Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The aim of this study is to test the clinical effects of a web and mobile application of PST for depressive symptoms among the general population in Turkey.
Participants will be recruited through announcements in social media and the Middle East Technical University. A randomized controlled trial with a sample size of 444 participants randomized across three groups will be utilized. The first experimental group will receive direct access to the web version of the intervention; the second experimental group will receive direct access to the mobile app of the intervention as well as automated supportive text messages based on PST. The control group consists of a wait-list and for ethical reasons, participants in this group will gain access to the intervention (either web or mobile application) four months after the baseline. The intervention is based on an existing PST for the Turkish population, "Her Sey Kontrol Altinda" (HSKA).
