Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Wise Intervention (Self-affirmation and Incremental theory of personality)

The intervention designed to promote prosocial behavior and reduce online risks is based on four general types of change strategies: (1) scientific knowledge, (2) generation of new meanings, (3) commitment through action, and (4) active reflection. It includes two components: a self-affirmation activity and an ITP intervention. The SA component includes a list of values so that they could choose the two or three most important for them. Next, they are asked to write why those selected values are the most important to them. The ITP component includes activities such as reading scientific information about social behavior and its role in people's well-being, the meaning and value of online risk behaviors through stories and videos of the experiences of other young people of their age, and self-persuasion exercises that involve an active commitment to change.

BEHAVIORAL

Standard preventive intervention

It consists of an educational intervention that provides a number of strategies to manage everyday conflicts among adolescents. This intervention teaches them new ways to manage these difficulties through different actions (relaxation, distraction, sports, etc.). Finally, they are asked to plan the strategies they will use in the future in the face of some difficulties and to recommend some guidelines for another adolescent who may be going through a similar situation.
