Preferences for an Experience Sampling Method-Based Tool as an Adjunct to Usual Treatment in Patients With Problem Substance Use: Qualitative Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Mobile health tools that use the Experience Sampling Method (ESM) appear to be a promising tool to streamline and improve the treatment of substance use disorders. However, patient involvement in the development of these tools is uncommon, and research on the preferences of people being treated for substance use disorders has been scarce. In the scope of the European Union IMMERSE (Implementing Mobile Mental health Recording Strategy for Europe) consortium, an ESM-based tool for Digital Mobile Mental Health (DMMH) was first codeveloped and later tested in 4 European countries.

Objective

This study aimed to achieve an understanding of preferences for features of DMMH among mental health service users with problem substance use.

Methods

In 4 European countrie
