Summary

Evidence-based psychosocial interventions are rarely used in part because of their design complexity. Although many implementation frameworks do address the importance of EBPI characteristics, adapting and modifying EBPIs to enhance usability has not been a focus. User-centered design (UCD) approaches, which have been successful in creating hardware and software tools that are accessible and compelling to use, have the potential to modify EBPIs so that they are accessible and compelling to clinicians. We hypothesize that UCD driven modifications to EBPI usability (target mechanism) will result in enhanced clinician ability to deliver EBPI elements competently, and that better competence results in better patient reported outcomes. We will modify Behavioral Activation (BA), an EBPI often used in primary care, to function as a Task Sharing model between clinicians and care managers. Our specific aims are to (1) identify usability problems clinicians and care managers encounter with BA (2) create a clinician- and care manager-driven modification of BA and (3) compare the modified Task Sharing version of BA to usual care on usability, clinician competence, and patient reported outcomes.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Usual Care

The clinic's usual care includes counseling, substance use disorder treatment, peer support services, and some elements of traditional BA (not the modified BA).

BEHAVIORAL

Modified Behavioral Activation (Task Sharing)

This intervention will include all core elements of Behavioral Activation (BA), which is a behavioral intervention that identifies work, social, health, or family activities that patients have stopped engaging in because of their mood. The intervention will also include a Task Sharing modification, which will allow clinicians and care managers to more efficiently share the tasks involved in BA.
