Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study was a randomized controlled trial of an original online mental health promotion program. This study aimed to: 1) establish program effectiveness by examining symptom change between conditions and 2) examine predictors of symptom change. The program was previously tested in open trial feasibility study by the same Principal Investigator and has since been rebuilt as informed by feasibility findings and participant qualitative feedback.

Participants were randomly assigned to either a waitlist condition or eight weeks of the intervention condition. Baseline, posttest, and follow-up electronic surveys collected self-reported symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression. Motivational variables were also assessed at baseline and then tested as moderators of intervention effects.

Intervention Condition

Participants in this condition were delivered 8 weeks of online intervention modules and then were invited to complete a posttest survey.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

StriveWeekly

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The intervention (app.striveweekly.com) delivered eight modules: introduction module, six skills modules, and wrap-up module. The two program "brand name" versions had identical content, but different aesthetic schemes. Modules were released week-by-week, and participants self-guided through content. To facilitate skills practice, every module was accompanied by: a weekly intro email and reminder emails; an "extras" section for tips/suggestions; and a weekly prize drawing. The "Dashboard" section of the intervention displayed user progress. The "Campus" section of this dashboard provided: campus-specific announcements; referrals to relevant campus wellness resources; and an anonymous livestream of all campus users' activity.

Strategies/skills included: Psychoeducation; Self-monitoring; Behavioral activation; Cognitive restructuring; Sleep hygiene; Time management; Interpersonal avoidance exposures; Physical exercise; Mindfulness; Maintenance planning.

Waitlist Condition

Participants in this condition received no intervention content nor communications for 8 weeks and then were invited to complete a posttest survey.
