About this study
Official title: Reducing Self-stigma and Increasing Treatment Seeking Intentions Among Youth With Depressive Symptoms: A Mixed-methods Study
Young people with depression, especially those of underserved minority groups, avoid treatment due to stigma and discrimination. Social contact is a form of interpersonal contact with members of the stigmatized group and the most effective type of intervention for improvement in stigma-related knowledge and attitudes.
In a prior study, the investigators developed short video interventions to reduce stigma and increase treatment seeking among people with depression. The videos vary by protagonist race/ethnicity (Latinx, non-Latinx Black, non-Latinx White) who share their experiences with depression, challenges, and recovery process. The investigators would like to test the efficacy of these videos using Prolific (a crowdsourcing platform). Specifically, the investigators are interested in conducting a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the efficacy of these videos as compared to a vignette control condition on reducing self-stigma and increasing help-seeking intentions and behavior at baseline, post, and 30 day follow-up among youth with depressive symptom scores on the PHQ-9≥ 5.
Read the detailed description
In a randomized control trial (RCT) with pre-, post-intervention, and 30-day follow-up assessments, we aim to 1) test the efficacy of brief social video interventions, varying protagonist race/ethnicity, as compared to vignette control in reducing self-stigma and increasing treatment-seeking intentions and behavior among 1600 Prolific users ages 18-25 with depressive symptoms (PHQ-9≥ 5), and 2) explore whether matching to protagonist race/ethnicity increases intervention efficacy. We hypothesize that 1) Brief social contact-based video interventions will reduce self-stigma towards depression and increase treatment-seeking intentions and behavior compared to vignette control, and 2) The participants whose race/ethnicity match the protagonist will have greater changes in self-stigma and treatment-seeking than participants with unmatched protagonists, i.e., matching moderates the intervention's effects.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Depression Stigma
The Depression Stigma Scale (DSS) is a self-report scale comprised of two 9-item subscales measuring participants' personal beliefs about depression and participants' beliefs about others' attitudes (Griffiths et al., 2004). The current study will only utilize the personal beliefs subscale. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from strongly disagree (1) to strongly agree (5). Scores range from 9 to 45. Higher scores indicate more stigma.
Measured: Baseline

Measured: 30 day follow-up
Attitude Towards Seeking Professional Psychological Help
Treatment seeking intentions will be measured using three items from the Attitudes Towards Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale (ATSPPHS) Scale (Elhai et al., 2008). Items include: 'I might want to have psychological counselling in the future', 'I would want to get psychological help if I were worried or upset for a long period of time' and 'A person with an emotional problem is not likely to solve it alone; he or she is more likely to solve it with professional help'. Responses range from 1 (disagree) to 4 (agree). Total scores range from 3 to 12 with higher scores indicating higher treatment seeking intentions.

Treatment-related stigma will be measured with the Self-Stigma of Seeking Help scale (SSOSH-3) (Brenner et al., 2021). Items include "I would feel inadequate if I went to a therapist for psychological help," "It would make me feel inferior to ask a therapist for help," and "If I went to a therapist, I would be less satisfied with myself." Response range from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Total scores range from 3 to 15, with higher scores indicating greater stigma.

Secondary outcomes (1)
Emotional engagement
Emotional engagement will be measured using the Emotional Engagement Scale (de Vreede et al., 2019). The scale includes three items asking about emotional engagement (e.g., "I care about the contents of this video"), and response choices range from 1 (strongly disagree) to 4 (strongly agree). Total scores range from 3 to 12, with higher scores indicating greater emotional engagement.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Young people with depression, especially those of underserved minority groups, avoid treatment due to stigma and discrimination. Social contact is a form of interpersonal contact with members of the stigmatized group and the most effective type of intervention for improvement in stigma-related knowledge and attitudes.
In a prior study, the investigators developed short video interventions to reduce stigma and increase treatment seeking among people with depression. The videos vary by protagonist race/ethnicity (Latinx, non-Latinx Black, non-Latinx White) who share their experiences with depression, challenges, and recovery process.
