Abstract
This research tests the efficacy of online well-being interventions. Participants were randomly assigned to an experimental or placebo condition. We predicted a modest, statistically significant well-being increase in the treatment group relative to control, which could help pave the way for expanding the accessibility of well-being through online interventions. Ultimately, however, well-being did not differ by condition.
