Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Intervention sessions along with GROV engagement
Participants in the experimental group will attend three highly structured Virtual intervention sessions, hosted on Zoom and facilitated by trained research team members. They will also be encouraged to sign up for GROV after completing the baseline and are expected to engage with the GROV platform throughout the study period. The GROV platform will serve as a digital community space for ongoing interaction and discussion.
Virtual Community Intervention
Participants will attend three Virtual intervention sessions, hosted on Zoom and facilitated by trained research team members. Co-facilitators (comprised of lab staff) will also be there to ensure no technical difficulties and record the meeting. Sessions will be held at the same time each week for three weeks. After each session, facilitators will be assessed for fidelity based on feedback from the session quality assessment survey.
Every session will have its primary focus, respectively:
Session 1 will focus on fostering social connections. Session 2 will focus on setting mental/physical wellbeing goals. Session 3 will focus on pursuing similar goals for their community.
During the sessions, participants will work together and offer mutual support under the direction of the facilitator. Furthermore, facilitators will communicate with participants between sessions to check in on their progress toward their goals.
Self-help sessions without GROV engagement
Participants will attend loosely structured, self-run, virtual group self-help sessions at the same time and duration as intervention sessions. No discussion on the GROV platform for the control group.
Control
Participants will attend three 90-minute Virtual self-help sessions, hosted on Zoom. Sessions will be held at the same time each week for three weeks, in parallel to the experimental condition. First, the co-facilitator will let participants into the Zoom room and begin the recording. After they introduce themselves, they will remain on mute/camera off for the entire meeting to handle technical difficulties or intervene when violations occur, for example, using inappropriate language. Co-facilitators may also interact with participants through the chat to provide referrals. Then, the discussion leader will explain their role and ask everyone to introduce themselves. As a group, they will set some ground rules. Then, the discussion leaders will guide the discussion, using the Self-Help Session Manual as a reference, which provides structure and reference questions to facilitate discussion. Beyond this guideline, participants can discuss anything they decide as a group.
