Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryHamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HRSD) ChangeScreen, Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12Clinician-rated measure of depressive severity composed of 24 questions used to measure changes in depressive symptoms and monitor safety during the study.
PrimaryTreatment Credibility Expectancy Scale (CES) - item 4 ChangeBaseline, Week 0
Self-report scale in which subjects rate their impression of the credibility of the treatment and how they estimate their expectation of improvement. Item 4 measures how much improvement in depression symptoms is expected.
PrimaryProcessing Speed Change - WAIS-IV CodingBaseline, Weeks 4, 12
Processing speed will be assessed using Coding from the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV (WAIS-IV), the NIH Toolbox Pattern Comparison Processing Speed Test, and Trail Making Test A. From these 3 tests, a composite score (primary outcome) is derived by extracting a latent factor and factor loadings, creating a purer measure of processing speed than raw scores from an individual test or a sum total score.
PrimaryProcessing Speed Change - NIHH Toolbox Pattern Comparison Processing Speed TestBaseline, Weeks 4, 12
Processing speed will be assessed using Coding from the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV (WAIS-IV), the NIH Toolbox Pattern Comparison Processing Speed Test, and Trail Making Test A. From these 3 tests, a composite score (primary outcome) is derived by extracting a latent factor and factor loadings, creating a purer measure of processing speed than raw scores from an individual test or a sum total score.
PrimaryProcessing Speed Change - Trail Making Test ABaseline, Weeks 4, 12
Processing speed will be assessed using Coding from the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV (WAIS-IV), the NIH Toolbox Pattern Comparison Processing Speed Test, and Trail Making Test A. From these 3 tests, a composite score (primary outcome) is derived by extracting a latent factor and factor loadings, creating a purer measure of processing speed than raw scores from an individual test or a sum total score.
PrimaryResting State Functional Connectivity Index ChangeBaseline, Week 4Measure of resting state fMRI.
SecondarySecondary Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Severity and ImprovementScreen, Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12Scales measuring the clinician's view of subjects' global functioning that will provide a clinical assessment of subjects at each visit and help maintain safety by identifying clinical worsening.
SecondaryInventory for Depressive Symptomatology Self-Report (IDS-SR)Weeks 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12The IDS-SR is a standard self-report measure of depression severity that will be used to measure changes in depressive symptoms and monitor safety during the study.
SecondaryCumulative Illness Rating Scale for Geriatrics (CIRS-G)ScreenProvides quantitative ratings of chronic illness burden. Presence of illness is rated from 0 to 4 in 14 different medical domains. Scores range from 0-56.
SecondaryNIH Toolbox Auditory Verbal Learning Test - Rey (RAVLT)Baseline, Weeks 4, 12Measures immediate recall. Unrelated words presented via audio recording and participant recalls as many as possible
