Abstract
This pre-registered randomized control trial (n=877) compared messages about depression as a functional signal with a message about depression as a disease with known risk factors. Framing depression as a signal revealed positive impacts on stigma, offset efficacy, and beliefs about depression, with larger effects among females.
