简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a digital health intervention, called "ActivaTeen," improves depression treatment for teenagers with depression. The investigators also want to know if ActivaTeen is easy to use for both teenagers and mental health clinicians who help deliver treatment through ActivaTeen. All teenagers in the study will receive an individual depression therapy called Behavioral Activation or "BA" and about half will also use ActivaTeen.
The main questions this trial aims to answer are:
- Does ActivaTeen improve depression treatment for teenagers?
- Do teenagers and clinicians find ActivaTeen to be acceptable?
Researchers will compare teenagers using ActivaTeen along with BA to teenagers who are only doing BA to see the effects of ActivaTeen.
Participants in the study will:
- Fill out surveys online several times during the study, which lasts about 6 months
- Receive individual BA therapy

结局指标
主要结局
Intervention Usability Scale
时间窗: Week 12
The IUS was adapted from the System Usability Scale, with the word "system" replaced with "intervention platform" for each item. Items are rated on a Likert-type scale from 0 (strongly disagree) to 4 (strongly agree) and half of the items are reverse-scored. The total score is calculated by multiplying the sum of these scores by 2.5 (possible range: 0-100), with higher scores indicating greater usability.
User Burden Scale
时间窗: Week 12
The User Burden Scale (UBS) is a widely used and reliable scale that includes 20-items that capture user burden of computing systems across 6 subscales1) difficulty of use, 2) physical, 3) time and social, 4) mental and emotional, 5) privacy, and 6) financial. Items are rated on a 5-point Likert scale from 0 (Never/Not at all) to 4 (All of the time/Extremely). Higher scale scores indicate greater user burden.
Client Satisfaction Questionnaire - 8
时间窗: Week 12
The CSQ-8 is an 8-item, unidimensional measure assessing general satisfaction with mental health services. Higher scores indicate greater satisfaction (range: 8 - 32)
Acceptability Of Intervention Measure
时间窗: Week 12
The Acceptability of Intervention Measure assesses the acceptability of a particular intervention. The measure has 4 items each and responses are coded on a 1 - 5 Likert scale (Completely Disagree to Completely Agree). Higher scores indicate greater acceptability (range: 4 - 20)
Intervention Appropriateness Measure
时间窗: Week 12
The Intervention Appropriateness Measure assesses the appropriateness of a particular intervention. The measure has 4 items each and responses are coded on a 1 - 5 Likert scale (Completely Disagree to Completely Agree). Higher scores indicate greater appropriateness (range: 4 - 20)
Feasibility Of Intervention Measure
时间窗: Week 12
The Feasibility of Intervention Measure assesses the feasibility of a particular intervention. The measure has 4 items each and responses are coded on a 1 - 5 Likert scale (Completely Disagree to Completely Agree). Higher scores indicate greater feasibility (range: 4 - 20)
次要结局
- Loneliness(Baseline to Week 24)
- Therapeutic Alliance(Week 12)
