“…Modified Brinley plots will be used to visually display data. Modified Brinley plots offer a means of conveniently identifying and interpreting changes at an idiographic level [ 50 , 51 ]. Modified Brinley plots also allow for the inclusion of cutoff points based on a measure’s reliable change index, meaning that clinically meaningful idiographic patterns can be quickly observed and interpreted [ 51 ].…”

Background Research indicates that the management of distress levels in those with cardiac disease is not only important for improving quality of life and functioning but also critical for condition management; adherence to treatment; and, ultimately, disease prognosis and progression. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) has consistently demonstrated positive long-term outcomes across a wide array of conditions, including chronic illness. However, most empirical investigations conducted to date have also involved in-person therapy, which can be difficult to access, particularly for those dealing with the demands of chronic disease. Objective The objective of our research is to evaluate a digital ACT intervention for improving self-management behaviors and distress levels in those with cardiac conditions. Methods The digital ACT intervention will be delivered via a digital health self-management platform over 6 sessions. This will involve a randomized, multiple baseline, single case experimental design with approximately 3 to 15 adults with cardiac disease. The independent variable for each participant will be the pre-post intervention phase. The dependent variables will be a daily self-report measure of psychological flexibility as well as objective measures of condition self-management (eg, blood pressure readings) and engagement with the app (eg, completing guided mindfulness). One-to-one qualitative interviews will also be conducted to further examine participants’ experiences with using the intervention and what factors contribute to or impede successful outcomes. Results Participant recruitment and data collection began in October 2021, and it is projected that the study findings will be available for dissemination by spring 2022. Conclusions The findings will be discussed in terms of how a digital ACT intervention can best meet the needs of cardiac patients.

“…We take an idiographic approach, exploring the actions of specific individuals to provide a more in-depth understanding of the factors influencing cat containment behaviour of cat adopters, and the efficacy of an education intervention [ 20 , 21 ]. The results from this research will be used to better understand RSPCA cat adopters, and help identify barriers to cat containment which can be used to guide the development of more targeted strategies to assist individual cat owners contain their pet.…”

In Australia, cat owners are encouraged to keep their pet cats contained on their property at all times. This study explores the relationship between the intentions and behaviours of 72 kitten and cat adopters from a RSPCA Queensland animal shelter, to provide a more in-depth understanding of the factors influencing the adoption of cat containment behaviours. At the time of adoption, 64 participants (89%) indicated they were intending to keep their cat fully contained. Eight weeks after adoption, 63 participants (87%) reported they were doing so (59 who had stated their intention at the time of adoption, and 4 who had not). We found cat owner containment behaviour was moderately correlated with containment intentions. For some of the participants when it came to enacting this behaviour, their intentions and the provided education information was not enough to overcome the more compelling capability, opportunity and motivational factors which presented themselves once they got home. We were able to identify these factors and suggest additional behaviour change strategies that would assist. Although it is important to provide cat adopters with advice about how to contain their cats properly, these results also highlight the importance of focusing attention on other behaviour change strategies that address the particular barriers faced by some cat-owners who are unsuccessful in keeping their cat contained on their property.
