Summary

This study tests whether a smartphone app based on the PERMA model (Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, Accomplishment) can improve psychological well-being in university students. About 177 students will use the app for five weeks, with some also receiving group phone support. The goal is to see if these tools help students feel better emotionally and mentally, with results checked right after the program and six months later.
