A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial of an Intervention for Adults With Depression: the eMotion Study.
A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial of a Web-based Intervention Using Behavioral Activation and Physical Activity for Adults With Depression: the eMotion Study.
研究概览
详细说明
A randomised controlled trial (RCT) design will be used in this study. 120 participants experiencing depressive symptoms (>10 on the PHQ-8) over the age of 18 will be recruited from the community. Participants will be eligible to participate if the over 18, score over 10 on the PHQ-8 and, are able to walk unaided for at least 5 minutes and have access to the internet. Following baseline measures, participants will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to the intervention or waiting list control arm and be followed up at 2 and 5 months. Those randomised to the intervention arm will receive eMotion which is comprised of a series of weekly audio visual modules designed to increase exposure to positive activities and physical activity. Main outcomes of interest include recruitment, retention, fidelity and acceptability. Baseline and follow up measures will also include the PHQ-8, and objective (GENEActvie accelerometers) and subjective (IPAQ) measures of physical activity. A parallel process evaluation will run alongside the RCT.
If effective, this intervention has the potential to improve depressive symptoms in a wide range of hard to reach people in the community and increase their physical activity. Further evaluation in a full scale RCT is planned pending results of this trial.

实验性的:eMotion intervention
Subjects randomised to the intervention arm will receive eMotion for two months.
eMotion is comprised of a series of weekly audio visual modules designed to increase exposure to positive activities and physical activity.

无干预:Waiting list control
Subjects in the waiting list control group will be given no intervention for two months; the control group will then be able to access eMotion if they wish but this will not form part of the research project

Depression
大体时间:Two months
|
Depression will be measured using tThe Personal Health Questionnaire (PHQ-8).
The PHQ-8 is an 8 item measure used to measure the frequency of depressive symptoms.
This is a freely available brief self-report questionnaire which assesses depressive symptoms based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM-IV).
Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 3 with a maximum score of 24.
It has been shown to have good validity, reliability, sensitivity and specificity.
It has also been shown to discriminate between levels of major and major severe depression being 10-19, and 20-23 respectively (Kroenke et al., 2009)

Objective Physical Activity
大体时间:Two months
|
Objective physical activity will be assessed using GeneACTIVE wrist worn accelerometers.
The accelerometer is a small wrist worn device that measures and records acceleration.
1 minute epochs will be used to measure movement, with higher counts per minute reflecting higher levels of physical activity as recommended in previous studies (Helgadóttir, Forsell, & Ekblom, 2015; Mailey et al., 2010).

Anxiety
大体时间:Two months
|
General Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) is a 7 item scale which measures symptoms and severity of anxiety based on the DSM-IV criteria and included in the minimum IAPT data set (Spitzer, Kroenke, Williams, & Lowe, 2006).
|
Two months
|
|
Affective Mood State
大体时间:Two months
|
Ecological Momentary Assessment of Mood (EMA) will be taken using a one item 10 point scale asking the participant to rate their mood where 1 = sad and 10 = happy.
This will be taken twice per day randomly over five days during baseline data collection and at two months follow up using 'Text local', a text messaging service which allows participants to respond with a number response indicating their current mood at that point in time.
This approach is adapted from previous research (van Rijsbergen, Bockting, Berking, Koeter, & Schene, 2012).

Self-reported physical activity
大体时间:Two months
|
Self-reported physical activity will be measured using the short-form IPAQ which measures Minutes per week of moderate to vigorous physical activity will be assessed by using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ).
The IPAQ is a valid cross national measure of self-reported physical activity (Craig et al., 2003).

Fidelity of enactment
大体时间:Two months
|
Fidelity of enactment will be measured by asking participants in all groups if they have carried out specific behaviour change techniques relating to physical activity, and behavioural activation along with rating confidence.

Participant satisfaction
大体时间:Two months
|
The Client Satisfaction Questionnaire - Short Form (CSQ-SF).
This is a 4 item measure which will be used to assess participant satisfaction in eMotion 2 months post randomization.

Participant views of intervention
大体时间:Two months
|
Qualitative interviews after the final intervention session, all participants who receive eMotion will be invited to participate in a semi structured interview over the phone.
The purpose of this is to further examine the acceptability of the intervention and any suggestions for improvement which can be absorbed into a next trial.
