Study Design: Three-arm Wait-list Randomized Clinical Trial
📌 Overview:
A three-arm wait-list randomized clinical trial (RCT) is a study design used to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention while ensuring all participants eventually receive the treatment.
📌 Study Groups:
1️⃣ Intervention Group: Receives the treatment immediately.
2️⃣ Active Control Group: May receive an alternative intervention.
3️⃣ Wait-list Control Group: Receives the treatment after a delay.
📌 Key Features:
✔ Randomization: Participants are randomly assigned to one of the three groups.
✔ Wait-list Design: Ensures ethical treatment distribution, reducing the impact of withholding care.
✔ Comparative Analysis: Allows evaluation of both immediate and delayed effects of the intervention.
📌 Benefits of This Design:
- Minimizes ethical concerns of withholding treatment.
- Helps assess long-term effects of the intervention.
- Improves participant retention, as all eventually receive the treatment.
