User Character Strengths and Engagement Prediction on a Digital Mental Health Platform for Young People: Longitudinal Observational Study.

ABSTRACT: Mental ill health is a leading cause of disability worldwide, but access to evidence-based support remains limited. Digital mental health interventions offer a timely and low-cost solution. However, improvements in clinical outcomes are reliant on user engagement, which can be low for digital interventions. User characteristics, including demographics and personality traits, could be used to personalize platforms to promote longer-term engagement and improved outcomes. This study aims to investigate how character strengths, a set of positive personality traits, influence engagement patterns with moderated online social therapy, a national digital mental health platform offering individualized, evidence-based digital mental health treatment for young people aged 12-25 years. Data from 6967
