The present study sought to capture youth work professionals' views as part of a research programme focused on developing HYAR education resources for young people. Eleven …
How do health professionals and the public perceive the use of digital communication tools in obesity and mental health care
Digital technologies are increasingly used in health communication, yet their role in emotionally complex contexts, such as, obesity and mental health remains unclear. This study compared the use and perceptions of digital communication tools between health professionals (HPs) and the general public. A cross-sectional online survey collected data from 129 HPs and 268 public participants. Descriptive statistics, Chi-square, and Mann–Whitney U test…
Children and Young People's Priorities for Mental Health Research in Northern Ireland
INTRODUCTION: There are a number of factors contributing to the poor mental health of children and young people (CYP) specific to life in Northern Ireland (NI). Prevention and early intervention are of critical importance to the mental health and well-being of CYP. Policy decisions and service provision in the health and education sectors must be informed by research so that we can understand the factors affecting the mental health of young peopl…
Digital technology's role in supporting health professionals' communication with persons living with obesity and mental health issues
Background: Obesity and mental health issues are major public health concerns with a complex relationship. They share interconnections that significantly impair individuals’ physical, social, and mental well-being. Digital technology has emerged as a promising tool to facilitate communication between health professionals (HPs) and individuals living with obesity and mental health issues, but its role remains unclear. Aim: To critique the literatu…
Integrating digital interventions with employee wellbeing programmes
Background: Engaging in meaningful work has potential to improve our mental health and foster well-being, however, more than 15% of individuals currently in work are experiencing symptoms indicative of a common mental health condition, primarily mild to moderate anxiety and depression. There is evidence these conditions can be either prevented or effectively treated in the workplace. However, left untreated these conditions are associated with in…
Evaluating the ‘lessons learned’ in transitioning a digital health technology for dementia from lab to care home
The introduction of technologies and devices to support wellbeing in dementia are often evaluated using sensing technologies in a rather tech-heavy approach. With any research study involving such devices, there are unforeseen circumstances that emerge when operating this technology within a new site. This study considers the specific case of a lighting technology to support the synchronisation of the circadian rhythm for people living with demen…
The Quality of Physical and Mental Health Apps Across Four Age Groups
Background: There are currently more than 350,000 health apps in the Android and Apple app stores. The quality of a health app can be assessed by the Organization for the Review of Care and Health Apps (ORCHA), a United Kingdom based company that specialises in the quality assessment of health apps. The ORCHA baseline assessment (OBR) assess three aspects of a health app: 1) professional/clinical assurance (PCA), 2) user experience (UX) and 3) da…

Ethical Issues in Democratizing Digital Phenotypes and Machine Learning in the Next Generation of Digital Health Technologies
Digital phenotyping is the term given to the capturing and use of user log data from health and wellbeing technologies used in apps and cloud-based services. This paper explores ethical issues in making use of digital phenotype data in the arena of digital health interventions. Products and services based on digital wellbeing technologies typically include mobile device apps as well as browser-based apps to a lesser extent, and can include teleph…
Digital reminiscence app co‐created by people living with dementia and carers
BACKGROUND: This research reports on a pilot study that examined the usability of a reminiscence app called 'InspireD' using eye tracking technology. The InspireD app is a bespoke digital intervention aimed at supporting personalized reminiscence for people living with dementia and their carers. The app was developed and refined in two co-creation workshops and subsequently tested in a third workshop using eye tracking technology. INTERVENTION: E…
