Area of Science:

  • Mental Health Research
  • Psychology
  • Digital Health Interventions

Background:

  • University students (ages 15-24) are prone to psychological issues like anxiety and depression.
  • Prevalence of anxiety and depressive disorders is high among Spanish university students.
  • Limited access to treatment for university students with emotional disorders (EDs).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the effectiveness, acceptability, and implementation of Universal Prevention (UP) in online group versus blended formats.
  • To assess UP's impact on anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance in university students.
  • To evaluate program adherence and user satisfaction with different UP delivery methods.

Main Methods:

  • Randomized controlled trial with 70 university students.
  • Intervention delivered in online group or blended formats.
  • Assessments conducted pre-intervention, post-intervention, and at 1 and 3-month follow-ups.

    • Main Results:

    • Expected improvements in anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance in both conditions.
    • High acceptability and satisfaction anticipated for both online and blended UP formats.
    • No significant differences expected between the two intervention formats.

    Conclusions:

    • Universal Prevention (UP) shows utility and efficiency for treating EDs in university settings.
    • Online and blended UP formats can enhance mental health service accessibility for students.
    • Findings may guide cost-effective, scalable interventions for university mental health services.
