How to e-mental health: a guideline for researchers and practitioners using digital technology in the context of mental health

A primer on sampling rates of ambulatory assessments.

“…Sometimes self-reports in AA designs are coupled with additional data from wearable sensors or biochemical measurements in multimodal data collections, either to investigate psychophysiological covariance structures or to increase the validity of error-prone self-reports (Kubiak & Stone, 2012;McHale et al, 2013;Roos & Slavich, 2023;Seizer & Löchner, 2024;Velozo et al, 2022). Questionnaire-based selfreports, although a valuable source of information, are primarily reliant on introspection and have inherent limitations, such as self-other knowledge asymmetry and floor or ceiling effects (Seiferth et al, 2023). It is increasingly apparent that individuals may lack the ability to self-report the intricate and complex patterns of behavior in various daily life situations.…”

Revealing the source: How awareness alters perceptions of AI and human-generated mental health responses

“…To combat the shortage of mental health professionals, technology, including mobile health apps and chatbots, is being employed ( Lucas et al, 2017 ; Inkster et al, 2018 ; Seiferth et al, 2023 ; Smith et al, 2023 ). A chatbot is a system that is able to converse and interact with human users using spoken, written, and visual languages ( Vaidyam et al, 2019 ; Kumar et al, 2016 ).…”

The influence of organizational models on the implementation of internet-based cognitive behavior therapy in primary care: A mixed methods study using the RE-AIM framework

“…Complex interventions, such as the implementation of iCBT, involve and depend on adopting multiple interacting components, such as the intervention in itself, as well as organizational structure and training of professionals ( Craig et al, 2008 ). Seiferth et al (2023) highlight the importance of evaluating the implementation of the digital intervention in real-world settings. The present study explores the process of implementing iCBT in Swedish primary care.…”
