Late adolescence and early adulthood are the most exposed to trauma. College students exposed to trauma may experience depression, anxiety, stress, and difficulties adapting to college life. Depression symptoms are the most common reactions that people experience after traumatic experiences. Depression also harms college students reactions that people experience after traumatic experiences. It is difficult for people who are depressed to meet their social function. Trauma also has adverse physical effects, including dysfunction of the hypothalamus and adrenal axis, lowering blood cortisol levels. As a result, the body's immune system is disturbed, leaving people more exposed to diseases and experiencing more pain and fatigue. In particular, women are more vulnerable to PTSD than men. Women with post-traumatic stress and depression are also more likely to be exposed to several diseases. Moreover, when traumatized female college students experience life stress, it worsens their mental health and interferes with their studies. Cognitive behavioral therapy is the most effective content composition method for trauma intervention. CBT should be improved by helping to reduce PTSS and depression and managing various aspects of life, such as nutrition, activity, and rest. One major advantage of online programs is that they do not face any time or space constraints, and they are also less expensive than face-to-face programs. More importantly, online programs can reduce psychological barriers to participation. This is especially important for women who are more likely to feel shame and stigma about interpersonal traumas, such as those arising from relationships and sexual trauma, which are obstacles to their access to face-to-face programs. College students can easily access online programs because of their familiarity with the Internet, so the programs can be immediately available in response to crises without requiring them to expose personal information to unfamiliar therapists. In this study, the interventions program was based on the Roy Adaptation Model to address post-traumatic physical and mental health problems among female college students in Korea. Hypothesis - The post-traumatic stress scores, depressive symptom scores of participants who access the program will decrease more than those who do not. - The functional health scores, college adaptation scores of participants who access the program will increase more than those who do not.
