Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Project SOLVEExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Project SOLVE is a ~30-minute self-guided digital intervention designed to teach children and adolescents how to set goals and solve problems systematically. Specifically, Project SOLVE is based on problem solving, a core component of cognitive behavioral therapy, a gold standard treatment for internalizing disorders. Project SOLVE uses vignettes, interactive activities, and engaging graphics to teach youth a systematic strategy for solving problems. Project SOLVE was previously found to be effective in reducing mental health symptoms among American children (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12310-023-09598-7).
Group II: Delayed Receipt of Project SOLVE Control ConditionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
No intervention for first three months; will receive SOLVE after 3-months and become a second-wave intervention condition.
