In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Purrble+SSI for Anxiety and Emotion Regulation. Completed, enrolled 191 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The primary aim of the proposed Randomised Control study is to investigate the effects of a socially assisted robot (i.e. Purrble) and a co-designed, bespoke Single Session Intervention (SSI) on students' anxiety (GAD-7) over the period of the two academic terms (in comparison to a wait-listed student group). Secondary aims include investigating the effects of the Purrble and SSI on students' emotion regulation processes, depressive symptoms, and quantitative and qualitative (interviews) measures of engagement with the intervention.
