Summary

This study tested a 45-minute chat with an AI bot that teaches a 'growth mindset' — the idea that you can get better with effort. About 383 students in grades 6-8 in India took part. The goal was to see if the chatbot could lower symptoms of anxiety and depression. Results may show if a simple, digital tool can help young people who don't have access to mental health care.
