Caregiver and Youth Characteristics That Influence Trust in Digital Health Platforms in Pediatric Care: Mixed Methods Study
Our research confirms the willingness of caregivers and youth to use digital platforms for both clinical care delivery and research and suggests that the value of a digital platform may outweigh the risks of its use. Engagement of end users in co-designing such platforms has the potential to enhance digital trust. However, digital trust varies across sociodemographic groups; therefore, diverse end user engagement is necessary when designing digital applications.
