About

This study will examine the impact of a mobile app (JOOL) focused on promoting purposeful living on student health behaviors, academic performance, self-regulation, well-being, resiliency, and self-efficacy.

Full description

Participants will be recruited from a large undergraduate classroom. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two conditions and asked to complete either online reflections or engage with a mobile app over the course of the semester. Students who elect to not participate will be provided an alternate assignment to complete, to be coordinated by their teaching assistant. Participants will additionally be asked to complete (1) a pre-survey, (2) post-survey, and follow-up survey 14 days after the class concludes. The study will examine changes in health-related behaviors, resiliency, well-being, and self-efficacy reported between the start and conclusion of semester/study.
