Effectiveness of the Safe Haven Application (App) Among Undergraduates

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Safe Haven app in reducing mental health symptoms and enhancing mental health literacy in undergraduates at a national university in southern Taiwan. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the Safe Haven app lead to significantly greater reductions in general psychological distress, depression, anxiety, and stress compared to standard campus care? Does the app result in greater improvements in mental health literacy among participants? Researchers will compare an experimental group (receiving the Safe Haven app in addition to standard campus care) to a waitlist control group (receiving standard campus care only) to see if the intervention provides superior improvements in mental health outcomes over time. Participants will: Complete online assessments at three time points: baseline (T0), post-intervention (3 months, T1), and follow-up (3 months post-intervention, T2). Experimental Group: Download the Safe Haven app to complete daily mood self-monitoring and weekly assessments, and receive psychoeducational content, personalized suggestions for 3 months. Control Group: Maintain access to standard campus care and receive access to the app after the final follow-up assessment.
