Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study hopes to assess whether a month long computerized intervention aimed at giving people skills to form closer friendships. Participants will be randomized into an active treatment condition or a wait list control. We hypothesize that 1) participants in the treatment condition will have lower fear of intimacy at post treatment than those in the waitlist condition 2) participants in the treatment condition will have lower levels of loneliness than those in the waitlist condition 3) participants in the treatment condition will have higher perceived social support than those in the waitlist condition.
