INcentives and ReMINDers to Improve Long-term Medication Adherence (INMIND)
REFNo: HS1286ES
We propose to test INMIND in a pilot, 3-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) in Uganda with two intervention groups. All participants (including in the control group) will receive information about the importance of behavioral routines, as is part of the standard adherence counseling for treatment initiators, and create personalized ART adherence anchoring strategies. In the first intervention group, participants will additionally receive text messages to keep adherence and their anchoring strategy salient. In the second group, we add small incentives awarded conditionally on taking ART pills within a time window that corresponds to participants’ personalized anchoring strategy to increase the immediate rewards of adherence.
The Specific Aims
1.Develop the intervention using the ADAPT-ITT framework and evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of INMIND.
2: Test the preliminary effectiveness of the intervention, including the relative effectiveness of two different implementation approaches
3. Collect data in preparation for a subsequent R01 application
