Conditions: Depression and/or Anxiety Symptoms
Interventions: Meaning-centered intervention for individuals who tend to feel down or anxious
Young adults who experience depression and/or anxiety symptoms (i.e., internalizing symptoms) will be randomly allocated to a six-session meaning-centered intervention condition or a waitlist condition. Both conditions receive the same questionnaires at baseline, post assessment (intervention condition: immediately after the final session; waitlist: four weeks after baseline), and follow-up. The researchers hypothesize that a meaning-centered intervention for individuals with internalizing symptoms will increase participants' meaning in life and reduce their internalizing symptoms at post assessment and 4-week follow-up when compared to a waitlist condition.
