Summary

The current study seeks to pilot test the iENDURE (Enhancing Distress tolerance to Uplift motivation in Recovery) intervention among 10 participants with Long COVID (Coronavirus Disease) symptoms. Following informed consent procedures, participants will complete a brief baseline assessment of self-report measures. Participants will then engage in the iENDURE intervention (described below) for 4 weeks. At the end of the intervention period, participants will complete another brief assessment of self-report measures and a qualitative interview about their experience with the program. Participants will be compensated for completing the baseline and post-intervention assessments

Conditions

• Long COVID
• Distress Tolerance

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	iENDURE	Two delivery modes: computer and text message. The intervention provides introductory strategies for managing physical and emotional distress associated with Long COVID through a computer-delivered session followed by 4-weeks of theoretically-informed text messages intended to promote distress tolerance (DT). Computer - the initial intervention will be delivered online via the Qualtrics survey tool following informed consent. The intervention provides strategies to better tolerate emotional and physical discomfort to persist with behavioral goals. Text Message - The text message intervention will be delivered using Marigold Health (a HIPAA compliant platform for secure text messaging). Participants will receive daily text messages that focus on emphasizing adaptive strategies for tolerating physical and emotional discomfort in order to work toward behavioral goals. The text messages will be personalized and offer skills training (reminders of previously learned DT skills).
