简要总结
A training comprised of positive psychological interventions set out to improve mental well-being was developed for post-COVID-19 patients. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of this training.
详细描述
Research has shown that the quality of life and well-being of post-COVID-19 patients are often reduced, and that many patients struggle with self-management tasks, such as symptom management and emotion regulation. Training in self-management skills related to positive emotions, such as positive affect savouring, might help with these and can be provided prior to or in parallel with usual treatment. This study aims to investigate whether a training to improve the mental well-being is feasible and acceptable for people with post-COVID-19 syndrome. The training to be provided is based on previously evaluated sets of positive psychological interventions ('This is your life' and 'Training in Positivity') and adapted to a post-COVID-19 population. As a secondary aim, preliminary effectiveness will be evaluated.

结局指标
主要结局
Feasibility of the intervention exercises
时间窗: At post-intervention (2 weeks after baseline)
Feasibility is assessed using items asking how often exercises were executed (never, 1, 2 or 3 times).
Acceptability of the intervention exercises - willingness to do again
时间窗: At post-intervention (2 weeks after baseline) and at follow-up (6 weeks after baseline). Interviews are to be conducted soon after the post-questionnaire
Acceptability is assessed using items on willingness to do again, satisfaction, perceived utility, experienced ease-of-use, experienced discomfort, and willingness to recommend to a) other patients and b) friends. Each item is measured on 5-point Likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), and assessed on an item level.
Acceptability of the intervention exercises - satisfaction
时间窗: At post-intervention (2 weeks after baseline) and at follow-up (6 weeks after baseline). Interviews are to be conducted soon after the post-questionnaire
Acceptability is assessed using items on willingness to do again, satisfaction, perceived utility, experienced ease-of-use, experienced discomfort, and willingness to recommend to a) other patients and b) friends. Each item is measured on 5-point Likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), and assessed on an item level.

Acceptability of the intervention exercises - willingness to recommend
时间窗: At post-intervention (2 weeks after baseline)
Acceptability is assessed using items on willingness to do again, satisfaction, perceived utility, experienced ease-of-use, experienced discomfort, and willingness to recommend to a) other patients and b) friends. Each item is measured on 5-point Likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), and assessed on an item level.
Acceptability of the intervention exercises - interviews
时间窗: Between post-intervention (2 weeks after baseline) and at follow-up (6 weeks after baseline).
Acceptability will be further explored via in-depth interviews (optional in addition to the post- and follow-up questionnaires) and assessed using thematic analysis
