简要总结
The goal of this 15-month cluster clinical trial is to compare a resilience and stress management program to a physical activity program for early childhood education (ECE) staff on change in well-being. It will also look to see if changes in well-being continue over time.
The study sample will include 80 child care centers. Including 80 ECE center directors and approximately 560 ECE center staff.
Some ECE centers will receive only the remotely delivered Resilience program. This program works with ECE staff and helps them recognize and strengthen their resilience assets and resources. Other ECE centers will receive only the remotely delivered Physical Activity program that will focus on staff physical activity habits and strength training.
There will be 3 months of active program participation and 12 months of a maintenance period where participants will only have access to program materials.
详细描述
This study is two-group clustered randomized trial comparing two remotely delivered programs to early childhood education (ECE) center staff, a Resilience program and a Physical Activity program, on ECE center staff change in well-being. The investigators will randomized (by center 1:1 ratio) 80 ECE centers, including 640 ECE staff from these centers, to one of arms (Resilience or Physical Activity) for a 15 month trial (3 months active intervention and 12 months maintenance period). The specific aims are to 1) increase resilience assets and resources for ECE staff, 2) increase overall well-being and organizational assets and resources, and 3) maintain increases in resilience assets and resources, well-being, and organizational assets and resources for ECE staff over time.
Once randomized, all program tasks and activities will be remotely delivered, and guidance will be provided by a behavioral health counselor. Participants will complete their assigned program over four modules spanning 3 months (3 weeks per module). Activities will include an orientation, modules consisting of video lessons and resources, 3 webinars for all participants, text messages (3-5 per week), and 4 coaching calls for ECE center directors only.
Measures will be collected at four timepoints: baseline (0 months), post-intervention (3 months), and long-term maintenance (9 and 15 months). Secondary outcomes will include changes in overall mental health, negative and positive mental health indicators, social support, and organizational assets and resources. Additionally, potential moderators' (e.g., sociodemographic, social determinants of health) influence on treatment effects will be explored. The Reach Effectiveness-Adoption Implementation Maintenance (RE-AIM) Framework will be used to determine reach and representativeness, and potential for organizational level adoption, implementation, and maintenance of the SMART program.
Primary analyses will involve testing change in the total score from the Connor- Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) between Resilience and Physical Activity arms at 3 months. Using maximum likelihood methods, multi-level linear mixed models (PROC MIXED) that include random effect for cluster to account for covariance between participants within the same center as well as fixed effects for time (0, 3, 9, 15 months), trial arm (resilience or physical activity), time*arm interaction will be used. Similar analyses will be completed for secondary outcomes. Baseline variables including center and worker demographics and social determinants of health will be included as covariates to assess their potential moderating effect.

研究组 & 干预措施
Resilience
Centers randomized to Resilience will receive the Stress Management And Resilience Training program. Participating staff will be led through the program by a behavioral health counselor for 3 months. This counselor will orient participants to the Resilience program and the 4 modules. The counselor will also provide 4 coaching calls with directors (at the start of each module). Additionally, the counselor will provide a webinar every 3 weeks (at the end of each module) to all participants. Participants will have access to video lessons and resources. They will receive weekly reminders and encouragement through text messages.
干预措施: Resilience (Behavioral)
Physical Activity
Centers randomized to the control arm will receive a physical activity program. Participating staff will be led through the program by a behavioral health counselor for 3 months. This counselor will orient participants to the physical activity program and the 4 modules. The counselor will also provide 4 coaching calls with directors (at the start of each module). Additionally, the counselor will provide a webinar every 3 weeks (at the end of each module) to all participants. Participants will have access to video lessons and resources. They will receive weekly reminders and encouragement through text messages.
干预措施: Physical Activity (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Resilience from Baseline to 3 months
时间窗: Baseline and 3 months
Resilience of ECE staff will be assessed using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). ECE staff will fill out through an online survey. The CD-RISC is a 25-item scale. Scores range from 0-100 with higher scores reflecting greater resilience.
次要结局
- Change in Resilience from 3 months to 9 months(3 months and 9 months)
- Change in Resilience from 9 to 15 months(9 months and 15 months)
- Change in Well-Being from Baseline to 3 months(Baseline and 3 months)
- Change in Organizational Support and Resources from Baseline to 3 months(Baseline and 3 months)
- Absenteeism from Baseline to 3 months(Baseline to 3 months)
- Staff Turnover rate from Baseline to 3 months(Baseline to 3 months)
