An Iteratively Adapted Transdiagnostic Prevention Program for Diverse High School Settings (U-PEACE): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Despite many adolescents experiencing mental health concerns, a substantial portion lack access to evidence-based treatments (EBTs) for psychopathology; this issue is magnified for adolescents belonging to communities considered marginalized. One way to ameliorate this is by adapting existent EBTs-typically delivered in research settings-so that they are feasible and scalable in adolescent settings, such as high schools. The Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Adolescents may be particularly suited for this purpose due to its transdiagnostic, modular approach and its focus on adolescent clients.

Objective

This study aimed to iteratively adapt and implement the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorder
