Study Summary

The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and mechanisms of change of two self-help books for college student mental health in a randomized controlled trial. One book is based on mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and one is based on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). This study will test the following hypotheses: 1. The ACT and MBSR books will both be feasible and acceptable with college students as evidenced by equivalently high satisfaction and engagement rates. 2. The ACT and MBSR books will be equally effective in improving mental health and well-being among college students. 3. The ACT book will produce larger improvements in valued action, and the MBSR book will produce larger improvements in mindfulness. 4. Valued action will be a stronger predictor of improvements in mental health in the ACT condition and mindfulness will be a stronger predictor of improvements in the mindfulness condition.
