简要总结
The goal of this trial to test if a web-based psychoeducation will work in improving depression help-seeking intention and behavior among antenatal women with probable depression in Eswatini. The main question it aims to answer is:
• Does the web-based psychoeducation improve depression help-seeking intention and help-seeking behavior in antenatal women with probable depressive symptoms?
Researchers will compare this web-based psychoeducation to a waitlist control, to see if the program works in improving depression help-seeking intention and behavior during pregnancy.
- The psychoeducation program will have a total of 4 sessions, which will be given to participants over a two-week period. two sessions will be delivered each week.
- Participants will be asked questions before the intervention starts, immediately the intervention ends as well as after a month of completing the intervention.

Help-seeking Intention
时间窗: Baseline; Immediately post intervention; follow-up at 1 month post intervention
General Help Seeking Questionnaire - This 9 item scale adopted a 3 point Likert scale (Unlikely, maybe, Likely) to measure help-seeking intention. The total score is computed by summing up all item scores, where a higher score indicates higher help-seeking intention. The total possible score ranges from 9 to 27.
