COMET
Participants receive modules focused on cognitive restructuring, gratitude, behavioral activation and self-compassion. Participants were randomized to receive 3 of the 4 possible modules: behavioral activation, cognitive restructuring, gratitude, and self-compassion.Participants in the intervention condition were randomized to receive descriptions of the four modules at the beginning of the intervention that were phrased to focus on building and improving strengths (positive) or reducing negative emotions and behaviors (negative).
