College Student Stress: Transitions Over Time

This research study is being conducted to better understand how college students develop and cope with stress and to identify opportunities to help students notice and respond to stress early before symptoms contribute to significant negative consequences. This project will be completed in two parts. In the first part (not a trial) participants will be asked to complete a screening survey to determine eligibility. Eligible participants (i.e., those with mild-to-moderate depressive symptoms and not receiving mental health care) will continue into the clinical trial portion (part two). There were 120 students in the clinical trial phase of the study, where 30 were randomly assigned to "assessment only" and 90 to the "intervention" condition.
