Assessing the Critical Parameters of eSMART-MH: A Promising Avatar-Based Digital Therapeutic Intervention to Reduce Depressive Symptoms.

Purpose: To assess, from the young adults' (YAs') perspectives, the critical parameters (necessity, acceptability, feasibility, fidelity, and safety) of an avatar‐based intervention, eSMART‐MH, to reduce depressive symptoms. Design and Methods: YAs (n = 60) were randomly assigned to eSMART‐MH or con...

      ab: Purpose: To assess, from the young adults' (YAs') perspectives, the critical parameters (necessity, acceptability, feasibility, fidelity, and safety) of an avatar‐based intervention, eSMART‐MH, to reduce depressive symptoms. Design and Methods: YAs (n = 60) were randomly assigned to eSMART‐MH or control and observed for 12 weeks. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected. Findings: Necessity, acceptability, fidelity, and safety of eSMART‐MH were supported. Feasibility results were mixed. When benchmarked against usual care, eSMART‐MH demonstrated greater feasibility. Practice Implications: eSMART‐MH is a promising digital therapeutic for depressive symptoms. Feasibility can be strengthened through “on the go” access via mobile devices and Internet delivery.
