结局指标
主要结局
SF-12 Mental Health Composite Score
时间窗: Baseline vs 24 week followup
Normed score generated by vendor-provided software using all 12 items of the SF-12v2 Health Survey. Scores range from 0-100, with higher scores indicating better mental health. Note: the SF-12 measures 8 health domains (Physical Function, Bodily Pain, Vitality, Role-Emotional, Role-Physical, General Health, Social Function, Mental Health) across 12 individual response questions. All 12 responses are normed for gender, and country of origin and differentially weighted to calculate scores for both physical and mental health.
Depressive Symptoms
时间窗: comparison of baseline with 24 weeks post journaling completion
Center for Epidemiologic Disease - Depression Scale (CES-D) Radloff, 1977. Composite item derived from 20 item scale. Individual items are scored on a 4 point likert scale (0-3). Individual items are summed and possible scale scores range from 0-60. Higher scores represent greater depressive symptoms. Scores of 16 or greater are interpreted as indicating an increased risk of diagnosis of clinical depression.
Family Well Being - Composite Score Derived From 12 Items.
时间窗: comparison of baseline with 24 weeks post journaling
General Family Functioning 12 item subscale of the McMaster Family Assessment Device (FAD). Participants respond on a 5 point likert scale. The subscale is the mean of the participant's responses to the 12 items with possible composite scores of 0-5. Higher scores indicate worse family well being.
Well Being
时间窗: comparison of baseline with 24 weeks post journaling
SF 12 individual item: overall self-appraised health. This is a single response item "In general, would you say your health is..." Participants respond on 5 point scale with response options ranging from Poor (1) to Excellent (5). Higher scores indicate better self-appraised health.
SF-12 Physical Health Composite Score
时间窗: Baseline vs 24 week followup
Normed score generated by vendor-provided software using all 12 items of the SF-12v2 Health Survey. Scores range from 0-100, with higher scores indicating better physical health. Note: the SF-12 measures 8 health domains (Physical Function, Bodily Pain, Vitality, Role-Emotional, Role-Physical, General Health, Social Function, Mental Health) across 12 individual response questions. All 12 responses are normed for gender, and country of origin and differentially weighted to calculate scores for both physical and mental health.
