Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1This trial is still listed as 'not yet recruiting' — do you know when it might actually open for enrollment, and how would I get notified when it does?
2The trial is measuring something called the Brief Negative Symptom Scale, which focuses on things like motivation and emotional expression — are those symptoms I'm currently experiencing, and would addressing them be a priority in my care plan right now?
3Since this is listed as Phase NA and appears to be an online intervention rather than a drug trial, what do you think the potential risks and benefits look like compared to the treatment options I already have available?
4This trial covers a range from early psychosis risk — the prodromal stage — all the way to a schizophrenia diagnosis, so can you help me understand where I fall in that spectrum and whether this kind of intervention would even be appropriate for my current situation?
5Given that this is an online-based study, what would my actual time commitment look like week to week, and is there any concern that participating could interfere with my regular treatment or therapy?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
