What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Recruitment Rate
Percentage of eligible participants approached for participation who provide informed consent and enroll in the study. Recruitment feasibility will be considered achieved if at least 70% of eligible participants approached enroll in the study.
Measured: During the recruitment period
Retention Rate
Percentage of enrolled participants who complete the 3-month follow-up assessment. Retention feasibility will be considered achieved if at least 75% of enrolled participants complete the 3-month follow-up assessment.
Measured: 3-month follow-up
Intervention Completion
Percentage of enrolled participants who complete all core intervention modules. Intervention feasibility will be considered achieved if at least 70% of enrolled participants complete the core intervention modules.
Measured: Over the 3-month intervention period
System Usability Scale (SUS) Score
Participant-reported usability of the intervention as assessed using the System Usability Scale (SUS), a 10-item questionnaire with total scores ranging from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate greater perceived usability. Acceptability will be considered satisfactory if the mean SUS score is at least 70.
Measured: 3-month follow-up
