Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Asynchronous self-directed digital trainingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
A digital training program platform that delivers an interactive case-based modular curriculum covering evidence-based psychotherapy principles and IPT-specific principles and strategies with homework will take roughly 13 hours to complete, with 4.5 hours of online learning, and an additional 7.5 hours of reading and homework assignments. The reading and homework includes viewing captioned videotaped role plays and completing self-directed lesson plans. The digital curriculum leverages audio, video, and visual content, and is self-directed - for completion within a 2-week period. Residents can access this content through a smartphone, tablet or computer at their own pace, revisit modules and digital content as needed, and access a curated list of additional resources to supplement their learning.
Group II: Synchronous large group online workshopActive Control1 Intervention
This condition will reflect training as usual. Training will involve the same content contained in the asynchronous self-directed digital training platform, except delivered over a one day (4.5 hours of online instruction) workshop; and residents will be required to do the same reading and homework of lesson plans and viewing of the on-line videotaped role plays (an additional ~7.5 hours in total).
