Building resilience through socio-emotional training

ReSet Team picture

The ReSet Project will develop and test a new school-based preventative mental health intervention for adolescents. It will target two closely interlinked mechanisms that are fundamental to both resilience and vulnerability to mental health problems in adolescence; emotion processing skills & social relationships.

Good emotion skills (including recognizing the emotions of others or of oneself and controlling or managing one’s emotions) and positive social relationships are both crucial factors in positive mental health. We want to find out if training these skills in unison is a better way to promote and protect young people’s mental health and well being.

As well as working alongside experts in the field, a fundamental part of our study is that adolescents play a key role in the design and delivery of the training programme.
