简要总结
Positive psychology interventions use positive psychology techniques to identify meaning and value in life events to raise positive feelings and emotions. Application of PPIs has steadily increased in clinical and non-clinical samples. However, that meta-analysis did not include any study in a Chinese population, and it remains unclear whether PPIs are applicable in the Hong Kong Chinese context.

A convenience sample of 120 patients age 13 to 17 years with no cognitive and/or behavioral problem(s) will be recruited in secondary school around Kwai Chung Estate Participants will be randomized into experimental and control group.
