Topic

"Exploring the relationship between user characteristics and the usability and acceptability of an eHealth system designed to reduce depressive symptoms."

The NEVERMIND eHealth system is comprised of a mobile app and a sensorized shirt designed to monitor the mental health of patients with somatic illnesses. Besides looking at the clinical effectiveness of the system, we also want to explore how user characteristics (e.g., age, sex, education level, and baseline mental health) are associated with the usability and acceptability of the system.

The presentation will focus on the study linked below but also on additional preliminary analysis. 

Sociodemographic Characteristics Associated With an eHealth System Designed to Reduce Depressive Symptoms Among Patients With Breast or Prostate Cancer: Prospective Study.

What are the Health Informatics Conversations?

HI Conversations - a seminar series about Health Informatics

The conversations are about research-oriented health informatics topics, i.e. – presenting a published article, your research area, a relevant theory or a method etc.  

The Health Informatics Conversations will be recurring the last Thursday (except for June and December) every month at 12.00 via Zoom and last for one hour. This hour includes 20 minutes of presentation and leaves the rest of the time for discussions, all in English.

If you are a PhD-student – this is a credit-bearing activity, as long as the topic is relevant for your research.
