Late-life depression levels are escalating, and include 24% of all tenants of Assisted Living (AL) settings. A promising, novel intervention is a computerized visual speed of processing training program known as Road Tour. Road Tour has been show to reduce depressive symptom levels and the risk of onset of clinical depression in community dwelling older adults. The investigators hypothesize that similar benefits will accrue to residents in AL settings. To evaluate this the investigators will use a two-arm, parallel, randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing Road Tour training to attention control using computerized crossword puzzles among 370 adults 55 years old or older who reside in 15-30 AL settings that are partnering with the investigators. The investigators hypothesize that Road Tour participants will have improved cognitive processing speed, lower levels of depressive symptoms, lower likelihood of the onset of clinical depression, less anxiety, lower levels of pain symptoms, and better health-related quality of life. These outcomes will be assessed at baseline, post-training, six months, and one year.

Primary | Changes in the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) | The PHQ-9 items reflect the nine Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fourth edition (DSM-IV) diagnostic criteria for major depression and are rated from 0=not at all to 3=nearly every day for a total score range of 0-27. Established cut-points are: 0-4= minimal depression; 5-9=mild depression; 10-14=moderate depression; 15 or greater = severe depression. Scores of 10 or more indicate suspected clinically significant depression. The PHQ-9 facilitates direct assessment of two hallmarks of major depression (prominent dysphoria and anhedonia) and comparison to another body of late life depression research. | baseline, post-training, six months, one year | |
Primary | Changes in the Centers for Epidemiological Studies Depression (CESD) 12-item scale | A shorter version of the original CESD-20 that has been a gold standard for screening for depression in epidemiological, field, and public survey studies, and has very high reliability and validity. Because the CESD-12 was used in the Iowa Healthy and Active Minds Study (IHAMS) and the Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent Vital Elderly (ACTIVE) study, direct comparison of depression outcomes among AL participants in this study and community-dwelling subjects in those studies can occur. CESD-12 is composed of short statements scored from 0=rarely or none of time (less than 1 day per week) to 3=all of the time (5-7 days per week) for a score range of 0-36. The cut-off score for suspected clinical depression on the CESD-12 is 9 or more points, which is equivalent to 16 or more points for the CESD-20. | baseline, post-training, six months, one year | |
Secondary | Changes in the Useful Field of View (UFOV) | The UFOV is well-established, has high reliability and validity, and is the gold standard for measuring visual processing speed. UFOV includes three subtests-stimulus identification, divided attention, and selective attention-each automatically scored from 17-500 ms reflecting the shortest exposure time at which the participant could correctly perform each subtest 75% of the time, with a composite ms outcome score ranging from 51-1500 ms. Scores represent the shortest display duration with which the respondent performs accurately on 75% of the trials. | baseline, post-training, six months, one year | |
Secondary | Changes in the Short Form 36 Item Health-Related Quality of Life (SF-36) Scale | The SF-36 is the most widely used measure of health-related quality of life, and consists of 36 items that make up eight subscales. Its reliability and validity are well established in the US and elsewhere. Subscale scores range from 0 for worst health to 100 for best health. | baseline, and one year | |
Secondary | Changes in the Short Form 12 Item Health-Related Quality of Life (SF-12) | The SF-12 is an abbreviated version of the SF-36 health-related quality of life measure, and consists of 12 items that make up eight subscales. Its reliability and validity are well established in the US and elsewhere. Subscale scores range from 0 for worst health to 100 for best health. It is used here at post-training and six months to minimize respondent fatigue. | post-training and six months | |
Secondary | Changes in the Brief Pain Invention (BPI) | The Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) multi-item severity and interference scales have been adopted for telephone use. It consists of likert scaled and thermometer response options. We will examine mean changes in both scales over time, as well as declines in pain scores > 30%, which are considered clinically meaningful. | baseline, post-training, six months, one year | |
Secondary | Changes in the Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) Questionnaire | The highly reliable and valid 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) scale rates the DSM-IV criteria for GAD with a response set ranging from 0=not at all to 3=nearly every day. Cut-points for the GAD-7 are comparable to the PHQ-9, with 0-4= minimal anxiety; 5-9=mild anxiety; and 10 or more=clinically significant anxiety. | baseline, post-training, six months, one year |
