Active Control
Group I: InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The THRIVE app involves 3 weeks of daily activities. Day 1 involves identification of activities to add to a "self-care activity list" with guidance around selecting activities that increase social contact, reduce alcohol use, and reduce avoidance. They will also complete an active-learning exercise about cognitive distortions and create a "stuck point to-do list" consisting of their cognitive distortions. In subsequent days, participants will be prompted to complete activities from both lists. They will also have access optional activities on topics such as asking for help, preventing isolation, deciding whether to disclose an assault, coping with negative reactions to disclosure, and thinking in helpful ways about social support. They will be prompted to complete brief daily surveys in the app, which will populate a symptom tracker. Participants in will have brief weekly phone contact with a coach to monitor safety and troubleshoot issues with app use.
Group II: Assessment-only controlActive Control1 Intervention
The assessment-only control condition will involve access to a version of the app that includes daily surveys and a symptom tracker populated by these surveys, but without any of the other exercises included in the experimental version of the app. Participants in the control condition will have brief weekly phone contact with a coach to monitor safety and troubleshoot issues with app use.
