Using decision analysis for intervention value efficiency to select optimized interventions in the multiphase optimization strategy.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Optimizing multicomponent behavioral and biobehavioral interventions presents a complex decision problem. To arrive at an intervention that is both effective and readily implementable, it may be necessary to weigh effectiveness against implementability when deciding which components to select for inclusion. Different components may have differential effectiveness on an array of outcome variables. Moreover, different decision-makers will approach this problem with different objectives and preferences. Recent advances in decision-making methodology in the multiphase optimization strategy (MOST) have opened new possibilities for intervention scientists to optimize interventions based on a wide variety of decision-maker preferences, including those that involve multiple outco
