Implementation science in behavioral health focuses too much on asking why efficacious interventions don’t work in reality. We could advance much more by asking what was wrong and biased in the research that found it to be efficacious. #mentalhealth #behavioralsciences

Important paper below. I believe there is almost no room for wait list control when studying a #digitalhealth intervention, as there is an interaction between treatment and trial setting that boosts treatment effect but does not impact those who get nothing. @JohnTorousMD.
Control conditions in #digitalhealth tools/apps RCTs dramatically influence results. Sometimes a waitlist condition makes sense but often not. Led by @SGoldbergPhD, we propose a ready-to-deploy typology to pick the right one. New [+free] in @npjDigitalMed.

This paper shows that #loneliness did not impact #engagement with an app targeting #suicidal ideation /#depression. But It does not seem that loneliness reduced. I would be happy if our apps would target the reasons for #mentalillness. #mheallth .

40% of U.S adults who make more money (+$75k) report to be constantly #online. So being online is correlated with our ability to become valuable, but also to poor #mentalhealth 😖. This actually makes sense. #Internet #wellbeing.
