Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Self -Reflection and Insight Scale (SRIS): change from baseline to 12 weeks and from baseline to 24 weeks | 20 question self-report measure which assesses participants private self-consciousness using self-reflection and insight components. Total score of 20-120 points is calculated, with higher scores indicating greater self-reflection and insight. | At baseline, Week 12, and Week 24. | |
Primary | Buffalo Vocational Monitoring Survey (BVMS): change from baseline to 12 weeks and from baseline to 24 weeks | Assesses general employment information (e.g. number of hours worked per week, job title, and income) and work-related problems and accommodations. Participants will identify specific negative work events (e.g. formal reprimand) experienced in the past 3 months and provide a list of job accommodations to endorse if they are receiving them at the time of survey. Income, number of hours worked per week, number of negative work events (0 to 7, with higher number indicating more negative work events), and number of accommodations (0 to 40, with higher number indicating more accommodations) will be used as outcomes from this survey. | At baseline, Week 12, and Week 24 | |
Primary | The Valued Living Questionnaire (VLQ): change from baseline to 12 weeks and from baseline to 24 weeks | Assesses valued living, or the extent to which an individual contacts his or her chosen values in everyday life. Respondents are asked to rate the 10 areas of life on a scale of 1-10, indicating the level of importance and how consistently they have lived in accord with those values in the past week. The composite score is used (1-100 points), with higher scores indicating a greater extent to which one is living out particular values in everyday life. | At baseline, Week 12, and Week 24 | |
Secondary | NEO Five Factor Inventory (NEOFFI): change from baseline to 12 weeks and from baseline to 24 weeks | Personality inventory measuring five primary domains of personality: neuroticism, extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. Total scores are 12-60 on each domain's scale, with higher scores indicating higher levels of that personality trait. | At baseline, Week 12, and Week 24. | |
Secondary | Quality of Life in Neurological Disorders (NeuroQol): change from baseline to 12 weeks and from baseline to 24 weeks | Measure of quality of life for neurology patients. We are using the four subscales of Communication, Ability to Participate in Social Roles and Activities, Satisfaction with Social Roles and Activities, and Positive Affect and Well Being. T-scores are used with higher T-scores indicating greater quality of life in each respective domain. | At baseline, Week 12, and Week 24. | |
Secondary | Beck Depression Inventory 2nd Edition (BDI-II): change from baseline to 12 weeks and from baseline to 24 weeks | Quantifies depression symptoms. Minimum of 0, maximum of 63. Higher score indicates higher levels of depression. | At baseline, Week 12, and Week 24. | |
Secondary | Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI): change from baseline to 12 weeks and from baseline to 24 weeks | Quantifies anxiety symptoms. Minimum of 0, maximum of 63. Higher score indicates higher levels of anxiety. | At baseline, Week 12, and Week 24. | |
Secondary | Multiple Sclerosis Work Difficulties Questionnaire (MSWDQ-23): change from baseline to 12 weeks and from baseline to 24 weeks | Measures work-related problems in multiple sclerosis patients. Scale of 0-100 with higher scores indicating greater work difficulty. | At baseline, Week 12, and Week 24. | |
Secondary | The Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) | Presents a series of nine symbols, each paired with a single digit in a key at the top of a stimulus page. Subjects voice the number associated with each symbol as rapidly as possible. Measures cognitive processing speed. Minimum score of 0, Maximum score of 120. Higher scores indicate better performance. | At baseline only | |
Secondary | The California Verbal Learning Test Second Edition (CVLT2) | Measures verbal learning and memory. Begins with the examiner reading a list of 16 words. Patients listen to the list and report as many of the items as possible. After recall is recorded, the entire list is read again followed by a second attempt at recall. Altogether, there are five learning trials, and a delayed recall trial after 20 minutes. Minimum of 0, maximum of 80 on learning trials. Minimum of 0, maximum of 16 on delayed recall trial. Higher score indicates better performance. | At baseline only | |
Secondary | The Brief Visuospatial Memory Test Revised (BVMTR) | Measures visual/spatial memory. Presents six abstract designs for 10 seconds. The display is removed from view and patients render the stimuli via pencil on paper manual responses. There are three learning trials and a delayed recall trial after 20 minutes. Minimum of 0, maximum of 36 on learning trials. Minimum of 0, maximum of 12 on delayed recall trial. Higher score indicates better performance. | At baseline only |
