摘要

Educational and health promotion campaigns are strategies that may contribute to alerting the population to health problems and their prevention. DEEP is a psychoeducational intervention that is aimed at assisting Portuguese University Students with a set of tools that may help them get to know the phenomenon of depression as an illness. DEEP is an audiovisual (AV) campaign. This study is intended to assess the impact of the psychoeducational campaign on Portuguese University Students’ knowledge of depression. The methodological framework comprehends 4 phases: validation of data collection tools, recruitment and distribution of groups, DEEP release, follow-up and data analysis. Its target population will be Portuguese University Students.
