The purpose of this study was to implement and assess an educational intervention for nursing students pertaining to perinatal depression (PD) screening and treatment. A single group (n = 59), repeated-measures design (i.e., pre- and post-intervention assessments) was used to assess the impact of an online intervention. Demographics, Theory of Planned Behavior constructs, intention to screen and treat PD, and PD-related knowledge were tested. The intervention resulted in positive gains in PD-related perceived behavioral control (PBC), attitudes, subjective norms, knowledge, intention to screen and treat PD, and perceived importance of screening and treating PD from pre- to post-intervention. PBC demonstrated a small-to-moderate positive association with perceived importance of screening and treating PD at post-intervention. Results from the current study suggest that the PD online educational intervention is effective in improving participants' PD-related PBC, attitudes, subjective norms, knowledge, and intention to screen and treat PD.
