Official title
The Use of Implementation Intentions to Increase the Appointment Attendance of Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) Veterans
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of the current pilot study will be to utilize implementation intentions to increase patient compliance with appointment attendance. Participants in the current study will be individuals referred for evaluation of their treatment needs. Experimental groups will create a simple induction consisting of "what/when/where" statements (implementation intentions) with the intention of increasing their rate of calling to schedule and subsequently attend appointments associated with their care. It is anticipated that participants who take an active role in their plan and utilize the implementation intention procedures will be more likely to make and attend the appointments suggested by their treating clinician. This pilot project will provide valuable initial data as to the potential effectiveness of a simple, cost-effective means of increasing appointment attendance. If successful, it could lead to cost savings and a decrease in the appointment wait time for people by increasing the utilization of available appointments.
