Digital health literacy among people with bipolar disorder in Germany – a cross-sectional survey
DHL in BD is not uniformly lower compared to the general population, underlining the feasibility of digital interventions as a promising pillar of care. At the same time, substantial heterogeneity highlights the need for routine DHL screening and tailored support for subgroups with lower skills. Future interventions and studies should systematically stratify by DHL level and target higher-order skills such as evaluating reliability and decision-making, in order to ensure equitable access and maximize the benefits of digital mental health care.
