Healthy Minds Comparison Study

Psychological distress will be computed as a composite of the PROMIS Depression and PROMIS Anxiety measures. We will use the computer adaptive version of both measures which have a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. A composite will be computed by average across T-scores. T-scores range from 10 to 90 with higher scores indicating higher depression or anxiety.
