Key information made simple

This study exists to see whether a digital app or remote support tool can play a useful role in care. Researchers are trying to understand whether a digital app or remote support tool can improve attention, thinking, or day-to-day functioning. For people living with Mental health, access and fit can matter just as much as the treatment itself. If the findings are useful, they could lead to earlier recognition and more informed decisions later on. Taking part helps build the evidence that can improve understanding and care for others over time.

What to expect

Your next step

The official record suggests a mix of remote and in-person participation through a university, with sites including University of Bern, Division of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology in Bern. Participation appears to involve questionnaires, interviews, or regular check-ins about day-to-day experience. The main fit is usually being able to understand the study and consent and being able to follow the planned visits or tasks, while common reasons not to take part include safety concerns that need urgent care first and other factors that could make participation unsuitable. The official record does not list a formal phase, which usually means this is focused more on feasibility, delivery, or support than a standard drug-development stage.

FAQ

Questions about this study

What is this study trying to understand?

This study is exploring digital app or tool for people with mental health. Participants may complete study visits, assessments, or follow-up activities defined by the research team. Direct benefit is not guaranteed. The detailed objective is not always clearly listed in the public registry; the study team can confirm.

Why is the study type not clearly categorized?

The study type is not clearly categorized in the public registry. Focus on the objective, required tasks, visits, any intervention, and eligibility criteria, then ask the study team to confirm.

Who might this study be for?

This study may concern people with mental health; age range: From 12 Years to 18 Years. The criteria appear fairly broad, but you should not assume you are eligible. The study team must confirm diagnosis, age, exclusions, available locations, and next steps.

What would I likely need to do?

The public registry does not clearly describe all participation steps. The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask whether some steps can be done remotely.

What risks or points should I check?

The public registry does not make the main risk category clear. Ask the study team what activities are required, what could feel uncomfortable, how safety is monitored, and what happens if you want to stop. For any mental health study, also ask who to contact if you feel worse, whether participation may affect current treatment, whether you can stop, and who confirms eligibility.

Will I need to travel or attend in-person visits?

The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask which sites are open, how many visits are expected, whether any steps can be done remotely, and whether travel costs or compensation are listed.

Who is behind this study?

This study is sponsored by University of Bern, which appears to be a university. If available, it can be useful to check the sponsor website, collaborators, investigator affiliation, and the official registry before deciding. HopeStage does not judge the quality of a sponsor or researcher, but helps you identify what to verify.

Can I still join this study?

The registry indicates that this study is completed. It may still be useful for understanding the research, but you are unlikely to be able to join.
