| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Intervention acceptability as measured by the Acceptability of Intervention Measure | The Acceptability of Intervention Measure is a 4-item scale that assesses the extent to which participants find the intervention agreeable or satisfactory. Items are rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (Completely disagree) to 5 (Completely agree). Scores are averaged to create a total score, with higher scores indicating greater perceived acceptability of the intervention. Example items include: "I like [intervention]" and "[intervention] meets my approval." | One-month follow-up |
| Intervention appropriateness as measured by the Intervention Appropriateness Measure | The Intervention Appropriateness Measure is a 4-item scale designed to assess how suitable or relevant the intervention is for the target population. Each item is rated from 1 (Completely disagree) to 5 (Completely agree), and a total score is calculated by averaging responses. Higher scores reflect a stronger belief that the intervention is appropriate for the individual's needs or situation. Example items include: "[intervention] seems like a good match" and "[intervention] seems suitable." | One-month follow up |
| Intervention feasibility as measured by the Feasibility of Intervention Measure | The Feasibility of Intervention Measure includes 4 items that measure how practical and doable the intervention seems from the participant's perspective. Participants respond on a 5-point scale from 1 (Completely disagree) to 5 (Completely agree), with higher average scores indicating greater perceived feasibility. Example items include: "[intervention] seems implementable" and "[intervention] seems easy to use." | One-month follow up |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Intervention engagement as measured by VR mindfulness app use frequency | Engagement with the intervention will be measured by the frequency of VR mindfulness app use, as recorded by the TRIPP app. The system captures the number of times participants launch and complete mindfulness sessions during the study period. Higher session counts reflect greater engagement with the intervention. There is no maximum score, and a higher number of sessions indicates more frequent use of the app. |
