This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether carefully designed music playlists can help adults manage stress, anxiety, and depression. Researchers will compare two different approaches to creating playlists: one that gradually shifts your mood by starting with music that matches how you currently feel, and another that immediately introduces uplifting music that contrasts with your current mood. The study will measure whether either approach helps reduce stress and improve your emotional well-being.
Many people struggle with stress, anxiety, and depression, but not everyone wants or can access traditional treatments like therapy or medication. This trial is exploring whether music—something accessible and non-invasive—could become an effective tool to help people manage these common emotional challenges.

You will be randomly assigned to receive one of two types of personalized music playlists or placed on a waiting list. If you receive the music intervention right away, you'll listen to your assigned playlists at home and complete short questionnaires about your stress level, mood, and well-being at regular intervals. Some participants will wait 5 days before starting their playlists. Throughout the study, you'll use simple self-report forms to track how you're feeling.
