简要总结
Problems with substance use are common in prisoners. Since most substances are still illegal in Canada, substance use problems can increase the risk for re-incarceration. Although research suggests that treatment may reduce these risks, they are still rarely used in correctional settings. This pilot study will examine the feasibility and usefulness of two digital treatments for substance use problems in individuals recently released from prison. The investigators will compare engagement across both treatments over a 6-month period, and assess the rates of substance use relapse and re-incarceration.

结局指标
主要结局
Feasibility of Digital Treatment Interventions
时间窗: End of enrollment (~6 months)
Number of enrolled pilot trial participants, overall and by intervention.
Overall Substance Use Treatment Engagement
时间窗: End of enrollment (~6 months)
The number and percentage of modules, and homework modules, completed.
Perceived Treatment Utility
时间窗: End of enrollment (~6 months)
Mean module and overall treatment rating using a 4-question "Module Utility" scale created by the research team. This is an 11-point Likert scale (0-10) rating the importance, relevance, usefulness, and likeliness to recommend treatment, with higher scores indicating better utility.
Efficacy of Treatment Module Content
时间窗: End of enrollment (~6 months)
Treatment modules include quizzes with several true or false questions (5-10 questions per module) that assess individuals' understanding of the content learned. Overall performance on intervention quizzes in treatment modules will be examined using the total number of questions answered correctly, with higher scores indicating a better understanding of the treatment modules.
Efficacy of Digital Treatment Interventions for Substance Use
时间窗: Study follow-up (~3 months post-treatment completion)
Substance use relapse documented by the CSC staff.
Efficacy of Digital Treatment Interventions for Recidivism
时间窗: Study follow-up (~3 months post-treatment completion)
Institutional readmission documented by the CSC staff.
次要结局
- Between-Intervention Feasibility Outcomes(End of enrollment (~6 months))
- Between-Intervention Efficacy Outcomes for Substance Use(Study follow-up (~3 months post-treatment completion))
- Between-Intervention Efficacy Outcomes for Recidivism(Study follow-up (~3 months post-treatment completion))
