Strengthening Health and Insight in New Educators Study

This study, called "Strengthening Health and Insight in New Educators," is looking at whether an app called the Healthy Minds Program can help prevent anxiety and depression in teachers who are still in training. Teachers face a lot of stress, and this study wants to see if using this app can help them maintain their mental health before they start teaching. You might be able to join if you are a student in "Block 3" at the University of Alabama, which means you are in your final year of teacher training. The study will measure how you feel about depression and anxiety at the beginning, after using the app for three months, and then again at 3 months and 12 months after that. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 140 participants.

What this trial measures

  • Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Depression - Short Form 8bParticipants will report on depression at baseline, post-intervention (3 months after baseline), 3-month follow-up , and 12-month follow-up.

    Participants will self-report on depression. Each of the 8 items is rated on 1 (1 = Never) to 5 (5 = Always) scale. Responses will be summed to create the raw scale score. Higher values indicate greater symptoms of depression (i.e., a worse outcome).

  • Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Anxiety - Short Form 7aParticipants will report on anxiety at baseline, post-intervention (3 months after baseline), 3-month follow-up, and 12-month follow-up.

    Participants will self-report on anxiety. Each of the 7 items is rated on 1 (1 = Never) to 5 (5 = Always) scale. Responses will be summed to create the raw scale score. Higher values indicate greater symptoms of anxiety (i.e., a worse outcome).
