Total sample (n = 50) Ambulatory care (n = 6) Residential facility (n = 38) Juvenile detention (n = 6) Demographics Age (M, SD) 21.4 (5.1) 21.2 (5.3) 21.5 (5.4) 21.0 (2.8) Total IQ (M, SD) 72.6 (9.4) 75.0 (6.7) 73.1 (9.8) 66.2 (7.7) Number diary items (M, SD) 13.2 (3.0) 13.3 (2.1) 13.3 (3.3) 12.2 (1.0) Gender (n male, %) 28 (56%) 3 (50%) 19 (50%) 6 (100%) Own phone (n own phone, %)† 41 (82%) 6 (100%) 35 (92%) 0 (0%) Frequency reminders‡ 1.1 (1.6) 0.2 (0.4) 0.8 (1.3) 3.5 (1.9) Frequency therapy integration‡ 1.7 (1.5) 2.5 (0.8) 1.5 (1.6) 2.0 (1.4) Outcome measures Diary compliance rate (%) 70.4% 88.9% 75.6% 19.4% Drop-out (n dropped out, %) 13 (26%) 0 (0%) 7 (18%) 6 (100%) Note. † Number of participants who completed diaries on their own phone as opposed to on a tablet or phone their living group. ‡ The frequency by which participants were reminded to complete diaries and the frequency of integrating diaries in therapeutic settings with caregiver or clinician reflects a 6-point scale with categories (0) ‘never’, (1) ‘< once per month’, (2) ‘once per month’, (3) ‘every two weeks’, (4) ‘once per week’, (5) ‘> once per week’. The average compliance rate of the whole sample (N =50) was 70.4%. Those that were retained throughout the 60-day diary period (n = 37) had an average compliance rate of 86.4%. There were 14 participants (28%) who completed all 60 diaries. Figure 3 visualizes the distribution of compliance rates across the whole sample. It shows that 20 participants (40%) completed over 90% of their diaries during the 60-day period. The distribution of participants that completed less than 90% of their diaries is relatively uniform, which means that the number of participants that had a compliance rate between 0% and 30%, between 31% and 60% or between 61% and 90% was roughly the same. There were no missing data points within the diaries that were completed. That is, participants who completed a daily diary answered all of its items. The median time lag between receiving the initial prompt and completing the survey was 47 minutes (range = 22 seconds to 10 hours). The latter is explained by three participants who wished to complete their diary before sleeping, which (e.g., due to work) was sometimes well past midnight.
