Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Changes in self-reported depression symptoms as measured by the Patient Health Questionnaire - 8 from baseline to 2-week follow-up. Separate comparisons will be made between study skills and each of the three intervention conditions - growth, gratitude, and values. Additionally, the three intervention conditions will be compared to each other to determine their relative effects.;Changes in self-reported anxiety symptoms, measured by the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Screener - 7 from baseline to 2-week follow-up. Separate comparisons will be made between study skills and each of the three intervention conditions - growth, gratitude, and values. Additionally, the three intervention conditions will be compared to each other to determine their relative effects.;Changes in self-reported happiness, as measured by the EPOCH Measure of Adolescent Well-Being - Happiness subscale. Separate comparisons will be made between study skills and each of the three intervention conditions - growth, gratitude, and values. Additionally, the three intervention conditions will be compared to each other to determine their relative effects. | — |

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Moderator analysis on primary outcomes with level of anxiety symptoms as a categorical moderator - categories will be no-anxiety, 0-4 on GAD-7, mild-anxiety, 5-9 on the GAD-7, and moderate-to-severe anxiety, 10 or greater on the GAD - 7. Separate comparisons will be made between study skills and each of the three intervention conditions - growth, gratitude, and values. Additionally, the three intervention conditions will be compared to each other to determine their relative effects.;Moderator analysis on primary outcomes with level of depression symptoms as a categorical moderator - categories will be defined as minimal-or-none depression, defined as 0-4 on the PHQ-8, mild depression, defined as 5-9 on the PHQ-8, moderate depression, defined as 10-14 on the PHQ-8, moderately severe-to-severe depression, defined as greater than 15 on the PHQ-8. Separate comparisons will be made between study skills and each of the three intervention conditions - growth, gratitude, and values. Additionally, the three intervention conditions will be compared to each other to determine their relative effects.;Changes in average academic grade from school-term before participation to school-term after participation, as measured by the average grade overall, in math and science, and in humanities and languages, achieved by student across all enrolled students. As participants will be students from various classes and in various schools, student average grades will be rescaled, a mean of 60 and SD of 10 will be used in rescaling. Separate comparisons will be made between study skills and each of the three intervention conditions - growth, gratitude, and values. Additionally, the three intervention conditions will be compared to each other to determine their relative effects.;A feedback scale will be used to collect acceptability and feasibility data from participants. The youths will be asked questions on the usefulness of the program, whether they understood the contents of the program, w | — |
