The Motor Activity - Subjective Energy (MASE) Project
This study is recruiting. It focuses on depression and currently lists participation information in Switzerland.
Key information made simple
This study is looking at whether a digital support tool can help people with major depression. Participants take part in a digital support tool and complete follow-up assessments. Taking part may give some people access to a digital support tool, but direct benefit is not guaranteed.
Your next step
The official record suggests a mix of remote and in-person participation through a university, with sites including University of Bern. Participation appears to involve guided sessions or support activities with check-ins on how they fit into daily life. The main fit is usually being able to understand the study and consent and meeting the main study requirements, while common reasons not to take part include pregnancy or breastfeeding and safety concerns that need urgent care first. 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.

Questions about this study
What is this study trying to understand?
This study is exploring digital app or tool for people with depression. 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.
What is a behavioral study?
This appears to be a behavioral / psychological / psychosocial study. Phase is mainly useful to check for medication studies and some device studies.
Who might this study be for?
This study may concern people with depression; age range: From 18 Years to 60 Years. The criteria appear fairly specific, 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?
You may take part in sessions or exercises related to habits, thoughts, emotions, or behaviors. The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask whether some steps can be done remotely.
Could this study affect my mood, habits, motivation, or stress?
Behavioral studies can involve habits, emotions, motivation, stress, sleep, or ways of thinking. Ask whether the intervention could affect your mood or stress, and who to contact if you feel worse. 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 currently recruiting. This does not mean you are eligible: the study team must confirm the criteria, available locations, and next steps.
