Digital Mental Health Interventions for Young People Aged 16-25 Years: Scoping Review

There is a need for more research on mental health promotion and prevention measures among those aged younger than 25 years as young people are at increased risk of mental health issues. This includes exploring different intervention approaches and modalities beyond cognitive behavioral therapy and ensuring inclusivity in study populations. Standardizing intervention durations and incorporating long-term follow-up data could provide valuable insights into the efficacy and effectiveness of digital interventions. Future studies should aim for greater inclusivity, ensuring representation from marginalized groups to address the diverse mental health needs of young people effectively. By adopting these approaches, digital mental health interventions can become more accessible, engaging, and impactful for young people worldwide.

Abstract

There is a need for more research on mental health promotion and prevention measures among those aged younger than 25 years as young people are at increased risk of mental health issues. This includes exploring different intervention approaches and modalities beyond cognitive behavioral therapy and ensuring inclusivity in study populations. Standardizing intervention durations and incorporating long-term follow-up data could provide valuable insights into the efficacy and effectiveness of digital interventions. Future studies should aim for greater inclusivity, ensuring representation from marginalized groups to address the diverse mental health needs of young people effectively. By adopting these approaches, digital mental health interventions can become more accessible, engaging, and impactful for young people worldwide.
