Intervention Optimization is...

The process of achieving a strategic balance of intervention effectiveness, affordability, scalability, and efficiency.

Getting Started

The Multiphase Optimization Strategy [MOST]

MOST is a principled approach to developing interventions that achieve a strategic balance called EASE.

Adaptive Interventions

Adaptive interventions are intervention delivery frameworks that guide how dynamic information should be used in practice to modify an intervention.

Optimization Randomized Controlled Trials [ORCT]

ORTCs are designed to systematically assess the performance of intervention components.

Preparation Phase [MOST]

During the preparation phase, researchers lay the groundwork for optimization.

Micro-Randomized Trials

MRTs are a powerful tool for optimizing interventions that adapt treatment on a relatively fast timescale.

The Factorial ORCT

In a factorial ORCT, each candidate component is represented by an independent variable called a factor.

Register for MOST Training

For a limited time, we are offering MOST Training Workshops that are specifically geared towards those who identify as early career professionals. Our 2024 Workshops will be offered at a reduced rate. Priority will be given to early career professionals, but all are invited to apply.

"I went into this knowing very little about MOST and optimization trials. The content gave me more confidence using these methods in my work."
