    Science-Backed Success: Brain Thrive by 25 Transforms Student Lives

    A groundbreaking study proves the Brain Thrive by 25 program significantly enhances self-esteem, reduces depression, curbs substance use, and boosts decision-making skills in students—aligning with CASEL's SEL framework.
    Read Executive Summary and Major Findings

    The Brain Thrive by 25 program is a behavioral and brain-based intervention designed to enhance social-emotional learning (SEL) and academic outcomes for middle and high school students. This comprehensive curriculum, structured around 12 adaptable modules, integrates neuroscience and SEL principles to improve decision-making, emotional regulation, and academic success. The program emphasizes teaching students about brain health, the impact of substances, stress management, and positive thinking. This study evaluated the program's efficacy using a pretest-posttest design involving 335 students from six schools across the U.S.

    Findings revealed statistically significant improvements in the treatment group compared to the control group in key areas, including self-esteem, depression, substance use (alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs), and brain systems functionality. These outcomes align with CASEL's SEL framework, demonstrating Brain Thrive by 25's effectiveness in fostering self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making.

    The curriculum was well-received by educators, offering flexibility to integrate into existing courses. Positive behavioral outcomes highlight the program's potential as a cost-effective, impactful method for embedding prevention strategies into school systems. Limitations of the study included challenges in controlling external factors and a need for additional replication studies.

    Major Findings

    • Improved SEL Outcomes: Students in the treatment group demonstrated higher levels of self-esteem and reduced depression compared to the control group.
    • Substance Use Reduction: Statistically significant decreases in alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use (ATOD) were observed in the treatment group.
    • Brain Functionality Gains: Enhanced brain system functionality, including better stress management and decision-making skills, was reported.
    • Alignment with SEL Framework: The program supports CASEL's SEL competencies, including self-awareness, self-management, and responsible decision-making.
    • Flexibility in Delivery: Modules are adaptable, allowing integration into various courses, from health to psychology.
    • Teacher-Friendly Materials: Comprehensive training and resources ensured high fidelity in implementation.
    • Positive Perceptions: Students exposed to the curriculum reported more favorable attitudes and behaviors.
    • Prevention-Focused: The curriculum proactively builds protective factors to mitigate behavioral and mental health risks.
    • Broad Applicability: Schools from diverse geographic and demographic contexts successfully implemented the program.
    • Statistically Significant Results: Multivariate analysis confirmed the program's efficacy with medium effect sizes across key variables.
    • Cost-Effectiveness: The program offers a low-cost, scalable solution for improving SEL and academic outcomes.
    • Limitations Noted: The study acknowledged challenges such as external variables and missing data but maintained strong overall reliability.

      This program is a promising intervention for schools aiming to enhance students' social, emotional, and academic well-being through neuroscience-informed strategies.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why should teens and young adults care about brain health?

    Your brain is involved in everything you do and everything you are, including how you think, how you feel, how you act, and how well you get along with other people. Your brain is the key to living the life you want and achieving your goals. Because the brain is still developing until you reach age 25, it is critical to learn to love and optimize your brain as it develops.

    How can an optimized brain help you?

    · Get a job you like

    · Gain confidence to start your own business

    · Think more creatively

    · Persistent Brain

    · Sensitive Brain

    · Cautious Brain

    In this course, you’ll learn how to determine your brain type. Knowing your brain type will help you know more about how you interact with the world, but it will also help you know how to optimize your specific brain to smooth out some of the rough edges in your life and understand what is more likely to make you happy.
