摘要

在大流行和非大流行背景下，公共卫生需要有效的、可扩展的干预措施来解决抑郁和孤独问题，并改善社会关系的质量。为此，一项随机对照试验测试了一种基于移动的干预方法，该方法源自社会心理学和关系科学，旨在改善人际关系，减少抑郁和孤独。方法:参与者被随机分配到干预组(n = 719)或仅评估组(n = 701)，并在第一波Covid-19大流行期间完成28天的每日日记调查。在研究的中间14天，参与干预的参与者每天都会收到关于改善人际关系和心理健康的短信建议。结果:结果表明，干预在干预期间减少了抑郁和孤独感，改善了人际关系，但这些变化在干预结束后并不持续。讨论:结果令人鼓舞，因为基于证据的建议可以有效地扩展，但需要额外的努力来维持改进。

A Brief, Mobile Intervention to Decrease Depression and Loneliness and Improve Relationship Quality During the Covid-19 Pandemic

Introduction: Effective, scalable interventions to address depression and loneliness and improve the quality of social relationships are needed for public health in pandemic and non-pandemic contexts. Towards this end, a randomized, controlled trial tested a mobile-based intervention, derived from social psychological and relationship science, for improving relational well-being and decreasing depression and loneliness. Methods: Participants were randomly assigned to either intervention (n = 719) or assessment only (n = 701) conditions and completed daily diary surveys for 28 days in the midst of the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. In the middle 14 days of the study, intervention participants received daily text-message suggestions for improving relational and mental well-being. Results: Results indicated that the intervention decreased depression and loneliness and improved relationships during the intervention period but these changes were not sustained when the intervention ceased. Discussion: Results are encouraging in that evidence-based suggestions can be scaled effectively but additional efforts are required to sustain improvements over time.

期刊介绍： This journal is devoted to the application of theory and research from social psychology toward the better understanding of human adaptation and adjustment, including both the alleviation of psychological problems and distress (e.g., psychopathology) and the enhancement of psychological well-being among the psychologically healthy. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) traditionally defined psychopathology (e.g., depression), common emotional and behavioral problems in living (e.g., conflicts in close relationships), the enhancement of subjective well-being, and the processes of psychological change in everyday life (e.g., self-regulation) and professional settings (e.g., psychotherapy and counseling). Articles reporting the results of theory-driven empirical research are given priority, but theoretical articles, review articles, clinical case studies, and essays on professional issues are also welcome. Articles describing the development of new scales (personality or otherwise) or the revision of existing scales are not appropriate for this journal.
