About this study

The purposes of this new study are to test among adolescent viewers the utility of brief video-based interventions to:

  1. reduce transphobia;
  2. reduce depression-related stigma and increase likelihood of treatment-seeking; and
  3. examine the role of viewer's sex (male / female / non-binary), race (Black vs non-Black), and sexual orientation (straight vs LGBQ) as independent factors on the outcomes of interest.
Read the detailed description

Intervention videos will each be of ~100-second duration and feature four underage professionals (ages 16) acting as simulated patients. All videos will focus on an empowered presenter with depression sharing their personal story regarding depression. They will describe how social supports from family, friends, and community, as well as professional help assisted them in overcoming symptoms of the illness, as well as how being transgender may have had an impact on it. The four actors will include two males (one trans, one cis) and tow females (one trans, one cis).

Assessments will occur at baseline and post-intervention, and will include:

  1. Demographics (baseline only);
  2. Primary outcome:
  3. Attitudes toward Transgender Men and Women (ATTMW) scale.
  4. Secondary outcome:
  5. Transgender attitudes: feelings thermometer, modeled after Norton et al 2013.
  6. Depression-related stigma (Depression Stigma Scale [DSS]);and
  7. Help-seeking (General Help-Seeking Questionnaire [GHSQ]).

For each of study we intend to randomly assign ~1,000 individuals aged 14-18 as follows:

Randomized, in equal proportions, and stratified by sex and race, to view one of four ~100-second videos:

  1. Transgender male;
  2. Cis-gender male);
  3. Transgender female;
  4. Cis-gender female.

    Intervention videos will each be of 90-second duration and feature four underage professionals (ages 16) acting as simulated patients. All videos will focus on an empowered presenter with depression sharing their personal story regarding depression and describe how social supports from family, friends, and community, as well as professional help assisted them in overcoming symptoms of their illness. The actors will include a transgender male, a cis-gender male, a transgender female, and a cis-gender female.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Attitudes toward Transgender Men and Women (ATTMW) scale

    Attitudes toward Transgender Men and Women (ATTMW; Billard, 2018) is a scale to measure transphobic attitudes. It is a 24-item scale consisting of two similar but non-identical 12-item subscales, one for transgender males (ATTM), and one for women (ATTW). In this study, the study team will assign only one of the two subscales, according to the condition that subjects as randomly assigned to: those viewing the transgender adolescent male will be assigned to the ATTM; those to the female, to the ATTW. The results of both subscales are compatible with each other and can be merged into a single ATMW score. Each of the items is a statement on which participants are asked to rate their agreement on a 7-point Likert-type scale: from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Higher scores indicate greater anti-transgender prejudice, while lower scores indicate less prejudice.

    The first 9 items are the same for the ATTM and AATW. Items 10-12 are unique for each of the two scales. These

Secondary outcomes (47)

  1. Change in transgender attitudes: feelings thermometer

    This study will utilize a scale called feelings thermometer, modeled after Norton and Herek, 2013:

    "Using a scale from zero to 100, please tell us your personal feelings toward each of the following groups of friends, teachers, or colleagues. As you do this task, think of an imaginary thermometer. The warmer or more favorable you feel toward the group, the higher the number you should give it. The colder or less favorable you feel, the lower the number. If you feel neither warm nor cold toward the group, rate it 50." To familiarize respondents with the response format, they will be first presented with thermometers for "Men in general" and "Women in general," with each respondent rating her or his own sex first. Next, they rate different gender groups (transgender males, transgender females). Higher ratings (maximum 100) indicate warmer, more favorable feelings toward the target whereas lower ratings (minimum 0) indicate colder, more negative feelings.

    Measured: Before / after viewing videos (within 10 minutes)

  2. Change in Depression-related stigma (Depression Stigma Scale [DSS]; Personal component only): TOTAL SCORE

    The DSS (Christensen, Jorm, Evans, \& Groves, 2004) is a self-report instrument composed of two 9-item subscales. The first subscale measures the participants' own/ personal attitudes, and the second measures participants' beliefs about the attitudes of others ('Depression is sign of weakness' vs. 'Most people believe that depression is a sign of weakness'). The Personal subscale (DSS-Personal) will be used in this study. The DSS has a 5-point Likert scale ranging from strongly disagree (1) to strongly agree (5). The total score comprises the sum of its item scores, and a higher score indicates more stigma (worse outcome). The DSS-Personal subscale has shown adequate psychometric properties: 0.71 test-retest reliability, 0.76 internal consistency (Griffiths et al., 2004). In our earlier study (Amsalem and Martin, 2021), Cronbach's a was .83.

    Measured: Before / after viewing videos (within 10 minutes)

  3. Change in Help-seeking (General Help-Seeking Questionnaire [GHSQ]; Emotional and Suicide components): MEAN SCORE

    The General Help-Seeking Questionnaire (GHSQ) (Wilson, Deane, Marshall, \& Dalley, 2008) was developed to measure help-seeking intentions from different sources (friend, parent, mental health professional, and others) and is divided into personal-emotional problems and suicidal thoughts (Ibrahim et al., 2019). The instrument consists of 10 items for each part, each rated on a 0 (extremely unlikely) to 7 (extremely likely)Likert scale. Higher scores on this scale indicate more help seeking (better outcome).

    If you were having a personal or emotional problem, how likely is it that you would seek help from the following people?

A study testing Short videos in people with Transgenderism and Depression, run by Yale University at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Attitudes toward Transgender Men and Women (ATTMW) scale (time frame: Before / after viewing videos (within 10 minutes)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04969003, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 May 2022.
