Description of intervention(s) / exposure
In this study, a research partnership with the Stroke Foundation was formed to develop and evaluate the online “Mood Assessment Post-Stroke (MAPS)” training program via the Stroke Foundation’s “Inform me” website (a free professional development site for stroke clinicians.The one and a half hour (self-paced) training works through offering participants didactic online lectures explaining the rationale behind screening, instructions on how to screen and respond to various screening results, and how to provide short term care strategies to patients. Within these modules participants will also be shown role play videos modelling how to conduct screening, and will have the opportunity to consolidate their learnings by answering case scenario questions around the process of screening. Participants can then use this training to implement their own routine screening practices within their workplace if they choose.
Objectives of this study include:
To evaluate the online “Mood Assessment Post-Stroke (MAPS)” training program through:
a) Assessing mood screening knowledge and skills via a pre and post training quiz and a consolidation exercise.
b) Validating the Mood Screening Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (MSEQ)
c) Assessing changes in with a screening self-efficacy questionnaire pre and post training.
d) Evaluating the acceptability and feasibility of the training through qualitative feedback.
e) Obtaining self-report feedback on whether routine mood screening has been implemented by participants post-training.
Adherence will be monitored through the engagement multiple choice questions asked throughout the training.

Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Allocation will be concealed. Central randomisation by computer will be used. We will be using redcap software for allocation concealment.

Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Simple randomisation using a randomisation table created by computer software (i.e. computerised sequence generation). We are using REDCAP software for the randomisation.

Statistical methods / analysis
Data Analysis:
Validation of the MSEQ:
The association of total scores on the MSEQ completed at time 1 will be considered with respect to whether participants were ‘psychologists or not’, ‘had mental health training or not’, and ‘whether they were experienced in mood screening or not’, using Pearson’s point-biserial correlation coefficient (this is to assess the predictive validity of the measure). The MSEQ will also be correlated with the GSE with a Pearson’s test (this is to assess the convergent validity of the measure).
Reliability of the MSEQ:
The MSEQ’s internal validity will be statistically analysed via Cronbach's alpha. Test-re-test stability / reliability will be investigated using Kendall’s tau-b correlation coefficient.
Efficacy of the training:
Major analysis: Mixed Model Repeated Measure ANOVAs will be used to assess differences in participant’s self-efficacy Pre to Post training across the two groups.
Subsidiary analysis: T-tests will be used to compare mean scores on screening knowledge pre to post intervention. Achievement on consolidation exercises will be recorded.
Acceptability/feasibility of the training:
A reflexive thematic analysis outlined by Braun and Clarke, 2009 will be utilised to analyse qualitative survey feedback.
