Health Behavior Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Multidomain Approach to Preventing Dementia in African Americans: Cognitive Prescriptions
The goal of this R21 study is to explore the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of individualized cognitive prescriptions (CogRxs) in improving engagement in healthy behaviors and other outcomes in middle-aged AAs and to gain feedback on future implementation of the program.
A pre-post experimental design will be used, in which 150 AA participants aged 50-65 will complete a baseline assessment of cognitive testing and data-driven assessment of deficiencies across five CogRx domains (physical activity, cognitive activity, diet, sleep, social activity). Participants will be randomized to either: psychoeducation + CogRx, psychoeducation only, or no contact control. The psychoeducation and CogRx groups will receive general psychoeducation on dementia prevalence, prognosis, and risk factors, while the CogRx group will also receive personalized information on their risk factor profile and develop a tailored 3-month intervention plan, which will consist of simple evidence-based strategies to implement at home. Motivational reminders as well as adherence and self-efficacy questions will be administered via text-messaging over the 3-months. Participants will return for 3-month and 6-month follow-ups. Specific Aim 1 (proximal outcomes) is to determine whether the CogRx condition is superior to psychoeducation alone in improving engagement in healthy lifestyle behaviors. Specific Aim 2 (distal outcomes) is to compare the three conditions on a brief battery of cognitive and psychological measures. The Exploratory Aim is to gather feedback for future implementation of this program, including cultural considerations, barriers and facilitators to engagement, and likelihood of continuing the program. ;
