help college students to cope with stress through online customized mindfulness and mediation services
Project Description
Background:
College students experience increased anxiety and stress levels because of limited social interactions and online education that lead to social isolation and uncertainty regarding academic achievement. To help relieve students’ stress, many colleges provide professional counseling services via phone call or video meeting at set times. Some also create webinars to share tools and strategies for stress reduction. However, these have major limitations due to a high dependency on students’ attendance.
Goal:
The overarching goal is to help college students to cope with stress through a personalized and closed-loop stress reduction tool which 1) tailored to individual stress symptoms and preferences (not standardized contents) and 2) delivered just-in-time and adaptive mindfulness intervention (not a series of episodic courses). The outcome should be a) changes of psychological instrument scores; b) adherence and user behaviors.
