Summary

The effect of tele-psychoeducation based on an online social media platform, which had never been done previously, on problem-solving skills and stress levels in young adults was investigated. A randomized, single-blind factorial trial was conducted with two groups of 54 university students who met the inclusion criteria. Cognitive behavioural based psychoeducation was carried on via Instagram's both online and asynchronized sessions for 8 weeks. Data were collected using pre-/posttest and follow-up measurements with the Problem-Solving Inventory and Perceived Stress Scale and were analysed using factorial analysis of variance. ηp2 and Cohen's r was used, which shows the effect size with variance distribution.

digitalized group psychoeducation

Problem Solving Approach based problem solving skills psychoeducation's session topics of eight weeks are as follows: 1. Introduction and warm-up, 2. Problem orientation-identifying the problem, 3. Identifying prior problems-Which do I want to start from? 4. Recognizing the losses caused by problems and complaints, 5. Setting reachable and realistic goals, 6. Generating alternatives -What can I do? 7. Regulating emotions, 8. Experimenting and exploring. The main outcomes of each session were determined, and sessions were completed in approximately one hour as a semi-structured interactive group training according to group dynamics. Three days a week for eight weeks, informative posts were shared, asynchronous testing and self-discovery activities were carried out, and a synchronous tele-psychoeducation session was held once a week. Participants were connected to the live broadcast of the research team and interacted via text messages.
