Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
How are willingness to feel upset and self-efficacy for withstanding distress associated with different emotion regulation strategies used in daily life?
Does targeting willingness to feel upset and/or self-efficacy for withstanding distress help people use more effective emotion regulation strategies in daily life when they feel upset?
Are improvements in emotion regulation strategies in daily life associated with fewer symptoms of mental health problems over time?
Participants will:
Answer questions about their moods, willingness to feel upset, self-efficacy for withstanding distress and emotion regulation strategies for three weeks using a cell phone app
Undergo a willingness, self-efficacy, combined or psychoeducational control intervention in the lab
Be prompted to use the intervention skill via the cell phone app during the second week, after the intervention
Complete weekly reports of mental health symptoms
