Gedetailleerde beschrijving
Depression and anxiety disorders are among the most prevalent psychological difficulties and contribute to negative economic, social, and health outcomes. As they are frequently comorbid and share underlying mechanisms of dysfunction, many scholars have conceptualized these as a unified category of emotional disorders. Addressing processes contributing to dysfunction among individuals who are at risk for developing emotional disorders has the potential to prevent significant negative impact.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) has received empirical support in the treatment of depression and anxiety in a number of examinations. ACT aims to shape acceptance of challenging thoughts and feelings and engagement with areas of life one finds meaningful and important. The converse of acceptance, experiential avoidance, or the unwillingness to experience unpleasant thoughts and emotions even when doing so is maladaptive, has been predictive of symptoms of depression and anxiety. Reducing experiential avoidance and shaping alternative responses, such as acceptance and behavior consistent with one's values, termed committed action, is a promising strategy for targeting risk for emotional disorders.
Traditional means of delivering interventions fail to reach a substantial proportion of those who struggle with psychological difficulties. Barriers such as distance, time, and cost contribute to these challenges. Digital mental health interventions offer a means to overcome treatment barriers and increase access. These approaches can be delivered in individual's homes at the time of their choosing. Additionally, digital interventions can be delivered to many people at the same time, reducing cost. Support for the impact of ACT-informed digital interventions on symptoms of depression and anxiety has been obtained, suggesting that this framework is promising for reducing risk.
The goal of the current study is to compare the impact of a digital ACT-informed intervention on psychological symptoms and processes of change among individuals at risk for depression and anxiety. The following hypotheses will be evaluated:
- Individuals in the treatment condition will experience a decrease in symptoms of depression and anxiety compared to those in the control group
- Individuals in the treatment condition will experience a decrease in experiential avoidance and increase in values consistent behavior compared to those in the control group
- The digital intervention will generally be rated positively
- The relationship between cognitive fusion and treatment response will be explored

COVID-19 Impact Indicators repeated measure of change
Tijdsspanne: Measured at baseline, 2 weeks post baseline, and 4 weeks post baseline
|
Participants will provide information on how they have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
They will respond to the question "How has the COVID-19 outbreak affected you in the past two weeks (you can select multiple options)" selecting from among 10 possible options: Diagnosed with COVID-19, worked remotely or from home more than you usually do, worked more hours than usual, worked reduced hours, was not able to work, had difficulty arranging for childcare, incurred increased costs for childcare expenses, income or pay has been reduced, not paid at all, had serious financial problems.
Participants may choose between 0 and 10 possible COVID-19 impacts.
These do not belong to a standardized questionnaire, but have been used by other researchers to describe the impact of COVID-19.

Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire
Tijdsspanne: Measured at baseline
|
The Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire is a self report measure of cognitive fusion consisting of seven items.
Higher scores indicate greater cognitive fusion and scores can range from 7 to 49.

Treatment Experience/Perceived Need Questions
Tijdsspanne: Measured at baseline
|
Participants will respond to three questions about past experience with mental health treatment and perceived future need with yes/no responses. These questions do not belong to a standardized questionnaire, but have been used by other researchers to describe participant experience. In the past 12 months, did you receive therapy from a professional counselor or therapist to help you with emotional or mental health problems such as feeling sad, blue, anxious, or nervous? In the past 12 months, did a healthcare professional prescribe medications to help you with emotional or mental health problems such as feeling sad, blue, anxious, or nervous? In the past 12 months, did you think you needed help for emotional or mental health problems such as feeling sad, blue, anxious, or nervous? |
