist to categorize each having low, medium, or high quality. As per the yoga module quality checklist, only 21.6% of the studies had high quality, while 75.3% of the articles had medium quality and 8.11% had low quality. A commonly used development method was literature review, while for validation, experts' scoring of the Likert scale was the preferred means. The feasibility of the module was carried out only by half of the studies. Few diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, obesity, Parkinson's disease, and obesity had more than one yoga module developed. The findings of this systematic review have shed some light on the growing need for standardized methods of yoga module development. The 23-item checklist can guide researchers in the homogeneous development strategies when designing yoga interventions in the future.
