NCT ID NCT06024083
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a series of 14 animated videos that teach coping skills based on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). The videos are available in English and Mandarin and are designed for Chinese and Chinese American college students. Researchers want to see if watching these videos helps students regulate their emotions and feel more confident in handling stressful situations. The study involves 91 participants and focuses on how useful and acceptable the videos are.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills video intervention
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could provide a simple, accessible way for Chinese and Chinese American students to learn coping skills and improve emotional well-being.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with no control group, so results may not be generalizable. The intervention is only videos, which may not be enough for those with serious mental health needs.
