What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating a group intervention called Lev-g, designed to promote healthy habits in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders or those closely related to children with disabilities. This brief, transdiagnostic, interprofessional program addresses health-related habits that influence mental and physical health, aiming to provide a usable model across various healthcare settings in Sweden. The study focuses on understanding the feasibility, acceptability, and potential effects of this intervention in improving health behaviors. Lev-g consists of three group sessions plus a booster session, employing psychoeducation, motivational interviewing, and applied behavioral analyses. The group format aims to provide peer support and sharing of tips among participants. There is no control group, as this trial tests the feasibility of the intervention. The program is delivered in healthcare settings and is intended for adults aged 15 to 80. Participants will be assessed for completion rates, satisfaction, treatment credibility, adverse events, and goal achievement throughout and after the intervention. Evaluations include questionnaires for both participants and healthcare workers at multiple time points up to 3 to 4 months. Researchers will measure well-being, self-efficacy, and changes in health-related habits, tracking progress from baseline through the booster session. The study is expected to conclude by early 2027.
