Calmer Life: Treating Worry Among Older Adults In Underserved, Low-income, Minority Communities
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this research study is to see how helpful two different interventions offered through the Calmer Life program are in reducing worry and improving mood. The investigators also want to understand how a program like Calmer Life can be offered in underserved communities.

Detailed Description
Background: Recurrent, excessive, uncontrollable worry about multiple topics is common in older adults, but it is not well studied. This significant worry can negatively affect thinking, and it is associated with poorer sleep, more depression, and worse general health. Despite its prevalence, researchers have not studied significant worry enough, particularly in low-income racial and ethnic minority populations. We know these groups are unlikely to have adequate mental health care. We also know that older adults and minorities prefer treatments for worry that do not require medication, and that these kinds of treatments can be effective. Additional tests of treatments that do not involve drugs are needed in low-income racial and ethnic minority populations. Such person-centered research could expand access to appropriate care.
Objectives: The study team plans to compare two approaches, one called Calmer Life (CL) and another called Enhanced Community Care (ECC). CL helps individuals by providing worry-reduction skills and resource counseling for basic needs in a flexible, culturally supportive manner. ECC relies on standard information and resource counseling. The study will answer three questions. First, compared to ECC, is CL more effective at relieving significant worry? Second, which one is more effective at reducing anxiety and depression and improving sleep, ability to do daily activities, and use of medical services? Third, are improvements still present three months after treatment concludes?
Methods: In agreement with our community partners and governed by a council of community leaders, consumers, and providers from low-income minority communities, we will conduct the study. This community-academic partnership, created four years ago, introduced CL to the community. Case managers and community health workers from partner organizations were trained to implement CL. They taught worry-reduction skills and helped participants increase their use of community resources. Content was flexible so that participants could choose which skills to learn and whether or not to include religion or spirituality. They also could learn skills at home, by telephone, or in the community. In a new, larger comparison study, we will enroll 120 women and 30 men who are 50 years of age or older with significant worry. Most (80 percent) will be African American, and 70 percent will have income below poverty. Participants will be assigned by chance to CL or ECC and treated for six months. Brief assessments at enrollment and at six and nine months will rely on participants' reports. Differences will be measured statistically.

Primary Outcome Measures
- Penn State Worry Questionnaire - A (PSWQ-A) at 6 Months [Baseline, 6 months]
Brief measure of worry with 8 items measured on a 1-5 scale (1 = not at all typical, 3 = somewhat typical, 5 = very typical). Scores range from 8 to 40. Higher scores indicate greater anxiety.

Statistical Analysis 1
Statistical Analysis Overview | Comparison Group Selection | Calmer Life, Enhanced Community Care |
---|---|---|
Comments | Analyses were ITT using PROC MI and PROC MI ANALYZE in conjunction with ANCOVA. We expected to reject the null hypothesis of no treatment group difference in 6 month PSWQ-A, controlling for baseline PSWQ-A. Race/ethnicity and ERS-expectancies significantly differed between groups at baseline and were included as covariates. A total of 134 participants allowed for 80% power to detect moderate group differences (d=.49) in primary and secondary outcomes given a 2-tailed type 1 error rate of .05. | |

Comments | Analyses were ITT using PROC MI and PROC MI ANALYZE in conjunction with ANCOVA. We expected to reject the null hypothesis of no treatment group difference in 9 month PSWQ-A, controlling for baseline PSWQ-A. Race/ethnicity and ERS-expectancies significantly differed between groups at baseline and were included as covariates. A total of 134 participants allowed for 80% power to detect moderate group differences (d=.49) in primary and secondary outcomes given a 2-tailed type 1 error rate | |

---|---|---|
Comments | Analyses were ITT using PROC MI and PROC MI ANALYZE in conjunction with ANCOVA. We expected to reject the null hypothesis of no treatment group difference in 6 month SF-12, controlling for baseline SF-12. Race/ethnicity and ERS-expectancies significantly differed between groups at baseline and were included as covariates. A total of 134 participants allowed for 80% power to detect moderate group differences (d=.49) in primary and secondary outcomes given a 2-tailed type 1 error rate | |
