Brief Summary: Research suggests that an individuals perceived ability to withstand distressing or upsetting emotions ie distress tolerance DT is a common risk factor across several mental health conditions that commonly emerge during adolescence This study aims to evaluate the acceptability feasibility and initial efficacy of a classroom-based DT skills training program for middle school students This study will also explore associations between changes in DT and internalizing symptoms eg anxiety depression
Detailed Description: A variety of deleterious mental health conditions have their peak age of onset in adolescence including depression and anxiety Distress tolerance DT - defined as the perceived or actual ability to withstand aversive emotional states - has been postulated as a transdiagnostic risk factor across several emotional disorders that typically emerge during adolescence Importantly while there is compelling evidence that DT is associated with emotion dysregulation and symptom severity it is unclear whether modifying DT can reduce future risk for psychopathology in adolescent populations This proposal aims to evaluate the feasibility acceptability and initial efficacy of a classroom-based DT intervention for middle school students Additionally this proposal will examine associations between changes in DT and internalizing symptoms

Primary Objective

To evaluate the acceptability feasibility and efficacy of a classroom-based DT skills training program for middle school students

Secondary Objectives

To examine whether participation in the DT skills training program is associated with lower severity of internalizing symptoms over the course of the academic year
