What this trial studies

This pilot randomized study tests a flexible, asynchronous digital mindfulness program called Wakeful among pediatric residents at Northwestern University. Participants are randomly assigned to either choose their program length (3, 5, or 7 weeks) or to be assigned a program length without choice. Primary outcomes focus on feasibility, acceptability, and user engagement, including number of sessions completed, usage patterns, satisfaction, and completion rates. Results will help determine if offering choice increases adherence and improves the user experience for trainee-targeted digital mindfulness interventions.
