The goal of this randomized pilot clinical trial is to describe the feasibility of a couple-based lifestyle intervention and the study protocol in preparation for a future definitive randomized clinical trial. Participants include individuals at risk for type 2 diabetes and their romantic partners.
The main objectives are:
Participating couples will be randomized to one of two year-long lifestyle intervention conditions: an individual curriculum or a couple-based curriculum.
Participants will complete assessments before and after the year-long intervention, as well as monthly during the intervention. Data will be collected on: feasibility, background, health behaviors, physical and mental health, and relationship functioning.
The goal of this randomized pilot clinical trial is to describe the feasibility of a couple-based lifestyle intervention and the study protocol in preparation for a future definitive randomized clinical trial. Participants include individuals at risk for type 2 diabetes and their romantic partners.
Prior to all study procedures, eligible participants will be required to complete an informed consent process and electronically sign a consent document. 12 eligible couples will be randomly assigned to either an individual lifestyle intervention (PreventT2) or a couple-based adaptation designed with input from a community advisory board (PreventT2 Together) (1:1). Both curricula have CDC approval for use in the National DPP and are delivered to small groups of participants over the course of 12 months.
Across conditions, participants will complete assessments before and after the year-long intervention, as well as monthly during the intervention. Data will be collected on: feasibility, background, health behaviors, physical and mental health, and relationship functioning.

| PreventT2 (Individual intervention) | Behavioral | PreventT2 will be delivered by a team of trained CDC Lifestyle Coaches to adults at high risk for diabetes. The 2021 version of the curriculum that will be used is freely available from the CDC. The intervention will be delivered in the context of the University of Utah National Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), which has "full" recognition from the CDC based on outcome data over the course of a number of years. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Couple-based intervention feasibility | Participants will complete the Theoretical Framework of Acceptability-Based Questionnaire and two open-ended survey items developed by the research team monthly during the intervention and at post-intervention. Participants will also complete a post-intervention qualitative joint couple interview that utilizes a semi-structured couple interview guide. Lifestyle Coaches will also report on attendance, completion of weekly activity logs, and completion of make-up sessions. The team of Lifestyle Coaches delivering PreventT2 Together will also complete open-ended items developed by the research team following each class. Lifestyle Coaches will also complete a measure of barriers to participation and lifestyle change they observed among the participants, as well as several measures based on implementation outcomes (i.e., Acceptability of Intervention Measure, Intervention Appropriateness Measure, Feasibility of Intervention Measure). | 1.5 years |
| Study protocol feasibility | Participants will report on perceptions of the study protocol in a post-intervention qualitative joint couple interview that utilizes a semi-structured couple interview guide. The guide includes specific prompts focused on recruitment, randomization, and assessments. In addition to these qualitative data collected from participants, data on recruitment feasibility will also be collected with an item on the contact form potential participants complete. Data on assessment feasibility will also be collected based on completion of measures and the length of time participants spend on these measures at each assessment. | 1.5 years |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Physical activity. | Assessed pre/post-intervention with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)-Long and a 7-day accelerometer assessment. Assessed monthly with the IPAQ-7 day. Participants will also self-report minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity over the past week at each attended intervention class. IPAQ questionnaires assess self-reported walking, moderate intensity, and vigorous intensity physical activity as well as overall sedentary time. Accelerometers provide objective assessments of these constructs. |

| PreventT2 Together (Couple-based intervention) | Behavioral | PreventT2 Together will be delivered by a team of trained CDC Lifestyle Coaches to adults at high risk for diabetes and their partners. The curriculum was developed with the input of a community advisory board and was approved by the CDC for use in the National DPP (i.e., meets CDC Diabetes Prevention Recognition Program Standards, including 22+ classes delivered over the course of 12 months and targeting lifestyle changes to prevention type 2 diabetes). In contrast to PreventT2, the intervention includes content specific to couples with prompts encouraging partners to consider and discuss how they can best support one another, information about lifestyle intervention in a relationship context, and examples demonstrating how couples collaborated to make healthy lifestyle changes. |

| Diet. | Assessed pre/post-intervention with the Automated Self-Administered 24-hr diet assessment from the NCI (ASA-24). The ASA is a detailed 24-hour recall of food including portion sizes and preparation. Assessed pre/post-intervention and monthly during the intervention with the Rapid Eating Assessment for Participants- Shortened Version (REAP-S), a brief measure of diet quality and content over an average week. | 1.5 years |
| Sleep. | Assessed pre/post-intervention and monthly with the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Sleep Disturbance 8a item scale (SD) and the PROMIS Sleep-Related Impairment 8a item scale (SRI). Participants will also self-report their daily sleep during the 7-day pre/post-intervention accelerometer wear. The SD assesses sleep quality with 8 statements including "my sleep was restless," and the SRI assesses the impact of poor sleep and sleepiness on daily behaviors with 8 statements including "I had problems during the day because of poor sleep." Item responses on both measures range from 1 (not at all) to 5 (very much). | 1.5 years |

| Affect. | Participants will complete the Positive and Negative Affective Scale (PANAS) daily during the pre/post-intervention 7-day accelerometer wear. The PANAS assesses positive and negative affect over the last day with 20 items. Participants rate from 1 (very slightly to none at all) to 7 (extremely) the extent to which they experienced each item (e.g., "nervous") in the past day. | 1.5 years |
| Relationship satisfaction. | Assessed pre/post-intervention and monthly with the 16-item Couples Satisfaction Index (CSI), a measure of overall relationship satisfaction. Assessed daily during the pre/post-intervention 7-day accelerometer wear using a brief 4-item version of the CSI. | 1.5 years |
| Partner support. | Assessed pre/post-intervention and at months 3, 6, 9 during the intervention, with the Social support and Exercise Survey and the Social Support and Eating Habits Survey. These measures assess the amount of support individuals seeking to exercise regularly perceive from family members and the amount of support individuals seeking to improve their diet receive from family members. Participants will also report on daily emotional and instrumental support during the pre/post-intervention 7-day accelerometer wear. | 1.5 years |
