What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating Project SOLVE, an online problem-solving program, to support the mental health of young people aged 12 to 14 in New Zealand. This randomized controlled trial compares Project SOLVE to Project Success, which teaches study skills. Strengthening problem-solving skills has been linked to better mental health outcomes, including reducing depression and hopelessness among youth. Participants will be randomly assigned to complete either Project SOLVE or Project Success, both 30-minute self-guided online activities. Project SOLVE focuses on teaching problem-solving through a specific SOLVE method, while Project Success offers strategies for academic success. Both interventions are delivered digitally in a school-based setting. Throughout the study, participants will complete assessments before, immediately after, and 12 weeks following the intervention. Researchers will measure mental health symptoms, problem-solving skills, self-efficacy, hope, hopelessness, well-being, and educational confidence. The study aims to track changes over time to understand the effects of these programs on adolescent mental health.
