Clinical Trial Description

Adolescence is a period that involves important transitions and learning opportunities. Adolescents and young people learn and develop new competencies and facets in the digital society. Hence, a large part of their social relationships takes place through social media.This offers them numerous positive opportunities for the emotional and social development of adolescents and young people. They can develop positive interactions through prosocial behaviors, empathy, and social support towards others. At the same time it is not without potential risks, especially in adolescence, a stage of psychological vulnerability for risky behaviors. Very recently, interest in scientific social psychology has grown due to a new approach to interventions, which have been called "wise interventions." This approach involves a set of rigorous techniques, based on theory and research, that address specific psychological processes to help people thrive in various life environments. The main objective of this project is to design and evaluate the effectiveness of a wise intervention based on self-affirmation (SA) and Implicit Theories of Personality (ITP) to promote various online prosocial behaviors (help, empathy, collaboration) and prevent online risk and harassment behaviors (online bullying, sexting, grooming). Secondary objectives are (1) to assess the moderating role of gender and the degree of evolutionary development of adolescents and young people, and (2) to evaluate potential mediating mechanisms for the effectiveness of the interventions. The study will involve the evaluation of the intervention in a sample of around 1000 young and adolescents randomly allocated to experimental and control condition. ;
