- Satisfaction assessed by study-specific survey during the intervention - Acceptability [During intervention]
The intervention will be deemed acceptable if, on average, participants report satisfaction with the weekly sessions as ≥2 on a 0-4 scale.
- Satisfaction assessed by study-specific survey after the intervention - Acceptability [Immediately after the intervention]
The intervention will be deemed acceptable if, on average, participants report satisfaction with the overall program and intent to continue using the intervention skills as ≥2 on a 0-4 scale.
- Session attendance after the intervention - Acceptability [Immediately after the intervention]
Videoconference delivery will be acceptable if average group attendance is ≥6/10 sessions.
