Evaluation of a Resiliency Intervention for Siblings of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) (SibChat)
The proposed research has the following objectives:
Based off findings from the "Development of a Resiliency Program for Siblings of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder" qualitative focus group study (protocol 2019P002284), the aim is to determine the feasibility and acceptability, of an 8-session Relaxation Response Resiliency (SibChat) program for siblings of children with ASD.
We primarily aim to test the preliminary effectiveness of a pilot waitlist controlled trial on improving resiliency and stress coping, This will be assessed by comparing Baseline-3 mo. scores on primary and secondary outcome measures between the Immediate and Waitlist control groups.
Among participants randomized to both conditions, we secondarily aim to investigate the extent of pre-post changes in primary and secondary outcomes. Among immediate condition group only, we also aim to assess whether end-of-treatment (3 mo. post enrollment) improvements will be sustained at 6-mo. post enrollment.

メジャーの説明 |
時間枠 |
|---|---|---|
|
Feasibility assessed by the number participants enrolled.
時間枠:6 months
|
We will assess study feasibility based on number of participants enrolled in the study (target N=40)
|
6 months
|
|
Feasibility assessed by the number SibChat-3RP of sessions attended
時間枠:8 weeks
|
Whether youth attended at least 5 out of 8 total program sessions.
|
8 weeks
|
|
Feasibility assessed by the survey retention post intervention.
時間枠:6 months
|
Among participants randomized to both conditions, feasibility is assessed by the number of participants who completed the T2 and T3 surveys, 3 months and 6 months post baseline, respectively.
|
6 months
|
|
Acceptability assessed using the participant feedback survey
時間枠:3 months
|
The participant feedback survey is a questionnaire made up of likert scales and open ended questions designed to record acceptability of the SibChat-3RP program on topics including length of sessions, number of sessions, and virtual delivery.
|
3 months
|
|
Acceptability assessed by relaxation response adherence
時間枠:3 months
|
Among participants randomized to both conditions, relaxation response adherence is measured at T1, T2 and T3.
Relaxation response adherence is a 1-item likert scale that indicates how often participants practice relaxation response exercises.
Acceptability is determined based on whether participants indicate that they practice relaxation response exercises at least bimonthly 3 months post intervention.

|
Effectiveness of trial on improving stress coping ability (assessed using Measure of Current Status-A)
時間枠:3 months
|
Measure of Current Status-A is a questionnaire - the score on the questionnaire is used to indicate stress coping ability.
A change in score indicates a change in indicated stress coping ability.
Comparison of intervention and wait list control 3 months after baseline (T1).

|
Effectiveness of trial on improving resiliency (assessed using Current Experiences Scale)
時間枠:3 months
|
Current experiences Scale is a questionnaire.
Improved resiliency is measured base upon change in questionnaire score.
Comparison of intervention and wait list control 3 months after baseline (T1).

|
Pre-post intervention changes as measured by change in primary outcome scores of resiliency and stress coping.
時間枠:3 months
|
Among participants randomized to both conditions, pre-post intervention changes in primary outcome scores of resiliency and stress coping will be assessed using the scores from the questionnaire (includes all primary outcome scores indicated above).
|
3 months
|
|
Sustained improvements in primary outcomes of resiliency and stress coping as measured by sustained change in primary outcome scores.
時間枠:3 months
|
Among immediate condition group only, assess whether end-of-treatment (3 mo.
post enrollment) improvements in primary outcome scores (resiliency and stress coping indicated above; collected using a questionnaire) will be sustained at 6-mo.
post enrollment.
