Other Clinical Trial - Personalizing Interventions Using Real-World

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Social functioning deficits are among the most disabling and difficult to treat aspects of schizophrenia. An essential component of social functioning is metacognition-a process that is profoundly disrupted in schizophrenia and represents the ability to reflect upon the mental states of oneself and others. To date, treatment efforts in schizophrenia have been hindered by barriers in accurately monitoring client's real-world social interactions. Recently, wearable technologies have evolved to provide therapists with innovative, ecologically-valid tools. The Electronically Activated Recorder is a wearable audio recorder that collects behavioral samples at pre-programmed intervals; it holds great promise as a method for yielding concrete, real-world examples of social interactions that can be used by therapists in session to enhance metacognition. Despite the immense costs of social functioning deficits, no previous studies have investigated whether functioning can be improved by integrating wearable audio recorders with psychosocial interventions. By enhancing therapy using a wearable recording device, this proposal's primary goal is to implement a novel intervention that targets metacognitive deficits to improve social functioning. The novel intervention will be tailored to individual clients-based on the content of recorded social interactions-in a way that is not possible using traditional psychotherapy. This will allow clients and therapists to step out of the therapy room by offering a window into how clients process material in real-world interactions. In this study, a randomized controlled trial will be conducted with two schizophrenia groups receiving six months of individualized: 1) Metacognition Reflection and Insight Therapy (MERIT) alone (Standard MERIT); and 2) Tailored MERIT using wearable audio recorders. In this study, our specific aims will test feasibility, effectiveness, and acceptability of Tailored MERIT.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
