Summary
"This trial aims to test a self-administered video-based program to reduce stigma and mistrust among Black adults with moderate to severe depression or anxiety."
Who is the study for?
This trial is for Black American or Black immigrant adults aged 18-45 who have depression or anxiety, own a smartphone with internet, and haven't been in regular healthcare or seen a mental health professional in the past year. It's not for those with certain impairments or severe mental health conditions like psychosis.
What is being tested?
The study tests three different self-administered video interventions aimed at reducing stigma around mental illness and distrust in medical systems among Black adults suffering from moderate to severe depression or anxiety.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves educational videos, there are no direct physical side effects expected. However, participants may experience emotional discomfort while discussing sensitive topics related to mental health.
