Brief Summary

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

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to rigorously assess the efficacy of an 8-week social engagement OneClick intervention. A total of 120 older adults with and without mild cognitive impairment (60 per group) will be randomized after a baseline assessment to the social engagement OneClick intervention group or the waitlist control group. Participants assigned to the intervention group will receive the social engagement OneClick intervention for 8 weeks, and will complete a mid-assessment at week 4, and a post-assessment at week 8. Participants assigned to the waitlist control group will receive no intervention for the first 8 weeks and will complete assessments at week 4 and week 8. Subsequently, as an extension to this study, participants assigned to the waitlist control group will have an opportunity to participate in 8 weeks of social engagement OneClick intervention.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Participants will be screened and assigned to either intervention group or wait-listed group.

Primary Study Purpose

OTHER

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Investigators

All primary and secondary outcome assessments completed at Week 4 and Week 8 are blinded. Participants are told ahead of time to not share their group information with the blinded assessor during administration of measures. Supplementary outcome measures require the assessor to know the group assignment, as these measures pertain to their current experience in the intervention. Thus, all supplementary outcome measures are administered at a separate time by an unblinded assessor

OneClick Social Engagement Intervention Group

Intervention group participants will receive the social engagement OneClick intervention for 8 weeks, and will complete a mid-assessment at week 4, and a post-assessment at week 8.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

OneClick Social Engagement Intervention

Intervention Type OTHER

Intervention group participants will receive the social engagement OneClick intervention for 8 weeks, and will complete a mid-assessment at week 4, and a post-assessment at week 8. Participants will use a computer or tablet to participate in two social engagement events per week. The intervention events will be delivered through the OneClick video conferencing platform. During each session participants will watch a short slideshow around a series of topics (e.g., nature, technology, hobbies) and get to engage in conversations surround the topics presented, which will be held in breakout rooms. Breakout room discussions will be set for 30 minutes, and participants will be provided with questions surrounding the topics to help stimulate conversation.

OneClick Social Engagement Waitlist Control Group

Waitlist control group participants will receive no intervention for the first 8 weeks and will complete assessments at week 4 and week 8. Following the completion of the 8-week controlled portion, waitlist participants will be provided with the opportunity to participate in the OneClick social engagement intervention through the intervention extension.

Group Type OTHER

OneClick Social Engagement Intervention Extension

Intervention Type OTHER

Waitlist control group participants will receive no intervention for the first 8 weeks and will complete assessments at week 4 and week 8. Following the completion of the 8-week controlled portion, waitlist participants will be provided with the opportunity to participate in the OneClick social engagement intervention through the intervention extension. Waitlist participants will use a computer or tablet to participate in two social engagement events per week.
