The goal of the clinical trial is to test whether a mental health program that is delivered through the Internet works well for healthy children and adolescents with siblings with cystic fibrosis (CF). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the program improve the mental health and quality of life of healthy siblings? - Does the program improve the relationship between healthy children and adolescents and their sibling with CF? - Does the program help healthy siblings learn about CF? Participants will: - Fill out an online survey asking questions about their family and mental health before the program - Complete the online mental health program over five weeks - Fill out a weekly question asking about their mood for 10 weeks - Fill out an online survey asking questions about their family and mental health after the program Healthy children and adolescents with siblings with CF will be compared against themselves. Researchers will compare participants scores before starting the program with their scores during and after completing the program. Researchers hope to develop a program that improves mental health, quality of life, sibling relationships, and knowledge about CF.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Change in Mood and Anxiety Rating | Single ratings of self-reported mood and anxiety will be completed ten times over the course of the study. One question will assess mood and one question will assess anxiety using a 3-point Likert scale (0 = none of the time; 1 = some of the time; 2 = a lot of the time) to indicate the frequency of the symptom that day. Ratings will be completed prior to beginning the program (baseline - phase A) and during completion of the program (intervention - phase B). The number of ratings in each phase will vary based on the participant and be distributed equally across the 5-week periods with a minimum of three ratings per phase (i.e., during baseline or intervention). | 10 Weeks | |
Primary | Change from Baseline in the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children (STAI-C) | The STAI-C measures general anxiety in children on a continuous scale with items being rated on a 3-point Likert scale reflecting the frequency of anxiety symptom. Total scores can range from a minimum score of 20 to a maximum score of 60. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Primary | Change from Baseline in the Children's Depression Inventory-2 (CDI-2) | The CDI-2 measures cognitive, affective, and behavioural symptoms of depression in children and adolescents on a continuous scale. Each item is rated on a 3-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (absence of symptom) to 2 (definite symptom). Total raw scores are converted into T-scores with a score of 65 being indicative clinically significant depressive symptoms. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Primary | Change from Baseline in the Childhood Illness Attitudes Scale (CIAS) | the CIAS assesses fears, beliefs, and attitudes that are associated with health anxiety and abnormal illness behaviour in school children on a continuous scale. Items are rated on a 3-point Likert scale with total scores range from 29 to 87 with higher scores reflecting higher levels of health anxiety associated behaviours. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Primary | Change from Baseline in the Childhood Anxiety Sensitivity Index (CASI) | The CASI measures fear of anxiety-related symptoms in school children on a continuous scale. Each item is rated on a 3-point Likert scale (1 = none; 2 = some; 3 = a lot) with total scores ranging from 18 to 54 and higher scores reflecting higher levels of anxiety sensitivity. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Primary | Change from Baseline in the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale-Revised (IUS-R) | The IUS-R measures intolerance of uncertainty in children on a continuous scale. Items are rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (not at all like me) to 5 (entirely like me). Total scores range from 12 to 60 with higher scores indicating higher levels of IU. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Primary | Change from Baseline in the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL-4.0) | The PedsQL-4.0 measures health-related quality of life in healthy and acute and chronically ill children and adolescents on a continuous scale. Items are rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (never) to 4 (almost always). The PedsQL-4.0 is comprised of four generic core scales that encompass physical functioning, emotional functioning, social functioning, and school functioning. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Primary | Change from Baseline in the Sibling Relationship Questionnaire-Revised (SRQ-R) | The SRQ-Rdesigned to assess children's perceptions of their siblings in areas of Closeness/Intimacy, Power, Conflict, and Rivalry. On a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (hardly at all) to 5 (extremely much) children are asked to rate how well a characteristic describes their relationship with their sibling. Higher scores on each of the scales and factors indicate greater levels of the specified relationship quality in the sibling relationship. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Primary | Change from Baseline in the Disease Knowledge Questionnaire | The measure was constructed to assess CF disease knowledge as it related to the iCF-PWR content. It is comprised of 13 items rated on a 7-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree to 7 = strongly agree). Higher scores indicate greater CF disease knowledge. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Secondary | Change from Baseline in the Children's Depression Inventory-2 - Parent Report (CDI-2 P) | The CDI-2 P assesses a parent's observation of their child's or adolescent's cognitive, affective, and behavioural symptoms of depression. Each item is rated on a 4-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 2 (much or most of the time). Total raw scores are converted into T-scores with a score of 65 being indicative clinically significant depressive symptoms. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) | |
Secondary | Change from Baseline in the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory - Parent Version (STAI-P) | The STAI-P assesses state anxiety (i.e., at this present moment) in school children with and without physical symptoms. Items are rated on a 4-point Likert scale reflecting the frequency the anxiety symptom occurs (1 = not at all; 2 = sometimes; 3 = moderately; 4 = very much so). Total scores for the subscales can range from a minimum score of 20 to a maximum score of 80. | Baseline and Week 10 (post-intervention) |
