Self-directed digital interventions for the improvement of emotion regulation - acceptability and feasibility for adolescents: systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In-person, therapist-supported interventions targeting emotion regulation have been shown to improve the mental health of adolescents. Increasingly, self-directed digital interventions (e.g. mobile apps) are being developed as a cost-effective, scalable solution to widen access to support. However, evidence of the acceptability and feasibility of these interventions has yet to be synthesised.

Aims

To identify existing evidence on the benefits, acceptability and feasibility of self-directed digital interventions that target emotion regulation in adolescents (aged 11-18 years).

Method

A Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA)-guided systematic review was conducted to identify studies published from 1 January 2010 to 13 Nove
