Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
In this 4-armed, parallel, randomized controlled trial, 10,000 adult, US participants will be randomly assigned to (1) a short, animated storytelling intervention video on positive psychological capital followed by the psychological capital , gratitude and happiness surveys (2) the surveys only, (3) an attention placebo control video followed by the before mentioned surveys, and (4) an arm that is exposed to neither the video nor the surveys. Two weeks later, participants in all four arms will complete all of the surveys.
The primary outcome is psychological capital (immediate and medium-term). Secondary outcomes are gratitude and happiness (immediate and medium-term) as well as voluntary engagement with the short, animated storytelling video content.
