Study: NCT04044183

Intervention type: BEHAVIORAL
Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Active Brains 1
Description: Active Brains uses a multimodal approach to introduce and reinforce new skills, including didactics, in-session activities, discussions, and weekly practice assignments (homework). The Active Brains sessions reflect a purposeful integration of the three treatment approaches (relaxation methods, stress appraisal \& coping, and growth enhancement). The format is an 8-week program with weekly meetings and a focus on relaxation response strategies, cognitive behavioral training, positive psychology and mind-body interactions. Active Brains 1 uses a digital monitoring device (i.e., Fitbit) for recording of physical activity.

Intervention: Active Brains 2
Description: This active comparison condition controls for the effect of time spent, group member support/feedback, and interventionist support/feedback. The original HEP was adapted to provide population-specific information on chronic pain and MCI/MRP symptoms. Participants also receive lifestyle education consistent from public health recommendations and standards for health promotion (e.g., Sleep, Nutrition, Healthy Weight, and Medical appointments). The HEP program consists on 8 group sessions (each session is 90 minutes) that occur concurrently with the active intervention condition. The HEP is conducted in the same format as Active Brains-Fitbit but are not taught the mind-body, walking, or cognitive-behavioral skills. HEP participants are encouraged to set lifestyle goals instead of quota-based walking goals aided by the Fitbit as in the Active Brains-Fitbit condition.
