Evaluation of Chatbot for Mental Well-being: A Randomized Controlled Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Mental Well-being Chatbot for Mental Well-being and Mental Health Literacy. Completed, enrolled 293 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The present study consists of two two-armed randomized controlled trials between experimental and waitlist control groups. It aims to evaluate the effectiveness of conversational chatbot in improving mental health literacy, uptake of self-care behaviors, and mental well-being, compared to the waitlist control, and the effectiveness of daily notification on adherence. This study will provide important findings for the future development and implementation of chatbots in mental health, which may increase public access to immediate mental health support. It is hypothesized that participants in the experimental condition will show (H1) better mental health literacy (H2) better improvement in self-care and self-efficacy in mental well-being, and (H3) better mental well-being, compared with participants in the control condition. Also, it is hypothesized that participants with daily reminders will show (H4) a better adherence rate in using chatbot compared with participants without daily reminders
