Summary

The investigators want to understand the impact of a short online single session programme to improve well-being. Therefore, the investigators are investigating a self-help mental health intervention composed of four distinct modules, all designed to be completed within a single, 60-minute online session.Any university student in the UK can take part. Participants are randomly allocated to either:

1. Complete the COMET programme (lasting about 60 minutes) and to practice the skills learned over the next few weeks. Participants are asked to fill out online questionnaires (10-15 minutes) at two points in the future: two weeks from baseline, and four weeks from baseline.

Or
2. Complete a few extra online questionnaires (lasting about 20-30 minutes), and fill out brief questionnaires (10-15 minutes) two weeks and four weeks later. After filling out the questionnaires in four weeks time, participants will then have the opportunity to complete the COMET programme (lasting about 60 minutes).
