After the patient checked in, they approached the patient to explain the study. If the patient consented to participate, the RA asked them to complete the questionnaires while in the clinic. After completed, sufferers deposited the questionnaires into a designated box. If individuals chose not to participate, they checked off their reason for not performing so (or the RA asked them and did this) and submitted the uncompleted questionnaires. RAs contacted patients 3, 6, and 12-months later through e-mail or phone. If the patient offered an e-mail address for the duration of their initial assessment, RAs sent them an automated email inviting them to finish the follow-up on-line. If they didn't respond one week immediately after the reminder, RAs added their name to the automatically generated telephone list and contacted them by phone. RAs produced three calls at various times of theGiese-Davis et al.
