Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Primary Care Mental Health Integration staff at each clinic may also refer patients to the study by entering referral information directly into secure, encrypted REDCap files or by handing the patient a study information card.
Community veterans will be invited via social media marketing. Ads will link to a study web site. Study web site will link potential participants to REDCap eligibility screening questions. When eligibility is confirmed, REDCap will automatically alert research assistant to enroll participant and randomize.
Veterans who decide to be in the study will be assigned by chance to one of three groups: An On Your Own group, a Peer Support group, or a Wait group. Veterans assigned to take the Moving Forward course with peer support or on their own will complete the course online and practice the problem-solving skills they learned for six weeks. Finishing the Moving Forward course takes a total of about four hours. Veterans in the peer support group will speak with a Veteran who is experienced with the course on the phone for 15 to 20 minutes once a week during the study about using the ideas and exercises in the course to solve problems. Veterans assigned to the wait group will answer questions online about problem-solving skills and their well-being at the start and after six weeks). They will be able to take the course if they would like to after the six weeks have passed. Veterans in the On Your Own and Peer Support groups will answer questions online at the beginning, middle, and end of the study about problem-solving skills, their opinions about the course and about peer support (if they got it), and their well-being. This will take 10 to 15 minutes each time.
