Study Summary
This study is a randomized Type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of Empower@Home, an internet-delivered cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) program supported by social service providers, in comparison to enhanced usual care for depression in older adults with ambulatory disabilities. A total of 64 participants with ambulatory disabilities will be randomly assigned to either the treatment group (Empower@Home) or the control group (enhanced usual care) in a 1:1 allocation ratio. This project addresses the following research questions: 1. Does the intervention affect individuals' lives in the following expected areas? 1. Does participation in the intervention lead to greater improvement in depressive symptoms than enhanced care as usual? 2. Does participation in the intervention lead to greater improvement in social engagement and activities than enhanced care as usual? 3. Is the intervention's primary effect mediated by CBT-related (e.g., CBT skills acquisition, cognitive distortions, and behavioral activation), engagement-related (e.g., character or storyline relatedness), and coach-related factors (e.g., therapeutic alliance)? 2. How is the intervention being adopted? What are the barriers and facilitators encountered during the implementation process?
