- findings
- Primary depression outcome did not differ. Wellbeing and help-seeking intentions improved; anxiety, social efficacy and social support did not.
- limitations
- Mostly girls, younger than target, self-report, inactive comparator; intentions are not actual help-seeking.
- harms And Attrition
- Not systematically extracted beyond findings/limitations; absence of reporting is not evidence of no harm
- lab Relevance
- relationship
- limits
- implication
- Include social and referral outcomes directly rather than assume a relationship app improves connection.
- transfer Limit
- Component evidence does not establish efficacy of the combined Universal Mind lab model.
