Modification of Threat Interpretation Bias to Reduce Anxiety in Neurodegenerative Movement Disorders (Aim 3)

Description

The investigators will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial of the MindTrails-Movement CBM-I app in patients with Huntington’s disease and Parkinson’s disease (N=136). Participants randomly assigned to the intervention group (N=68) will be asked to download the MindTrails-Movement mobile app and to complete daily CBM-I training sessions and nightly surveys, in addition to surveys at baseline and every 2 weeks for the duration of the 6-week intervention and at 4-week follow-up (week 10).

Participants assigned to the waitlist control group will download a control version of the app without CBM-I training sessions. They will be asked to complete surveys in the app at baseline and every 2 weeks for the duration of the 6-week intervention and at 4-week follow-up (week 10). After 10 weeks, they will be offered the opportunity to access the version of MindTrails-Movement with CBM-I training content.
