Factors associated with intention to use an educative mHealth application among high-risk target groups in health prevention

These findings underscore the need for engaging, user-friendly mHealth applications that motivate preventive health measures, reducing future care dependency. Users must be convinced of the personal health benefits (PE) of the application and experience a certain degree of enjoyment (HM) while using it. The integration of social features however, especially in cooperation with health insurance companies, is restricted by stringent data protection regulations.

Abstract

These findings underscore the need for engaging, user-friendly mHealth applications that motivate preventive health measures, reducing future care dependency. Users must be convinced of the personal health benefits (PE) of the application and experience a certain degree of enjoyment (HM) while using it. The integration of social features however, especially in cooperation with health insurance companies, is restricted by stringent data protection regulations.
