Background: One in five adults in the US experience mental illness and over half of these adults do not receive treatment. In addition to the access gap, few innovations have been reported for ensuring the right level of mental healthcare service is available at the right time for individual patients.
Methods: Historical observational clinical data was leveraged from a virtual healthcare system.
Background: Various behavioral sensing research studies have found that depressive symptoms are associated with human-smartphone interaction behaviors, including lack of diversity in unique physical locations, entropy of time spent in each location, sleep disruption, session duration, and typing speed. These behavioral measures are often tested against the total score of depressive symptoms, and the recommended practice to disaggregate within- and between-person effects in longitudinal data is often neglected.
Objective: We aimed to understand depression as a multidimensional process and explore the association between specific dimensions and behavioral measures computed from passively sensed human-smartphone interactions.
