About this study

Official title: Stop Addiction Stigma Training Workshop With Case Vignettes to Decrease Stigmatizing Attitudes Toward People With Substance Abuse Disorders

This clinical trial evaluates the impact of a Stop Addiction Stigma (SAS) training workshop with a short description of the conditions related to addiction (vignettes) on stigmatizing attitudes toward individuals with substance abuse disorders. Reviews have shown that patients with substance abuse disorders have experienced negative attitudes from their health care providers. Negative attitudes may lead to less involvement from the provider and the patient and may lead to less effective care. Using case vignettes with a SAS workshop may be an effective method to help people learn about addiction, reduce the stigma toward addiction and improve the quality of health care.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To describe the impact of SAS training on participants' responses to people with a substance impairment.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the feasibility of stigma training workshops on stigmatizing attitudes health care personnel.

II. To explore the maintainability of responses over time. III. To explore relationships between language and stigmatizing attitudes.

OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 6 group case vignettes.

GROUP A (CHRONICALLY RELAPSING BRAIN DISEASE): Participants view the chronically relapsing brain disease vignette and attend a SAS workshop on study.

GROUP B (BRAIN DISEASE): Participants view the brain disease vignette and attend a SAS workshop on study.

GROUP C (DISEASE): Participants view the disease vignette and attend a SAS workshop on study.

GROUP D (ILLNESS): Participants view the illness vignette and attend a SAS workshop on study.

GROUP E (DISORDER): Participants view the disorder vignette and attend a SAS workshop on study.

GROUP F (PROBLEM): Participants view the problem vignette and attend a SAS workshop on study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Stigmatizing attitudes

    Stigmatizing attitudes will be measured with the Stigma and Attribution Assessment. The assessment score will be compared both between and within participants for each case vignette. Results will be reported with descriptive statistics, including means and standard deviations or medians and first-third quartiles for continuous variables, and frequencies and percentages for discrete variables.The linear mixed effect model will be used to study the repeated stigma and attribution measures over time (pre-workshop, immediately post-workshop, and 8 weeks post-workshop) within 6 vignettes as well as the effects between the vignettes, while controlling for the potential confounding factors (e.g., sex).

    Measured: Before, immediately after and 8 weeks after the session

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Attendance rate

    The proportion of participants attending the workshop will be summarized with 95% confidence interval.

    Measured: At 90 minute session.

  2. Response to post-workshop evaluations

    The proportion of participants who respond to the post-workshop evaluations will be summarized with 95% confidence interval.

    Measured: Before, immediately following and 8 weeks after the session.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

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?

Stigmatizing attitudes (time frame: Before, immediately after and 8 weeks after the session). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 Sep 2024.
