Development and formative evaluation of a Web-based stress management program to promote psychological well-being
Open accessAbstract
Objective : The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate the feasibility of a web-based stress management program to promote psychological well-being. Methods : This study was based on a single group (N=28 (male :15, female : 13), age =35.8±9.9, white-collar workers), pre-, post-test design. The evaluation measures include participants'perceived evaluation of the program, such as its comprehensiveness, informativeness, interestingness, as well as degeree of intention to act and self-efficacy belief. Participants'psychological well-being and mental health were measured pre (T1) -and post (T2) -intervention. All measures were conducted on the web. Results : Participant evaluation of the program was positive, and these results appear to confirm the feasibility of using web-based stress management programs. High 'intention to act' and 'self-efficacy belief' were reported, and these measures positively correlated with post-intervention psychological well-being after the intervention (P<.01). Program primary outcome, psychological wellbeing increased positively (T1=189.5±32.6, T2=195.6±31.6, P<.01), and among secondary outcomes, only STAT-state was improved (T1=41.8±10.4, T2=38.1±12.3, P<.05), but no significant difference was found for CRS-D, psychosomatic symptoms, and job satisfaction. Conclusion : Web-based stress management program for the enhancement of personal psychological well-being are feasible, and participants'perceived 'intention to act' and 'self-efficacy beliefs' were important exposures that influenced outcome. Further evaluation of the effectiveness of web based stress management programs requires controlled trials using larger samples with more varied demographics and investigation of program efficacy in longer-term follow-up.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
