Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Intervention Attendance8-weeks while completing the interventionHow many hours of intervention sessions an individual attended

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
DepressionUp to 3 months before intervention, immediately following intervention, one month after interventionChange in depression scores from the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), where higher scores indicate higher levels of depression with a range of 0 to 80.
AnxietyUp to 3 months before intervention, immediately following intervention, one month after interventionChange in anxiety assessed using the Generalized anxiety disorder 7-item scale (GAD-7).
Medication AdherenceUp to 3 months before intervention, immediately following intervention, one month after interventionChange in medication adherence assessed using the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale. A higher score indicates higher adherence with a range of 0 to 8.
