Evaluation of the Readiness Supportive Leadership Training - National Guard
Sponsor: Oregon Health and Science University
Summary
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate an intervention aimed at increasing the support leaders in the National Guard provide to their subordinates to promote mental health and well-being and reduce risk factors. Survey data will be collected from leaders, service members (SMs) and spouse/partners to evaluate the training effectiveness. The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate efficacy in the NG, including effects on leaders, SMs, and spouse/partners on the following outcomes: H1: Leaders in the intervention group will demonstrate significant improvements in digital learning effects from pre-test to post-test. H2: The intervention will significantly decrease SM and Leader reports of problematic anger, loneliness, and psychological distress 6-months and then 12-months post-baseline. H3: Spouses/partners of SMs in the intervention group will report decreases in problematic anger, loneliness, and psychological distress at 6 and 12 months. Researchers will compare those in the training intervention group to a wait-list control group. The leadership training builds on a training evaluated in a previous RCT (NCT04152824) adapting from active duty Army to National Guard, including Air NG, and adding an additional facilitated session component. The intervention will include: (1) a 1-hour digital learning utilizing an interactive and self-paced computer-based training, (2) an behavior tracking exercise, and (3) a 1-hour facilitated session, approximately one month later.

Interventions
Readiness Supportive Leadership Training for the National Guard (RESULT-NG)
RESULT-NG is a multi-level intervention where leaders receive the training intervention, with evaluation of effects at the subordinate, leader and spouse levels. RESULT-NG consists of three distinct but related components: 1) a 60-minute, multimedia, interactive digital-learning training session, 2) a two-week behavior tracking exercise that takes less than 2 minutes/day after the digital learning to put what was learned into practice, and 3) a 60-minute facilitated session, either in person or virtual, with trained staff embedded within the National Guard.
