9 <sup>th</sup> International Workshop on Mental Health and Well-being: New Research Directions
Mental health and well-being influence overall health: suffering from a mental illness can create severe impairment and reduce quality of life. Ubiquitous computing technologies are beginning to play a central role in collecting clinically relevant behavioral and physiological information on mental health that can be used to detect symptoms early-on, deliver preventative interventions, and manage symptoms throughout the course of illness. Despite this potential, designing and translating ubiquitous technologies into mental healthcare is a complex process, and existing technologies have faced numerous challenges towards effective implementation. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers, practitioners, and industry professionals to identify, articulate, and address the challenges of designing and implementing ubiquitous computing technologies in mental healthcare. Given these challenges, we are adding a specific call for papers that inspire new research directions, with initial findings that are valuable to the community, but are not fully publishable or finished contributions. Following the success of this workshop for the last eight years, we aim to continue facilitating the UbiComp community in both the conceptualization, translation, and implementation of novel mental health sensing and intervention technologies.
