The long-term goal of this project is to determine the effectiveness of these interventions at this medical center and to use this experience for a multi-site cooperative study proposal.\n\nResearch Design and Methods: One hundred and fifty subjects accepted into work services at this medical center will be randomly assigned to one of two conditions: Work Feedback with Small Rewards, or Usual Services. In the Work Feedback with Small Rewards condition, participants attend a weekly workers meeting where they receive specific feedback based upon the Work Behavior Inventory and set weekly goals. They also receive small rewards for goal achievement that equal $10 per month. Participants in the Usual Services condition do not get specific work feedback but receive all the usual work services normally provided. They also receive $10 per month for active participation. Assessments include baseline evaluations of mental and physical health, social function, cognitive function, and quality of life. Evaluations of mental health, quality of life, and job satisfaction will occur at two months and four months. Six-month and twelve month evaluations will repeat the baseline assessment. Outcome measures will include biweekly work performance assessments, vocational outcomes, mental and physical health status, social and cognitive function, and quality of life'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Veterans participating in a work program at the VA Connecticut Healthcare System; English-speaking\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* No exclusion criteria based upon diagnosis, although VA work programs have pre-existing requirements such as a demonstrated need for services, a referral from a clinician, and an interest in work rehabilitation'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00333658', 'briefTitle': 'A Behavioral Intervention to Improve Work Outcomes', 'organization': {'class': 'FED', 'fullName': 'VA Office of Research and Development'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Behavioral Intervention to Improve Outcomes in VA Work Programs', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'D3108R'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'MDB0007'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': '1', 'description': 'Intervention', 'interventionNames': ['Behavioral: Goal setting and work feedback group']}, {'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': '2', 'description': 'Work Services'}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Goal setting and work feedback group', 'type': 'BEHAVIORAL', 'description': 'Goal setting and feedback using WBI', 'armGroupLabels': ['1']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '06516', 'city': 'West Haven', 'state': 'Connecticut', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'VA Connecticut Health Care System (West Haven)', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 41.27065, 'lon': -72.94705}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Morris D Bell, PhD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'VA Connecticut Health Care System (West Haven)'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'US Department of Veterans Affairs', 'class': 'FED'}, 'responsibleParty': {'oldNameTitle': 'Bell, Morris - Principal Investigator', 'oldOrganization': 'Department of Veterans Affairs'}}}}
