Expanding College Student Mental Health with Stress Management Mobile Technologies

对许多美国人来说，大学时代是一个心理压力增加的时期， 学生们报告说，心理健康治疗存在重大障碍。PI的目标是成为独立的 具有创建和评估行为干预技术（BIT）专业知识的调查员， 在现有系统内扩大精神保健服务的范围。这 计划 提议 西北 技术， 提案概述了 为了实现这一目标，通过培训和研究计划的高潮，成为一个成功的R 01 培训计划充分利用了以下机构的有力支持和环境： 该大学的范伯格医学院和行为干预中心 该计划由主要导师领导。PI职业生涯所需的培训目标 目标包括：（1）发展以用户为中心的双边投资条约设计，（2）实施科学，（3） 临床科学，包括定性研究和新的临床研究方法，以及（4）先进的 专业技能。这 心理 将 中心） 研究 的 该计划建立在PI的临床心理学背景，重点是远程， 健康、压力管理干预和认知行为疗法）。在此K 08中，PI 将她的工作扩展到包括新的人群（例如大学生）和环境（大学咨询 通过早期干预来增加她的研究的影响。的长期目标 将双边投资条约纳入现有的大学医疗保健环境，从而扩大范围和覆盖面 心理健康服务。研究计划 ( 将开发和测试学生压力管理（SSM） 移动的程序基于抑郁症和焦虑症的循证治疗框架内。这 该计划将增加对心理健康治疗的参与，并通过作为 获得更广泛的心理健康治疗选择的一个接入点，并作为一种独立的治疗形式。这 将 细化 对 大学社区; 假设 的 设计 增加 通过以下具体目标实现：1）进行以用户为中心的设计和可用性测试， SSM计划的功能和工具，并确定该计划的可行性和可接受性，以供使用 校园; 2）进行 和3）获得初步数据评估的有效性SSM计划，变化， 与效率有关的机制，以及大学系统层面的因素，将促进或阻碍 项目的采用、实施和可持续性。这些研究有望推动 为年轻人制定双边投资条约，并最终在大学环境中改进和增加双边投资条约的使用， 循证做法的范围和影响。 在两年内对SSM计划进行试点混合有效性实施试验， O 通过实施项目获得的技能 本申请中提出的建议将允许PI成功竞争R 01资金，以便进行 更大的有效性实施试验。

The college years present a period of increased psychological distress for many Americans and college students report significant barriers to mental health treatment. The PI's goal is to become an independent investigator with expertise in the creation and evaluation of behavioral intervention technologies (BITs) in order to broaden the scope of mental healthcare service availability within existing systems. This plan proposal. Northwestern Technologies, proposal outlines a to achieve this goal, through the culmination of training and research plans into a successful R01 The training plan takes full advantage of the strong institutional support and environment at University's Feinberg School of Medicine and the Center for Behavioral Intervention which is led by the primary mentor for this proposal.Training goals necessary to the PI's career goal include growth in (1) user-centered design for the development of BITs, (2) implementation science, (3) clinical science including qualitative research and new clinical research methodologies, and (4) advanced professional skills. This mental will centers) research of plan builds on the PI's background in clinical psychology, which has focused on tele- health, stress management interventions, and cognitive behavioral therapy CBT). In this K08, the PI extend her work to include new populations (e.g. college students) and settings (college counseling to increase the impact of her research through earlier intervention. The long-terms goal of the is to integrate BITs into existing university healthcare settings, thus broadening the scope and reach mental healthcare services. The research plan ( will develop and test a Student Stress Management (SSM) mobile program based within the framework of an evidence-based treatment for depression and anxiety. This program will increase engagement with mental health treatment, and supplement existing care by serving as an access point to more extensive mental health treatment options and as an independent treatment form. This will refine on university communities; hypothesized the design increasing be achieved through the following specific aims: 1) to conduct user-centered design and usability testing to features and tools of the SSM program and determine feasibility and acceptability of the program for use campus; 2) to conduct and 3) to btain preliminary data assessing efficacy the SSM program, changes in mechanisms related to efficacy, and university system-level factors that would facilitate or retard adoption, i mplementation, and sustainability of the program. These studies are expected to advance the of BITs for young adults, and improve and increase the use of BITs in university settings, ultimately the reach and impact of evidence-based practices. a pilot hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial of the SSM program within two o Skills acquired by carrying out the projects proposed in this application will allow the PI to successfully compete for R01 funding in order to conduct a larger effectiveness-implementation trial.
