研究概览
简要总结
The study is an initial investigation of the feasibility of applying Bayesian sequential analyses to individual participant single-case data for rapid detection of whether or not the individual is benefitting from a low-intensity computerized cognitive training intervention for depression. Patients waiting for, or in follow-up from, outpatient psychological therapy will complete first a two-week period of daily symptom monitoring, followed by two different two-week cognitive training interventions. Data collected will be used to assess feasibility of a future formal case series using Bayesian sequential analyses to determine switching of interventions, and inform the analysis parameters for such a future study.

结局指标
主要结局
Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology - Self Report Daily Version (QIDS-daily)
时间窗: End of intervention (4 weeks post-baseline)
The QIDS-daily is an adapted version of the QIDS-SR (Rush et al., 2003), which asks about symptoms over the past day and does not include the weight gain/loss items (as used by Holmes et al., 2016). The QIDS-daily will be completed daily over the entire study period, and we will compare the mean and slope of the daily QIDS over the intervention phase to the mean and slope of the daily QIDS in the previous phase.
