Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this pilot study, a pre-post experimental design will be used, in which 60 community dwelling adults aged 50+ will recruited from a larger parent study, and will then be randomized to either a no-contact control or intervention condition. Those in the intervention condition will receive a psychoeducational intervention in which they will receive scientific literature-based information on resilience and strategies to bolster resilience, as well as developing an individualized plan on areas to engage in at home over the next four weeks. All participants will return for an immediate posttest using an abbreviated version of the baseline battery from the parent study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

No contact control

the no contact control group will do nothing

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Intervention

the intervention condition will come to the lab for a 1 hour Pilot Resilience Building Intervention including a presentation on resilience and strategies to boost adherence, of which they will chose five to integrate in their daily life over the following 4 weeks

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Pilot Resilience Building Intervention

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The intervention will include a brief one-on-one visit in which psychoeducational information on building resilience will be given via a PowerPoint presentation, which will include exercises for the participants to engage in over the following four weeks in their daily lives. After the presentation participants will also develop a personalized intervention plan where they will choose at least five areas of the American Psychological Association 10 Strategies for Building Resilience on which to specifically focus.
