Engagement With a Relaxation and Mindfulness Mobile App Among People With Cancer: Exploratory Analysis of Use Data and Self-Reports From a Randomized Controlled Trial

Engagement With a Relaxation and Mindfulness Mobile App Among People With Cancer: Exploratory Analysis of Use Data and Self-Reports From a Randomized Controlled Trial

While many m Health apps have significant issues with sustained engagement [10-17], this is particularly true for fully automated m Health apps without any human support, also termed unguided or self-guided m Health apps. A high level of human support in guided m Health apps is typically associated with better engagement rates but at the cost of reduced scalability [18,19].

Group, Blended and Individual, Unguided Online Delivery of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for People With Cancer: Feasibility Uncontrolled Trial

Group, Blended and Individual, Unguided Online Delivery of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for People With Cancer: Feasibility Uncontrolled Trial

Individual, unguided e MBCT consisted of 8 e MBCT sessions in which participants followed the intervention by themselves without teacher guidance; an unguided intervention could increase access and improve scalability at a lower cost for both participants and therapists. Both intervention conditions also included an introductory session and a silent day.

Real-World User Demographics of Three Web-Based Digital Mental Health Interventions Provided by the US Department of Veterans Affairs: Observational Study Using Web Analytics Data

These interventions can be guided, meaning that their use is facilitated by interacting with another person (usually a health care provider), or unguided, meaning that their use is not facilitated by another person. Unguided digital mental health interventions (UDMHIs) have been referred to by several names in the literature, including web-based interventions [2] and digital self-help interventions [3].

Designing and Developing an eHealth Program for Patients With Persistent Physical Symptoms: Usability Study

Designing and Developing an eHealth Program for Patients With Persistent Physical Symptoms: Usability Study

The program is prescribed by the GP but is unguided, that is, no health care professional (HCP) will assist the patient in the use of the program. The program is a responsive web application that is accessible from computers, tablets, and smartphones through a web browser. The overall framework of making the “My Symptoms” program lent itself to ideas from the participatory design research paradigm within health care [10,11].

Intervention Use and Symptom Change With Unguided Internet-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Depression During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Log Data Analysis of a Convenience Sample

Intervention Use and Symptom Change With Unguided Internet-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Depression During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Log Data Analysis of a Convenience Sample

Although evidence suggests that guided IMIs should be preferred to unguided ones [5], limited resources of the health care system or other circumstances often prevent professional guidance from being provided. Previously, smaller effect sizes in unguided interventions have been explained in part by lower adherence. Lower adherence, in turn, has been associated with reduced treatment effects [6].

Developing an Unguided Internet-Delivered Intervention for Emotional Distress in Primary Care Patients: Applying Common Factor and Person-Based Approaches

In contrast, unguided Internet interventions for mental health have been more problematic. Removing structured human guidance frequently results in low use, high attrition, and reduced effectiveness [5-7], leading some to call for unguided formats to be avoided [8].
