Singularities Game

Singularities is a theory-based, community-informed, web-accessible, roleplaying game-based intervention incorporating 4 primary components: fostering healthy identity development in a safe environment; encouraging help-seeking behaviors; encouraging use of productive coping; alcohol-harm reduction; and encouraging healthy internet and social media use.

BEHAVIORAL

Food4Thought

Food4Thought is an attention control condition in which we provide participants with similar amounts of research team contact and program contact as the intervention. Participants will play the game Pick Your Plate! A Global Guide to Nutrition, developed by the Smithsonian Science Education Center. Participants are instructed to build healthy meals using cuisine from around the world while ensuring they stick to a budget and meet all their nutritional needs. Food4Thought will be delivered via Qualtrics.
