What this trial measures

  • Behavioral activation measured using the Behavioral Activation for Depression Scale (BADS)From enrollment until the end of the three-month follow-up period

    The Behavioral Activation for Depression Scale (BADS) is a self-report measure assessing engagement in goal-directed and rewarding activities, avoidance behaviors, and functional impairment associated with depression. Scores on the activation subscale and total scale will be used to assess changes in behavioral activation over time. Higher activation scores indicate greater engagement in adaptive activities, whereas higher avoidance scores indicate greater behavioral avoidance.

  • Depressive symptoms measured using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Depression ScaleFrom enrollment until the end of the three-month follow-up period

    The PROMIS Depression Scale is a self-report measure assessing negative mood, decreased positive affect, and other symptoms associated with depression. Scores are converted to standardized T-scores, with higher scores indicating greater depressive symptom severity. Changes in PROMIS Depression scores across the follow-up period will be compared between study conditions.
