Area of Science:

  • Digital health interventions
  • Behavioral science
  • Public health

Background:

  • Substance use disorders and HIV risk behaviors are leading preventable causes of death.
  • Continuing care is crucial for sustained recovery but rarely accessed.
  • Smartphone applications offer a scalable solution for delivering ongoing support.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To test the effectiveness of Ecological Momentary Assessments (EMAs) for self-monitoring.
  • To evaluate Ecological Momentary Interventions (EMIs) for immediate recovery support.
  • To assess the combined impact of EMAs and EMIs on substance use and HIV risk.

Main Methods:

  • 400 adults in substance use disorder treatment were randomized into four groups: EMAs only, EMIs only, EMAs+EMIs, or control.
  • Participants received smartphones with tailored app components for 6 months.
  • Primary outcome: days of abstinence; Secondary outcomes: HIV risk behaviors, mediation analysis.

Main Results:
