Tailored, wEb-based, Psychosocial and Physical Activity Self-Management PrOgramme

TEMPO is designed as a 7- to 10-week, web-based intervention containing 5 modules to pace patient-caregiver dyads' learning, avoid information overload, and allow sufficient practice time in-between modules . Each module is organized along six key components: needs assessment, tailored information and skills training, goal setting and action planning, motivational and social support, monitoring, automated feedback, and addressing time demands. Overall, modules aim to a) increase dyads' confidence in using strategies to address key psychosocial issues in the acute survivorship phase (e.g., dealing with stress and worry, communicating with partner and family, uncertainty management) and b) assist dyads in developing the self-regulatory skills necessary to meet the physical activity guidelines. Each module specifies a series of online (i.e. didactic material and interactive worksheets) and offline activities (i.e. practicing the proposed skills).

Patients will receive usual care throughout the study. Dyads in this group will not receive any information resources from the research team, but will have access to all of those available at their participating center (sites will be asked to provide a description of usual care practices). Participants will be given access to the TEMPO website after having completed their final questionnaire, as thanks for participating.
