Potency and Precision Investigation (PAPI)

An Exploratory Open-Label Potency and Precision Investigation of a Relational Agent Intervention
The overarching goal of this study is to establish initial proof of mechanism for precision interventions in an adult population.

Detailed Description
This exploratory single-arm trial will provide initial learning on the current implementation of precision interventions and generate data and hypotheses to inform the exploration of future interventions by identifying mechanisms and moments in the user journey to target.
The DISC-MA app uses a relational agent (Woebot) to engage users in conversations.
Eligible participants will be assigned to use DISC-MA, in which Woebot selects from a list of responses based on natural language processing.
Participants will receive instructions on downloading and using the DISC-MA app in order to access the intervention.
Participants will use the app as instructed and will complete assessments for the primary endpoint as Week 4 (EOT) with additional measures being collected as Baseline, Week 1, and Week 2. Results from this study will provide data on baseline participant clinical and psychological characteristics and their engagement with DISC-MA, and associations between the two.

Experimental: DISC-MA
All participants will be asked to download and use the DISC-MA study application.
They will have access to the app throughout the 4 week study.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Working Alliance Inventory-Short Revised (WAI-SR), Total Scale
Time Frame: 1 week and Post-treatment at 4 weeks
|
Measure of working alliance.
A 12-item measure 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.
For the purposes of the study, the word "therapist" was replaced with "Woebot".
Total mean scores range from 1-5, with higher scores indicating greater alliance between the participant and Woebot.
