The Formative and Summative Evaluations Yielded Similar Findings- The main finding from the formative evaluation is that the development of SimCoach had a greater focus on user experiences than on the outcome of interest for our study — the efficacy of SimCoach in improving users' intentions to seek help.
- The main finding from the summative evaluation is that participants who used SimCoach did not report greater help-seeking intentions than participants receiving no intervention.

摘要 |
- These recommendations are for both the SimCoach developers and the Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury (DCoE), which funded SimCoach development.
- SimCoach developers should implement best practices for the development of help-seeking interventions; consider new approaches to SimCoach marketing to promote the novelty of the intervention; use validated screening instruments when possible to ensure that these instruments have sufficient reliability, sensitivity, and specificity; consider using an outcome-oriented, iterative development process during subsequent improvements to the SimCoach intervention; continue to design new dialogue and content to meet SimCoach goals of reaching a target audience of service members, veterans, and family members; if future versions are found to be effective, develop versions of SimCoach that are compatible with mobile devices and web browsers; and consider using SimCoach in other cases in which potentially sensitive questionnaires and information may be delivered.
- When considering involvement with SimCoach and similar programs, DCoE should consider changing funding models to motivate best practices in intervention development (e.g., requiring submission of pilot data prior to funding larger technology-development projects or requiring the use of validated instruments); support pilot evaluations and dissemination approaches in different contexts; consider investing in strategies to guide the development of technology-based clinical interventions; and play an active role in design and monitoring of outcome-oriented progress metrics for technology-development projects.
