研究概览
简要总结
This study aims to analyze the effects of a psychological intervention to promote wellbeing. To do so, a brief intervention is developed to enhance a sense of gratitude through a multiple baseline across components design. Traditional measures will be used together with the incorporation of a novel evaluation methodology such as the EMA, which allows the collection of data in the context of people's daily lives and at different specific times, that is, in real time.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) (Watson, Clark, & Tellegen, 1988; Spanish version: Sandín et al., 1999) at pre-intervention, during the intervention, post-intervention, and 1-month follow-up.
时间窗: Up to 2 months
The PANAS consists of 20 items with a range from 1 (very slightly or not at all) to 5 (extremely). Respondents have to indicate the extent to which they experienced the feeling or emotion during the past few weeks. This scale evaluates two independent dimensions: positive affect and negative affect. The maximum score for each subscale is 50. The scale showed excellent internal consistency (α between .84 and .90) and convergent and discriminant validity. The Spanish version has demonstrated high internal consistency (α = 0.89 and 0.91 for positive affect and negative affect in women, respectively, and α = 0.87 and 0.89 for PA and NA in men, respectively) in college students.
Change in Gratitude Questionnaire 6-item (GQ-6) (McCullough, Emmons, & Tsang, 2001; Spanish version: Magallares, Recio, & Sanjuán, 2018) at pre-intervention, during the intervention, post-intervention, and 1-month follow-up.
时间窗: Up to 2 months
The GQ-5 consists of six items that measure span, frequency, intensity and density of gratitude and primarily focuses on the unidimensional emotional component of gratitude. Participants have to rate six items (e.g., "I have so much in life to be thankful for") on a seven-point Likert scale (GQ-6: α = 0.82)
