Population of Interest for the Study The population interest of the study includes Digital workers from a Premier Digital Tech Institution (PDTI). The population interest of the study includes UK young adults within February/March 2021 (during the third UK nationwide lockdown). The population of interest within the study comprised of adults aged between 18 and 65 years with depression. The study offers an efficient way in which the study can be used to improve the outcomes and facilitate positive findings.
Sample The sample from the study included 41 digital workers who were selected from Premier Digital Tech Institution (PDTI). 8,588 UK young adults, recruited from two British cohorts (born in 1990 and 2000–2002, respectively) 68 adults aged between 18 and 65 years with depression, randomly assigned to either the treatment group or the waitlist group
Sampling Method The study comprised of a Survey targeted to digital workers. The sampling method is important to the attainment of the research outcomes and findings intended for the article. Not explicitly stated, but likely random sampling as a result of the data used within the study. The method signifies and important component that leads to the findings and results.
