Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test the preliminary effects of an 8-week mobile application-based program (SupportGroove) developed for persons with spinal cord injury and their romantic partners.
This RCT will test the marginal benefit of adding economic-focused services to traditional relationship education (RE) interventions. 344 couples will be randomly assigned to the RE only or RE plus economic-services condition. All couples will be assessed at baseline, 6-weeks, 6-months, and 12-months. This project will examine whether couples in the RE plus condition have better relationship and economic outcomes than couples in the RE only condition.
This study is the local process and impact evaluation for Saint Francis Ministries' Fatherhood FIRE Program.
The purpose of the READyR II Study is to test a dynamic tailoring phase of a remote assessment for changing dementia-related care needs.
The purpose of the READyR study (originally called SHARE-sense) is to redevelop and test an intervention program to remotely assess for changing dementia-related care needs.
The current research is designed to implement and evaluate the ePREP relationship intervention with couples throughout the state of Illinois.
This study investigates the effectiveness of self-help, web-based programs to improve romantic relationships and related outcomes. Couples will be randomly assigned to complete the OurRelationship program, the ePREP program, the OurRelationship program with the addition of a coach, the ePREP program with the addition of a coach, or a wait-list control group and followed for six months.
The purpose this study is to determine the continued reach and effectiveness of the OurRelationship.com program once paid advertising and payment for participation ceases. The answer to this question is essential to determining the sustainability of web-based interventions for couples. Specifically, this study has four aims: 1. Examine continued level of initial interest in the study, as measured by number of initial visits to the website, time spent on the page, and number of couples signing up for the study. 2. Measure any changes in the characteristics of the individuals expressing interest in the study, including demographics (e.g., race, ethnicity, education), relationship functioning (e.g., relationship satisfaction, previous help-seeking), and individual functioning (e.g., depression, anxiety) 3. Determine completion rates and effectiveness of the program once payments for participation have been removed. 4. Determine whether having a single Skype/phone call with a coach (rather than the four calls that were used in the NIH trial) significantly degrades completion rates.
Although several empirically-supported interventions to prevent and treat relationship distress have been developed, the majority of couples - especially high-risk couples - do not seek these face-to-face interventions. However, our pilot data indicate that large numbers of couples will seek self-administered assistance for their relationship. Additionally, unlike many in-person interventions, couples seeking self-help resources tend to have higher levels of relationship distress. Thus, to improve the reach of couple interventions, this project will translate a leading empirically-supported intervention targeting early signs of relationship distress into a Web-based format. This intervention will consist of individualized feedback and professionally-filmed video clips tailored to a couple's specific needs. By intervening effectively with a large number of couples, the resulting Web-based intervention has the potential to have a population-level impact on relationship distress, divorce, and resulting child difficulties. In the proposed project, building off our previous pilot studies, effective translation of this in-person intervention into a Web-based format will be ensured by conducting two additional intensive pilot studies. Once final changes have been made to the website and Web-based intervention, 300 couples will be randomly assigned to a wait-list control group or an online intervention. All couples will be assessed for the initial two months; intervention couples will be assessed for one year. This project will: 1) demonstrate that couples randomly assigned to the online intervention will report higher levels of individual, child, and relationship functioning than those in the wait-list control group; 2) document the mechanisms of both active conditions; and 3) show that initial gains in those assigned to the intervention are largely maintained through one-year follow-up.
The investigators are interested in typical couple interactions and health behaviors. In particular, the investigators are interested in different ways that each partner in a coupled relationship reacts to and understand each other's behavior, and in their health behaviors.
