What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in decisional conflict scale (SURE) scores

    Self-assessed perceptions of decision conflict will be assessed using the 4-item Decision Conflict Scale (SURE). Scores on the SURE scale range from 0 to 4, with higher scores indicating less decisional conflict. A score of less than 4 indicates decisional conflict.

    Measured: Baseline and 8-week follow-up

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in proportion of participants who have Intention to seek help for mental health

    We will use a survey item to assess participants' intention to seek help for mental health issues when needed. A response will be 0 (No) or 1 (Yes).

    Measured: Baseline and 8-week follow-up

  2. Change in self-reported emotional wellness outcome

    We will use the four-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ4) for measuring anxiety and depression symptoms. Scores are rated as normal (0-2), mild (3-5), moderate (6-8), and severe (9-12). Total score 3 or higher for the first 2 questions suggests anxiety, and total score 3 or higher for the last 2 questions suggests depression.

    Measured: Baseline and 8-week follow-up

  3. Change in the percentage of participants' awareness of resources to get help or to learn more about improving emotional wellness

    We will assess participants' awareness of resources to get help or to learn more about improving emotional wellness. Two items created for the study will be used: 1) Do you know about "988"? (Yes, No, Unsure) 2) Do you know where to get help for mental health issues when you need to? (Yes, No, Unsure). The percentage of participants who answer "yes" to both questions will be assessed.

    Measured: Baseline and 8-week follow-up
