Randomized
Randomization description
Assigning participants to two intervention groups is done by simple randomization and lottery. After selecting all the eligible patients, two envelopes containing cards A (representative of the intervention group) or B (representative of the control group) are given to each patient by a therapist, who is not aware of the contents of the envelopes, to choose one envelope.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
After selecting all eligible patients, the initial evaluation and re-evaluation are done by a therapist who is not one of the study researchers and is unfamiliar with the grouping of patients. Assigning participants to two intervention groups is done by a therapist unaware of the contents of the envelopes. The usual occupational therapy interventions for both groups are performed by an occupational therapist unaware of the group allocation. Motivational Interview sessions for intervention group A will be held by the study researcher, who will be informed about the grouping of patients using envelopes after randomizing the patients. Data analysis is also done by an analyst unfamiliar with the grouping of patients.
