Summary

The purpose of this multi-site randomized clinical trial is to determine if an online coping skills training program will produce superior improvements in pain and health-related quality of life outcomes for adolescents with JIA relative to outcomes attained with reviewing online educational information about JIA.

Conditions

  • Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Web-based coping skills training

This intervention comprises a 12-week interactive, multi-component, multimedia online training that consists of instruction in specific self-management strategies, disease education, and social support. The content is rooted in cognitive-behavioral principles of disease self-management. In addition to the web-based modules, the intervention consists of monthly telephone support for 3 months by a trained bilingual health coach (research nurse) to review material and help enhance motivation.

BEHAVIORAL

Online disease education

The online disease education intervention provides access to an online resource center containing links to 12 educational websites about Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. Participants will be asked to review one educational website per week over the course of 12 weeks. Participants also will receive three monthly phone calls by a bilingual nurse "health coach" to discuss the participant's efforts at managing his/her disease.
