Description

Adolescent depression has been increasing worldwide and often there are no available platforms to support them. Being one of the largest age groups of smartphone users, we investigate and implement an extension framework for mobile health (mHealth) applications to alleviate depressive symptomatology and elevate psychological well-being in adolescents. In this paper, we discuss the design and development of incorporating and integrating social support provided by professionals and peers and its effective role in a mobile context.
