Experimental Design (Public)
|
Before
The trial is designed as a stratified randomized trial. Within each municipality, participants are randomly assigned to either NExTWORK (the treatment group, T) or service as usual (the control group, C). The aim is to have an average of 45 individuals in the treatment group at any point in time in each municipality throughout the project period. The number of individuals randomized into the treatment and control groups will be adjusted to meet this target. Expected average programme participation duration is 6 months per person, meaning we expect to treat 90 youth per municipality per year. The number of individuals randomized to the study will adjust to ensure that this target is met.
The intervention is currently being conducted in five municipalities: Roskilde, Copenhagen, Sønderborg, Horsens and Vejle.
