Impact of Feedback on Symptoms and Trust/Respect on Outcomes
Conditions
Brief summary
This study will examine the efficacy of a feedback system for providers that tracks patient trust/respect on an ongoing basis and to test the hypothesis that receiving feedback on trust/respect will lead to improvements in patient satisfaction, functioning, symptoms, and trust/respect. .
Detailed description
This is a randomized effectiveness trial in which real-world providers will be given feedback on patient trust/respect. Approximately 40 clinicians, and up to 180 consumers will be enlisted participate in the randomized effectiveness trial. All enrolled patients will complete the BASIS-24, the Satisfaction with Care scale, and the Satisfaction with Social Roles and Activities Scale on handheld tablets or desktop computers at baseline. Patients will be randomized to one of two conditions. Patients in the first condition will attend therapy with clinicians who have received a standard automated outcome report, plus a report that contains information on the patient's trust/respect with suggestions for interventions if low/declining trust/respect is apparent. Patients in the second condition will attend therapy and complete the same measures as patients in the first condition, but their therapists will only receive a standard automated outcome report, without any patient information on trust/respect. At the time of the first therapy appointment and for all remaining therapy appointments, patients will complete four total measures: the new measure of trust/respect, the BASIS-24, the Satisfaction with Care scale, and the Satisfaction with Social Roles and Activities scale.
