Summary

This study looks at whether spending 2 to 3.5 weeks at a device-free summer camp in Maine can improve mental health and brain activity in teens aged 12 to 17. Researchers will measure changes in mental health scores and brain waves (EEG) from the start to the end of camp. The goal is to see if a break from digital devices and more in-person social interaction can make a difference.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Attendance of a residential device-free summer camp for 2-3.5 weeks
What this could lead to
If this works, it could point toward simple, drug-free ways to support teen mental health and well-being.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study without a comparison group, so changes could be due to other factors. Results may not apply to all teens.
