Identification of Biomarkers for Stress Vulnerability and Resilience
July 28, 2023 updated by: Huda Akil, University of Michigan
The purpose of this research study is to understand the biological mechanisms of stress vulnerability (being susceptible to stress) and stress resilience (being able to recover readily from stress), obtain biomarkers (a biological indicator) for stress resilience and to devise strategies for prevention and treatment of stress-related disorders.
Study Overview
Detailed Description
This study will be using the Maya application (app) for the intervention arm, a mobile cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) program for adolescents and young adults experiencing anxiety symptoms.
The Maya app, developed at Weill Cornell, teaches cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques including emotion monitoring, cognitive restructuring, mindfulness, and exposure to help individuals with anxiety.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in anxiety symptoms based on the General Anxiety Disorder-7 Scale (GAD-7) between the intervention arm and the no intervention arm
Time Frame: Baseline, up to 12 months
|
The GAD-7 is a 7 item questionnaire to measure the severity of anxiety symptoms (scores between 0-21).
The items measure both psychic anxiety and somatic anxiety, where higher scores, defined by a score range of greater than or equal to 10, indicate a greater presence of symptoms and lower scores, defined by a score range of 0-9, indicate mild to no anxiety symptoms.
Change in anxiety ratings between the intervention arm and the no intervention arm.
|
Baseline, up to 12 months
|
Change in depressive symptoms based on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) between the intervention arm and the no intervention arm
Time Frame: Baseline, up to 12 months
|
The PHQ-9 is a 9-item scale containing three subscales measuring physical, cognitive, and social concerns regarding depression.
Higher scores, defined by a score range of greater than or equal to 10, reflect greater presence of symptoms and lower scores, defined by a score range of 0-9, indicate mild to no depression symptoms.
Change in depression ratings between the intervention arm and the no intervention arm.
|
Baseline, up to 12 months
|
Change in anxiety symptoms based on the Spielberger State and Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) between the intervention arm and the no intervention arm
Time Frame: Baseline, up to 12 months
|
The Spielberger State and Trait Anxiety Inventory is a validated self-reporting instrument used to assess anxiety.
The inventory consists of state anxiety, which evaluates how the subject feels currently (transient anxiety) and trait anxiety (anxiety related to personality).
The scale consists of 20 questions to determine state and 20 questions for trait anxiety with a 4-point Likert scale, a higher score indicates greater anxiety.
Total score for state and trait measures ranges from 20 (no anxiety) to 80 (maximum anxiety).
Change in anxiety ratings between the intervention arm and the no intervention arm.

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)
Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?
YES
IPD Plan Description
Individual participant data that underlie the results of the proposed study will be shared with the scientific community after deidentification.
The analytic code the team used will also be shared.
Sharing will require a proposal from scientists who specify the questions to be asked and describe methodologically sound approaches to address their aims.
Proposals should be directed to akil@umich.edu.
To get access to the data, requestors will need to sign a data transfer and use agreement.
IPD Sharing Time Frame
Data will be made available upon full publication of the results and will end 36 months following article publication.
