Inspiration
Most of the mental health quizzes that we have today are geared towards adults. That's why we created this quiz directly made for college and high school students.
What it does
This website gives a list of current psychologists in the Chicago area and gives the user a quiz so that they can answer questions pertaining to their level of stress. Those results are used to recommend a psychologist.
How I built it
The website was built using Bootstrap, while the quiz was a combination of Javascript, CSS, and HTML. The quiz was built using a series of if statements, textboxes, and for loops to generate the results and recommended list of psychologists.
Challenges I ran into
There was debate about whether there should be four separate functions for college students and high school students with short and long term stress. I overcame this challenge by storing the information of a student into a variable, such as whether they were a high school student or college student. I used that information to make an if-else statement that pertained directly to them.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We were able to create a fully functioning web application in under 24 hours. We also made the website look neat without a lot of extra clutter.
What I learned
We learned what Bootstrap was and used it to create our website today.
What's next for Pair with a Psychologist
Obviously, we want to make the website so that it recommends psychologists all over America given the location of a student. Given the time limit, we could not achieve this goal. We also want to send an email of the results to the actual psychologist so that they can accurately tell what disorder a student is suffering from.
