Study summary

This study is testing the acceptability and feasibility of an active, experiential group therapy for health behavior change within a medical setting.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the current study is to offer a preliminary test of feasibility and acceptability for a group intervention, conducted in a primary care setting, that aims to teach skills that initiate health behavior change. Participants will be recruited from a local family medicine clinic and groups will be held on site at the clinic. Patients will be recruited by their physicians and given a baseline survey of their exercise and nutrition behaviors as well as their overall well being and self efficacy to change their health behaviors. Participants can join the group at any time and attend as many sessions as desired. Groups are held 2 times per month and include worksheets, meditations, and exercise. Patients and their providers will be given 2 follow up surveys after 5 and 13 weeks to assess for acceptability and feasibility of the program, as well as health behavior change. Statistical analyses will include multivariate analyses, descriptive analyses, and frequency data collection.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Oct 2017 to primary completion in Jul 2018, 9 months.

Of 568 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Health Behavior, half reached primary completion within 15 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 33. This study's 9 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 586 studies reached it within 15 months; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 32.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 26, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
