H.O.O.V.E.S. Healing Intensives for Anxiety, PTSD, and Depression
This study is evaluating the H.O.O.V.E.S. Healing Intensives program, a 4-day program for veterans, their families, and first responders dealing with stress. Researchers want to see how much this program helps with anxiety, PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), and depression. They will use questionnaires to measure changes in your well-being before, during, and after the program, and then again at 90, 120, and 360 days later. To join, you must be a veteran who has served in the military, be enrolled in a H.O.O.V.E.S. program, and speak English. The study aims to see if there are significant improvements in your mental health after participating.
- Study design

- What's involved
- You would complete demographic questionnaires and psychological tests before, during, and after the H.O.O.V.E.S. program, and then again at 90, 120, and 360 days post-intervention.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- You will be followed for an average of 5 years, with specific assessments at 90, 120, and 360 days after the program.

What this trial measures
- Mean Difference in AAQII pre- to post-session and pre- to post-interventionthrough study completion, an average of 5 years
AAQII is a 10-item measure that assesses psychological flexibility, with higher values indicating greater psychological inflexibility. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates.
- Mean Difference in PANAS pre- to post-session and pre- to post-interventionthrough study completion, an average of 5 years
PANAS measures short-term positive and negative emotions. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates.
- Mean Difference in STAI pre- to post-session and pre- to post-interventionthrough study completion, an average of 5 years
The STAI tracks the symptoms of anxiety, and the total score ranges from 20 to 80. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates.
- Mean Difference in PCL pre- to post-session and pre- to post-interventionthrough study completion, an average of 5 years
PCL measures PTSD symptoms. The total PCL score can range from 17 to 85, with higher values indicating greater PTSD symptoms. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates.
- Mean Difference in BDI pre- to post-session and pre- to post-interventionthrough study completion, an average of 5 years
The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) measures depressive symptoms, with higher values indicating greater depressive symptoms. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates.
- Mean Difference in PTGI pre- to post-session and pre- to post-interventionthrough study completion, an average of 5 years
The Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) examines the post-trauma growth using 21 items. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates.
- Mean Difference in B-SCS pre- to post-session and pre- to post-interventionthrough study completion, an average of 5 years
The Brief Suicide Cognitions Scale (B-SCS) assesses the suicide risk. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates.
