A Guided Internet-Based Problem-Solving Intervention Delivered Through Smartphones for Secondary School Pupils During the COVID-19 Pandemic in India: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

A Guided Internet-Based Problem-Solving Intervention Delivered Through Smartphones for Secondary School Pupils During the COVID-19 Pandemic in India: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

The current protocol describes a pilot feasibility trial of “POD Adventures”—a novel gamified intervention delivered via a smartphone app and supported remotely by counsellors for a target population of secondary school students in India. Although the intervention was developed prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the timing of the COVID-19 outbreak meant that the trial was launched in the midst of lockdowns and extended school closures.

Long-Term Outcomes of the Good School Toolkit Primary School Violence Prevention Intervention Among Adolescents: Protocol for a Nonrandomized Quasi-Experimental Study

Violence against children that occurs in school is a global public health problem that takes many forms. It may include physical, emotional, and sexual violence and involve different perpetrators and power dynamics [4]. In Uganda, similar to in other resource-constrained settings, the majority of primary school students have experienced physical violence from a teacher, and almost half have experienced physical, emotional, or sexual violence from a fellow student [5-7].

Assessing Bias in Population Size Estimates Among Hidden Populations When Using the Service Multiplier Method Combined With Respondent-Driven Sampling Surveys: Survey Study

Assessing Bias in Population Size Estimates Among Hidden Populations When Using the Service Multiplier Method Combined With Respondent-Driven Sampling Surveys: Survey Study

The method uses 2 data sources [5-12], one of which is a count or listing of clients who are accessing a service, for example, the number of FSWs who attended a certain program or who were arrested by the police over a given period. The second data source is a probability-based sample of the population [3,11,13] in which participants are asked about their attendance at that program or arrest over the same period.
