简要总结
The primary aim of this study is to provide and evaluate a phone-based intervention to improve relational and mental well-being during the COVID-19 crisis. This information also will help us understand how individuals are responding to COVID-19 and have the potential to inform psychological and policy level interventions.
详细描述
We conducted a randomized intervention trial of a mobile-based intervention that offered participants daily suggestions for 14 days on how to improve relational and mental well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic. A sample of 1765 adults residing in the United States participated in the study and were assigned to control or intervention conditions. To measure outcomes, all participants received a daily text message to their smartphones every evening for 28 days linking to a survey on relational and mental well-being. Participants also received a survey link on Days 56 and 72. Intervention participants received additional text messages in the mornings of Days 7 - 22 presenting the intervention suggestions.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in loneliness
时间窗: Measured every evening for 28 days; the first 6 days constituted baseline measurement; change was assessed over Days 7 - 28 with baseline as a covariate
Loneliness was measured using two items adapted from the UCLA Loneliness Scale, "I felt lonely today" and "I felt left out today" using a slider from 0 (Not at all) to 10 (Extremely).
Change in depressed mood
时间窗: Measured every evening for 28 days; the first 6 days constituted baseline measurement; change was assessed over Days 7 - 28 with baseline as a covariate
Depressed mood was measured using the first two symptom items of the Patient Health Questionnaire-2, "I felt down, depressed, or hopeless today" and "I had little interest or pleasure in doing things today"; both were rated with a slider from 0 (None of the time) to 10 (All of the time) with anchors "Some of the time" and "Most of the time" spaced evenly between.
Change in relationship quality
时间窗: Measured every evening for 28 days; the first 6 days constituted baseline measurement; change was assessed over Days 7 - 28 with baseline as a covariate
Relationship quality was measured using two items, "I felt closer and more connected to important people in my life today" with a slider including 0 (Not at all), 5 (A moderate amount) and 10 (Very much so) and "I felt satisfied with my relationships today" with a slider from 0 (Not at all) to 10 (Extremely).
