Abstract: Graduate students face a stressful transition to the job market, a national mental health crisis, and ongoing racial and gender bias. The CSU Graduate School (CSU-GS) and the qCMB program are particularly concerned with decreased well-being and increased mental health issues among graduate students, which have only worsened in both frequency and severity with COVID-19. CSU's most recently analyzed National College Health Assessment Survey (NCHAS) from Fall 2019 along with a more recent CSU Graduate Student Experience Survey (CSU-GSES) from Fall 2020, after the start of COVID-19, indicated a broad need for interventions around well-being and mental health for CSU graduate students. Some students enter graduate school with existing mental health issues, while many have the potential to experience a new mental health crisis during their graduate career. Proactive intervention around building resilience and psychological well- being skills will benefit all of these students and has the added benefit of reducing the need for counseling. CSU has a number of proactive mental health and well-being resources available to graduate students but their impact is limited due to constraints on the availability of time to participate. This resulted in our conclusion that any intervention needs to be integrated within the regular requirements of graduate students to increase participation and uptake of information. Thus, our proposed intervention is to develop a well-being skills builder module for virtual delivery that is compatible with the online course delivery system used at CSU. This well- being skills builder module will be developed such that it can be included in a regular course shell with other course materials or used on its own. It will be asynchronous and self-facilitated so faculty implementing the module do not need specific mental health expertise. Participants will complete a short growth mindset and self-efficacy activity. Students will then choose an additional three components to complete. The ability to self- select relevant skills to develop will give students agency, despite the required nature of the activity, and will allow students to tailor skill development to their needs. Clear information on counseling access will be provided within the module for students who recognize a need for these services. The goals of the module are to build well-being skills proactively and encourage meaningful interaction with, and use of well-being and mental health resources as needed during the student's career. Module components will include: 1) Self- efficacy and Growth Mindset, 2) Maintaining effective communication, 3) Aligning expectations, 4) Conflict resolution, and 5) Diversity, inclusion, and belonging, along with the following components are available on Silver Cloud and already funded for use by CSU: 1) Space for Resilience, 2) Space from Stress, 3) Space for Body Image, 4) Space for Social Anxiety, 5) Space for Sleep, 6) Space from Depression, and 7) Space from Anxiety.

抽象的： 研究生面临向就业市场，国家心理健康危机和持续的压力过渡 种族和性别偏见。 CSU研究生院（CSU-GS）和QCMB计划尤其是 关注研究生的健康状况下降和增加心理健康问题的问题 COVID-19仅在频率和严重程度上都恶化。 CSU最近分析的国家 2019年秋季的大学健康评估调查（NCHAS）以及最近的CSU研究生 Covid-19开始后，从2020年秋季开始的经验调查（CSU-GSE）表明对 CSU研究生的福祉和心理健康的干预措施。一些学生进入毕业生 患有现有心理健康问题的学校，虽然许多人有可能体验新的心理健康 他们的研究生生涯中的危机。围绕建筑弹性和心理健康的积极干预 成为技能将使所有这些学生受益，并带来减少咨询需求的额外好处。 CSU有许多主动的心理健康和福祉资源可供研究生，但 由于对参与时间的限制，它们的影响受到限制。这得出了我们的结论 任何干预措施都需要集成到研究生的常规要求中以增加 信息的参与和吸收。因此，我们建议的干预措施是开发良好技能建设者 虚拟交付的模块与CSU使用的在线课程交付系统兼容。这个 成为技能构建器模块将被开发，以便可以与其他其他课程壳一起包含在常规课程中 课程材料或单独使用。这将是异步和自我启发的，因此要实施的教师 模块不需要特定的心理健康专业知识。参与者将完成短期的心态，并 自我效能活动。然后，学生将选择另外三个组件以完成。自我的能力 选择发展的相关技能将为学生代理，尽管活动的性质需要 允许学生根据自己的需求来量身定制技能发展。有关咨询访问的明确信息将是 在模块中为认识这些服务需要的学生提供。模块的目标是 积极建立福祉技能，并鼓励与幸福感和使用的有意义的互动和使用 学生职业生涯中需要根据需要的心理健康资源。模块组件将包括：1）自我 功效和成长心态，2）保持有效的沟通，3）保持期望，4）冲突 分辨率以及5）多样性，包容性和归属，以及以下组成部分 银云，已经由CSU资助：1）弹性空间，2）压力下的空间，3） 身体形象，4）社交焦虑空间，5）睡眠空间，6）抑郁症的空间，以及7）空间 焦虑。
