研究概览
简要总结
The aim of this study is to analyze the efficacy of several variations of an already validated Positive Psychology Intervention (PPI) called Best Possible Self, using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in general population. Participants are randomly assigned to one of 4 conditions: BPS PAST condition, BPS PRESENT condition, BPS FUTURE condition, and CONTROL condition (daily activities).
详细描述
Intervention lasts 7 days. Participants come to the laboratory the first day, they fill up assessment questionnaires and practice the assigned exercise. Then, they practice the assigned exercise for 6 more days at home.
The main hypothesis is that all three experimental conditions will enhance wellbeing comparing to the control condition.

研究组 & 干预措施
BPS PAST
Participants write down about themselves in a past when they displayed their best self. Then, they make a video with this text and a chosen song, watch the video and then they visualize (imagine) the content.
干预措施: BPS PAST (Behavioral)
BPS PRESENT
Participants write down about themselves in in the present, focusing on what currently makes the best version of themselves (skills, features...). Then, they make a video with this text and a chosen song, watch the video and then they visualize (imagine) the content.
干预措施: BPS PRESENT (Behavioral)
BPS FUTURE
Participants write down about themselves in the future after everything has gone as well as it possibly could. Then, they make a video with this text and a chosen song, watch the video and then they visualize (imagine) the content.
This is the original BPS exercise (already validated in other studies).
干预措施: BPS FUTURE (Behavioral)
CONTROL
Participants write down the activities they did during the last 24 hours. Then, they visualize (imagine) the content. They practice the visualization exercise for 7 consecutive days.
干预措施: CONTROL (Behavioral)
