Overview
Brief Summary
Clinical experience has shown that adolescents have great difficulties in getting to mental health care centers. The investigators want to find a specific way to follow up with the adolescent public. This study sets up a digital mental health application offering a tele-consultation space, a chat space with mental health professionals, a forum space, a news and therapeutic education space. The objective of the study is to evaluate the acceptance of the digital tool by the adolescent between 11 and 18 years old. To do this, the investigators determine the number of connections to the tool during the 6 months of support.
Detailed Description
The purpose of the CPP application is the creation of an innovative psychiatric device combining a digital application of mental health for adolescents with a mobile team, anchored within the I03 pole of the Public Health Establishment of Ville-Evrard. This Together digital application includes a space for news, chat, peer-to-peer forum and video consultation. We propose an action-research protocol because this project was born of questions related to the terrain raising the problem of the difficulty of access to the care of adolescents in the territory of Pole 93I03. Action research is aimed at adolescents aged 11 to 18, whose medical, paramedical and school partners have observed mental suffering (ill-being, inappropriate behaviour, dropping out of school) but who are not or no longer enrolled in mental care. It aims to use a digital application backed by a mobile team to improve access to the mental health care system for adolescents. The research issue would be formalized in these terms: would the Together mental health application, combined with a mobile team, allow access to a path of care for the adolescent? HYPOTHESIS We hypothesize that adolescents will accept the digital tool, using it regularly and that this will ultimately facilitate access to mental care. OBJECTIVES The main objective of this study is to assess the acceptance of the digital tool by the young person. Acceptance here depends on the regular use of the Together app by the teenager. The secondary objectives are to assess the percentage of adolescents starting face-to-face management within sector structures; the percentage of adolescents observing a better-be, to observe the quality of the support via the dual device digital application/mobile team. METHOD The action-research takes place over a year, with a panel of 50 teenagers. After a pre-inclusion interview by the partners to talk about the research-action device to the teenager, he is offered an inclusion interview informing him of the research, the consent and the use of the digital application. Different evaluations are then spent at different times of action research to evaluate the main objective and secondary objectives.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
The quality of the interaction between the user and the application assessed by AttrakDiff 2.
Time Frame: Month 3 and Month 6
The Investigators use AttrakDiff 2, a validated self-assessment scale (Hassenzahl, Burmester and Kollet, 2003). It is consists in 28 items. Each item has 2 contrasting words (semantic differentiators), separated by a 7-point scale. The scale is divided into 7 pairs of words evaluating respectively: pragmatic aspects, the overall attractiveness of the interactive system, hedonic aspects - divided into two subscales: identification and stimulation. The purpose of this measure is to assess the global quality of the interaction between the user and the application.
The number of connections to the application during the 6 months of support.
Time Frame: Day 0 to Month 6
The data tool will collect and count the number of connections on the application, the number of chat, video, phone call and like given to the news. The software CORTEXTE (digital patient record), will count the number of acts performed with the young person.
Secondary Outcomes
- Score of Patient satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ) to assess patient satisfaction.(Month 6)
- Behavioral disorders assessed by the score of Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire(SDQ).(Day 0, month 3, month 6, month 12)
- The level of impulsivity assessed by the score of Impulsivity scale " UPPS Impulsive Behavior Scale ".(Day 0, month 3, month 6, month 12)
- SDQ follow-up questionnaire(Month 3 and Month 6)
- Score of Self-esteem measurement scale (EMESA) to assess the adolescent's self-esteem.(Day 0, month 3, month 6, month 12)
