Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intervention group
The group will receive the ecological momentary intervention (CUIDA-TE APP).
This intervention will allow the individual to learn and practice adaptive ways to regulate their emotions.
The protocol contains the following components: Distraction, acceptation skills, re-appraisal and problem-solving skills.
|
During 2 months participants will be able to asses their mood and practice in real time their emotional regulation skills with an ecological momentary interventions APP.
Other Names:
|
No Intervention: Control group
This condition is a waiting list control group with no intervention.
The participants will wait for a period of 3 months.
They will be offered the possibility of receiving the intervention APP (CUIDA-TE) after the waiting list period.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Assess change in Brief Patient Health Questionnaire Mood Scale (PHQ-9)
Time Frame: Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
The PHQ-9 assess depression construct and includes nine items: (1) anhedonia; (2) depressed mood; (3) trouble sleeping; (4) feeling tired; (5) change in appetite; (6) guilt, self-blame, or worthlessness; (7) trouble concentrating; (8) feeling slowed down or restless; and (9) thoughts of being better off dead or hurting oneself.
PHQ-9 score can range from 0 to 27, since each of the 9 items can be scored from 0 (not at all) to 3 (nearly every day).
The PHQ-9 score is divided in the following severity categories: 5-9 (mild depression), 10-14 (modera depression), 15-19 (moderately severe depression) and 20 or greater (severe depression).
|
Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
Assess change in Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ)
Time Frame: Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
A 10-item scale designed to measure respondents' tendency to regulate their emotions in two ways: (1) Cognitive Reappraisal and (2) Expressive Suppression.
Respondents answer each item on a 7-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree).
High score indicates more likely to use this kind of emotion regulation strategies (Reappraisal Items: 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10; Suppression Items: 2, 4, 6, 9).
|
Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
Assess change in Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS)
Time Frame: Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
The DERS is a 36-item self-report measure of six facets of emotion regulation.
Spanish validated version (Hervás & Jódar, 2008) has 28-items rated on a scale of 1 to 5. Higher scores indicate more difficulty in emotion regulation.
|
Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
Assess change in Brief Resilience Scale (BRS)
Time Frame: Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
The BRS is a 6-item self-report measure to assess the ability to bounce back or recover from stress.
The items are rated on a 5-point scale (1 = strongly disagree; 5 = strongly agree).
Range from 6 (low resilience) to 30 (high resilience).
|
Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
Assess change in Burnout
Time Frame: Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
Three items for assessing burnout in medical professionals.
Higher score indicate more perceived burnout.
|
Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
Assess change in ProQOL-V
Time Frame: Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
The ProQOL (Professional Quality of Life Scale) was developed as a measure of both the negative and positive effects of working with those who have experienced traumatic stress.
The ProQOL has sub-scales for compassion satisfaction, burnout, and compassion fatigue.The responses are rated on 5-point scale, indicating the frequency of each item in the last 30 days (1 = never, 2 = rarely, 3= Sometimes, 4= Often and 5 = Very Often).
Higher scores on the compassion satisfaction scale represent a greater satisfaction related to the ability of the professional to be an effective caregiver in his/her job.
Higher scores on the burnout scale mean a higher risk for burnout and higher scores in secondary traumatic stress indicate the professional is higher exposed to traumatic events.
|
Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
Assess in usability with the System Usability Scale
Time Frame: At 2 months (post intervention)
|
The System Usability Scale (SUS; Brooke, 1996) is a reliable, 10-item questionnaire that assess the usability of a technology application.
The items are rated from 1 ("Strongly disagree") to 5 ("Strongly agree").
The scale is corrected with a formula that allows to obtain scores between 0 -100 points.
Unacceptable usability (with SUS scores below 50) could indicate that a user had difficulties while using the program and could be interpreted as a barrier for the clinical effect.
|
At 2 months (post intervention)
|
Assess change in Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale (OASIS)
Time Frame: Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
The OASIS is a 5-item self-report measure to assess anxiety severity and impairment
|
Change from baseline(PRE), at 2 months (post intervention)and at 3 months (follow-up)
|
