Feasibility as assessed by number of participants who complete the study
时间窗: 6 weeks
Feasibility as assessed by number recruited
时间窗: baseline
Number recruited is number of eligible youth minus number who refuse to participate.
Feasibility as assessed by number of staff hours required
时间窗: 6 weeks
Acceptability as assessed by score on the Mobile App Rating Scale (MARS)
时间窗: 6 weeks
The Mobile App Rating Scale (MARS) consists of 23 items on a 5-point (1-5) scale is designed to score apps on the criteria of engagement, functionality, aesthetics, and information quality (sub-scales). Total score is determined by calculating the mean of each sub-scale and an overall mean score. High mean scores indicate a higher quality app.
