Evaluating The Impact of A Mental Health App on Depression and Resilience Among Medical Students
Sponsor: National University of Malaysia
Summary
This randomized controlled trial aims to determine whether access to a mental health app improves resilience and reduces depressive symptoms among medical students over a three-month period. Compared to the control group, researchers hypothesized that medical students in the intervention group are expected to show: * Significant reductions in depressive symptoms and greater improvements in resilience after three months of usage. * Significant reduction in thoughts of self-harm and anxiety, and improvement in self-esteem after three months of usage. Researchers will compare two groups to evaluate the app's impact on wellbeing: * Intervention group: Receives immediate full access to the mental health app. * Control group: Receives basic, without full access to the mental health app. Participants will explore and experience the various features offered in the mental health app over a three-month period.
