Mental Health and Well-being for Hispanic Immigrants

This study is looking at how giving Hispanic immigrants access to a mental health app can help their emotional well-being. You might be able to join if you are an immigrant to the U.S. of Hispanic origin, speak Spanish, have lived in the U.S. for less than 10 years, are over 18, have some signs of psychological distress (a PHQ4 score of 3 or more), are interested in a well-being app, don't have a graduate degree, and own a smartphone. The study is testing two different ways to use the app: either 2 months of access or 4 months of access. Researchers will see if using the app helps with depression, anxiety, and stress up to six months after you join. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is an interventional study planning to enroll 2100 participants. It is testing different ways to access a mental health app and different incentives.
What's involved
You would use a well-being app for either two or four months. Your depression, anxiety, and stress levels will be measured up to six months after you join.
Compensation
You might receive a $10 gift card if you use the app enough, or you could be entered into a lottery for a $150 gift card, depending on your group.
Follow-up
Your well-being will be assessed for up to six months after you enroll in the study.
