Type

Nr

Research Question

Feasibility

fQ1

Is JITAI using mobile phones and wristbands to trigger interventions specifically at times of high stress technically feasible?

fQ2

Do participants adhere to the JITAI?

fQ3

How do participants experience the JITAI?

Efficacy

eQ1

Are the interventions accompanied by reductions in stressor reactivity relative to baseline?

eQ2

Are the interventions accompanied by increases in target engagement relative to baseline?

Primary

pQ1

Can we identify predictors in the baseline characterization data for the effects of each of the two interventions on stressor reactivity?

pQ2

Can we identify predictors in the baseline characterization data for the effects of each of the two interventions on target engagement?

Secondary

sQ1

Are the anticipated reductions in stressor reactivity preceded or accompanied by the anticipated increases in target engagement?

Tertiary

tQ1

Are interventions accompanied by increases in PAS relative to baseline?

tQ2

Are the anticipated reductions in stressor reactivity preceded or accompanied by the anticipated increases in PAS?

tQ3

Are the anticipated increases in PAS preceded or accompanied by the anticipated increases in target engagement?

tQ4

Do individuals with high baseline PAS show less stressor reactivity?

tQ5

Are changes in PAS throughout the course of the study accompanied by inverse changes in stressor reactivity?

  1. In the DynaM-INT study, we attempt to answer multiple research questions, divided in feasibility and efficacy questions, as well as primary, secondary and tertiary main research questions
