Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| We hypothesize that the sports-intervention is applicable and flexible for the target group, that its effects can be measured in a multiple baseline single-case design using the chosen outcome measures, and that the current approach will lead to a sufficient number of participants. This will be examined by: 1) evaluating and improving the intervention protocol as assessed by the opinions and feedback of various stakeholders (participants, psychomotor therapists, clinicians), 2) exploring the parameters that are needed for the larger intervention study, by assessing referrals, adherence to treatment and drop-out, and 3) exploring the suitability of outcome parameters in detecting effects of change, examining the experience sampling methodology for the larger intervention study. | — |
