This groundbreaking book delves into the potential, limitations, and recommendations for the digital mental health landscape. The authors expertly synthesize existing literature on the validity of digital health technologies, encompassing smartphones apps, sensors, chatbots, and telepsychiatry, in the treatment of mental health disorders. They also emphasize the importance of collecting real-time biological information, which surpasses the mere collection of filled-in forms, in mitigating issues related to recall bias during clinical appointments. Furthermore, the book addresses key limitations such as confidentiality, engagement, and retention rates. Presented in fifteen chapters, this comprehensive work addresses vital questions such as whether smartphones and sensors can provide more accurate information about patients' symptoms between clinical appointments, thereby avoiding recall bias. It also explores the potential of digital phenotyping in clinical decision-making in mental health and examines the scientific evidence supporting the use of mobile interventions in mental health.

Digital Mental Health serves as a valuable resource for clinicians and researchers, particularly psychiatrists and psychologists, in developing measures and methodologies to evaluate the apps' usefulness, feasibility, and efficacy. By arming these professionals with the latest evidence and equipping them for the new era of mental health, the book aims to foster a consensus about reliability in the field.
