摘要

背景:注意控制是临床试验的重要组成部分,可以从干预的效果来解析注意的影响。不良的对照组设计可能导致意想不到的结果,高估干预措施的有效性,或威胁到潜在的有益治疗。本文的目的是描述一种利用TED演讲的新型注意力控制的发展,并为注意力控制条件的设计提供建议。方法:选取24篇TED演讲作为对照。讲座时间从6.0分钟到19.1分钟不等,总时长为4小时12分(平均10分30秒)。主题包括教育、科技、健康、空间、人类行为、卫生、养育子女、悬崖攀登、公开演讲、幸福、讣告、拖延症和年龄多样性。然后我们提出了3到4个简单的问题来反映谈话的内容。答案从对/错到4个选择题。每个注意控制环节选择4到5个视频,并捆绑创建一个大约90分钟的注意控制条件,以匹配干预(针灸)环节(45分钟× 10个环节)。讨论:我们开发了一种注意力控制条件,满足以下关键要求:(1)与实验组的注意力相当,(2)能够保持参与者兴趣的设计,(3)标准化以避免潜在的混淆结果,(4)评估期望。结论:研究者可以在我们的方案指导下使用TED演讲建立严格的注意力控制条件。

Designing an Attention Control Condition for a Randomized Controlled Trial Using TED Talks.

Background: Attention control is an important part of clinical trials, allowing the influence of attention to be parsed from the effects of the intervention. Poor control group design can lead to unintended outcomes, overestimate the effectiveness of an intervention, or threaten a potentially beneficial treatment. The aims of this paper were to describe the development of a novel attention control using TED Talks and provide recommendations for the design of an attention control condition.

Methods: Twenty-four TED Talks were selected for inclusion in the control condition. The talks ranged from 6.0 to 19.1 minutes for a total length of 4 hours and 12 minutes (mean = 10 minutes, 30 seconds). Topics included education, technology, health, space, human behavior, sanitation, parenting, cliff climbing, public speaking, happiness, obituaries, procrastination, and age diversity. We then developed 3 to 4 simple questions reflecting the content of the Talk. Responses ranged from true/false to 4 multiple-choice answers. Four to five videos were selected for each attention control session and bundled to create an approximately 90-minute attention control condition to match the intervention (acupuncture) session (45 minutes × 10 sessions).

Discussion: We developed an attention control condition that met crucial requirements of (1) equivalent attention to that of the experimental group, (2) a design that can hold the participant's interest, (3) standardization to avoid potentially confounding outcomes, and (4) the evaluation of expectancy.

Conclusion: Investigators can develop a rigorous attention control condition using TED Talks guided by our protocol.
