Mobile-enhanced Transdiagnostic Group Treatment for Adolescents at Risk for Severe Mood Disorders
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for Adolescents and Mood Disorders. Completed, enrolled 91 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Although cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) has shown efficacy in reducing symptoms and rates of mood relapse in adolescents at high risk for severe mood disorders (SMD; i.e., bipolar I/II disorder and recurrent or unremitting major depression), a significant limitation to the CBT's efficacy is the low rate of participant adherence to the prescribed between-session homework tasks. Mobile health applications have the potential to improve adherence to and acceptance of treatment through embedded treatment content, skill-practice, thought and symptom monitoring, all of which are facilitated by reward contingencies and notifications. This study examines whether a mobile application-enhanced CBT can improve participant adherence and treatment acceptance for adolescents at high risk for SMD.
