Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-Consumption (AUDIT-C) From Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
The AUDIT-C is a widely used 3-item self-report screen for hazardous or harmful alcohol consumption that is based off of the 10-item original AUDIT.
The AUDIT-C is scored on a scale of 0-12 (scores of 0 reflect no alcohol use).
In men, a score of 4 or more is considered positive; in women, a score of 3 or more is considered positive.
Generally, the higher the AUDIT-C score, the more likely it is that the patient's drinking is affecting his/her health and safety.
|
Change from Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Change in The Drug Abuse Screening Test 10 (DAST-10) From Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
The DAST-10 is a brief, 10-item self-report assesses consequences related to drug abuse, excluding alcohol and tobacco.
The range is 0-10, where higher scores indicate greater severity.
|
Change from Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Change in Number of Days Substance Use From Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Change from Baseline and Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
The number of days a substance was used the past 30 days
|
Change from Baseline and Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
The Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8) at Post-treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
The CSQ-8 is an 8-item self-report scale measuring satisfaction with treatment.
Scores from 8 to 32, with higher values indicating higher satisfaction.
|
Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Usage Rating Profile Intervention (URPI) - Acceptability at Post-treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
URPI-Acceptability Subscale is 6-item subscale from the URP Intervention Revised (URP-IR) scale.
The URPI-Acceptability inquires about intervention acceptability.
Responses range from 1= "slightly disagree" to 6="strongly agree".
Scores are averages, with greater scores indicating greater intervention acceptability.
|
Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Usage Rating Profile Intervention (URPI) - Feasibility at Post-treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
URPI-Feasibility Subscale is 6-item subscale from the URP Intervention Revised (URP-IR) scale.
The URPI-Feasibility inquires about factors that impact treatment usage (i.e., intervention quality).
Responses range from 1= "slightly disagree" to 6="strongly agree".
Scores are averages, with greater scores indicating greater intervention feasibility.
|
Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Change From Working Alliance Inventory (WAI-SR) From Mid-treatment at 4 Weeks to Post-treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Change from Mid-treatment at 4 weeks to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Measure of working alliance.
A measure of therapeutic alliance that assesses three key aspects of the therapeutic alliance: (a) agreement on the tasks of therapy, (b) agreement on the goals of therapy and (c) development of an affective bond.
Scores range from 15-60, with higher scores indicating greater alliance.
The present study utilized the validated 12-item Short-Revised version (WAI-SR) with minor changes to language, replacing "therapist" with "Woebot".
|
Change from Mid-treatment at 4 weeks to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Change Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-8) From Baseline to Post-Treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Post-Treatment at 8 weeks
|
Measure of depression severity.
Total score between 0-27, where higher scores indicate greater levels of depression.
|
Change from Baseline to Post-Treatment at 8 weeks
|
Change Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) From Baseline to Post-Treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Post-Treatment at 8 weeks
|
Measure of anxiety.
Total score between 0-21, where higher scores indicate greater levels of anxiety.
|
Change from Baseline to Post-Treatment at 8 weeks
|
Change Brief Situational Confidence Questionnaire (BSCQ) From Baseline to Post-Treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
The 8-item BSCQ is a state dependent measure that assesses self-confidence to resist the urge to drink heavily or use drugs in a variety of situations.
Each of the 8 scale situations consists of a 100-mm line, anchored by 0% ("not at all confident") and 100% ("totally confident") where clients are asked to indicate confidence on a scale from 0% to 100%.
Higher scores are associated with greater confidence.
|
Change from Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Change Pain Rating From Baseline to Post-Treatment at 8 Weeks
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
|
Range from 0-100 (no pain to worst pain imaginable).
|
Change from Baseline to Post-treatment at 8 weeks
