Mobile Regulation of Craving Training (mROC-T) for Adolescent Girls
This study is testing a mobile app called Mobile Regulation of Craving Training (mROC-T) to see if it can help adolescent girls in rural areas eat healthier. The app aims to increase how many fruits and vegetables you eat. Researchers want to know if using the mROC-T app improves your Healthy Eating Index (a score of how healthy your diet is) and also affects your body mass index (BMI), waist size, and blood sugar levels over one year. You would be randomized (like drawing names from a hat) into one of two active mROC-T groups or a control group that gets fun food facts. This study is for girls aged 15 to 18 years old who are biologically female. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 150 participants.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study where participants are randomly assigned to either an active mROC-T group or a control group. It aims to enroll 150 adolescent girls.
- What's involved
- You would have in-person visits at the beginning and after one year, which include blood tests (oral glucose tolerance test), measurements of height, weight, and waist circumference, and completing questionnaires. You will also play the mROC-T game and record your diet.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed for one year after the initial visit.

What this trial measures
- Healthy eating index (HEI)1 year
Participants will provide diet recalls twice per month. The participants will complete the diet recalls using the Automated Self Administered 24 hour recall (ASA-24) platform. The ASA-24 computes the necessary variables to calculate the healthy eating index (HEI). HEI is a measure of overall diet quality according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and is scored from 0-100 (100 being the best possible diet). HEI scores will be calculated per month (mean of diet recalls per person) using the most recent HEI scoring algorithm as recommended for intervention studies.
