Adolescent Engagement With a Multicomponent mHealth Tool: Identifying Usage Patterns, Determinants, and Health Behavior Change in an Intervention Trial

Adolescent Engagement With a Multicomponent mHealth Tool: Identifying Usage Patterns, Determinants, and Health Behavior Change in an Intervention Trial

Following statistics from Western countries, between 93% and 98% of teens aged 12-17 years own a smartphone [6-8]. In Flanders, Belgium, 96% of adolescents use their smartphone more than an hour, and 45% even more than 4 hours on days without school [9]. The integration of smartphones in adolescents’ daily life may facilitate the adoption of a health app. Nevertheless, it remains a challenge to get adolescents to initiate and sustain engagement with digital health interventions.

Teen Perspectives on Integrating Digital Mental Health Programs for Teens Into Public Libraries (“I Was Always at the Library”): Qualitative Interview Study

Libraries are also seen as a safe space for teens with marginalized identities, including historically underserved racial and ethnic minority (HURE) teens; teens who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, or asexual (LGBTQIA+); teens living in lower-resourced and disinvested areas; and teens living with mental health conditions [15,16,18,22-27]. Unsurprisingly, the teen mental health crisis is visible in public libraries.
