Interventions

Ecological Momentary Treatment Enhancementother

Participants will be given a pre-programmed smartphone on which they will enter their responses to a series of questions about moods and daily experiences using an app developed for this study. The child will receive an electronic notification message once per day and will be prompted through a series of questions about what he/she is doing, who he/she is with, how he/she is feeling, worries or stressful events, and how he/she coped with these events. It should take the child approximately 5 minutes each time to complete the questions. Participant data will be sent to study therapists to be reviewed weekly. The therapist will integrate this information into treatment and provide customized feedback to the patient.
