PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: At 8 weeks post-randomization

Population: Overall number of participants analyzed include those who opened the app at least once AND answered at least one acceptability question in the 8 week follow-up survey.

Overall treatment satisfaction is reported on a Likert-type scale, with response choices ranging from "not at all=1" to "very much=5". Higher values are associated with higher level of satisfaction.

Population: We used negative binomial regression adjusting for Treatment Arm, Sex Assigned at Birth, Baseline Level of Smoking (\<20 Cigs/ \>=20 Cigs), and Baseline Depression Severity (PHQ-8\<5 / PHQ-8\>=5) to compare number of app openings by treatment arm

Number of app openings during the 8-week treatment period.

Timeframe: Baseline to 8 weeks

Population: Follow-up score minus baseline score.

The Patient Health Questionnaire-8 (PHQ-8) is an assessment of depressive symptoms used to detect symptom changes over time as a result of treatment. The PHQ-8 asks the number of days in the past 2 weeks the respondent had experienced a particular depressive symptom. Possible answers are "not at all" or "several days" or "more than half the days" or "nearly every day," with points (0 to 3) assigned to each category. The scores for each item are summed to produce a total score between 0 and 24 points. A total score of 0 to 4 represents no significant depressive symptoms. A total score of 5 to 9 represents mild depressive symptoms; 10 to 14, moderate; 15 to 19, moderately severe; and 20 to 24, severe.

The Behavioral Activation for Depression Scale (BADS) is a 25-item scale used to track changes in behaviors hypothesized to underlie depression and specifically targeted for change by behavioral activation. BADS items are rated on a 7-point scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 6 (completely). The behavioral activation subscale contains 7 items, with a scoring range of 0 to 42. Change scores reflect the value of the BADS behavioral activation subscale score at 8-week follow-up minus the baseline score. Positive change values indicate an increase in behavioral activation (i.e, an improvement), whereas negative scores indicate a decrease in behavioral activation.
