Beary's GEM Project: Emotion Regulation Flexibility Among College Students
Understanding and Supporting Emotion Regulation Flexibility Among College Students - Beary's GEM Program
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate a single-session intervention program on emotion regulation flexibility in college students. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- To evaluate the effectiveness of the digital single-session intervention program in improving emotion regulation flexibility among college students.
- To examine the effectiveness of the intervention in supporting well-being, including psychological distress and subjective well-being.
- To examine the acceptability and utility of the emotion regulation flexibility single-session intervention program.
- To explore participants' personal understanding of emotion regulation flexibility and the experience of intervention through semi-structured interviews.
Researchers will compare the experimental group (Beary's GEM program) and the active control group (Sharing Feelings Project) to answer the first two research questions.
Participants will
- Be randomly assigned and complete a digital single-session intervention
- Complete pre- and post-intervention questionnaires on emotion regulation flexibility and well-being
- Have a video chat with a researcher (optional)

설명
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age: >=18 and <=25 as of 2026 November
- To be assigned to the experimental group or the waitlist control group, participants who score below the median (ERFS <= 33) on the 9-item Emotion Regulation Flexibility Scale will be redirected and randomly assigned to a study condition. This decision was made based on a previous study on the emotion regulation flexibility intervention to reduce the ceiling effect. However, all the questionnaire responses (regardless of scores on ERFS) for assessment 1 will be maintained.
- Able to comprehend and complete the questionnaire and intervention in English
Exclusion Criteria:
- Not within the target age range
- Participants who had a score greater than 33 on the 9-item Emotion Regulation Flexibility Scale will not be assigned to a study condition after completing assessment 1.
- Not able to comprehend and complete the questionnaire in English

실험적: Beary's GEM Project
Participants will complete a series of brief, structured activities that are designed to introduce and practice emotion regulation strategies and their flexibility. |
Participants in the experimental group will be directed to a digital, single-session intervention (Beary's GEM Project) that targets three aspects of emotion regulation flexibility: context sensitivity, repertoire, and feedback responsiveness. |
|
활성 비교기: Sharing Feelings Project
The Sharing Feeling Project will be administered as the placebo intervention for the active control group. This condition focuses on content that encourages participants to share feelings with people in their support circle. |
Participants in the active control group will be directed to a digital single-session intervention (Sharing Feelings Project) aiming to encourage participants to share feelings with people in their support circle. However, unlike the experimental intervention, it does not teach a specific psychological mechanism (i.e., emotion regulation flexibility). |
