Hello,

I am a great fan of this forum, but now I need your help. I hope it is OK when I post this here.

As part of my dissertation, I research the acceptance of mobile mental health treatment applications.
Online treatment of a variety of mental disorders using computerised cognitive behavioural therapy is clinical effective[1,2,3].

A computerized treatment program typically consists of lectures and exercises, which are to be processed by the user.
There are supervised programs, where a psychologist supervises your progress and provides feedback, as well as self-help applications without supervision.

Mobile mental health treatment applications, which run on a smart-phone, could be considered the next generation of these programs.

An advantage of these smart-phone applications is that they not only provide useful interventions and screenings to track a user's improvement, they can also make use of the smart-phone's sensors to measure current location, activity and recent calls. With these measures, the client's current condition can be assessed and momentary interventions can be triggered to assist the client in difficult and stressful situations[4,5,6].

As mentioned in the beginning, I currently research the acceptance of these mobile applications.

Now, I would like you to participate in my survey, because I need your help in collecting data for my research.

Your help greatly appreciated.


Thank you.
