Modeling in Therapy

Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.

Group Therapy01:26

Group Therapy

Group therapy is a sociocultural approach to psychological treatment, where individuals with shared psychological challenges come together under the guidance of a mental health professional. This therapeutic modality offers unique opportunities for individuals to connect, share, and grow within the context of a supportive group. By fostering mutual understanding and collaboration, group therapy can address a range of psychological concerns effectively, often complementing or surpassing the...

Area of Science:

  • Digital health interventions
  • Mobile health (mHealth) applications
  • Mental health management

Background:

  • Growing interest in mental health and quality of life.
  • Mobile apps offer a viable intervention for mental health management.
  • Need for verified and efficient mental health and stress management apps.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Develop and verify the effectiveness of mobile apps for adult mental health.
  • Assess the impact of a mobile app on stress, anxiety, depression, emotional labor, and well-being.

Main Methods:

  • One-group pretest-posttest study design.
  • 85 participants used the app for 12 weeks.
  • Assessed stress (surveys and photoplethysmogram), anxiety, depression, emotional labor, and well-being.

Main Results:

  • Photoplethysmogram (PPG) stress measures decreased (p=0.002).
  • Depression (p=0.043) and anxiety (p=0.003) significantly decreased.
  • Increased awareness, knowledge, and positive attitudes toward mental health management.

Conclusions:

  • The developed mobile app is an efficient and accessible tool for promoting mental health.
  • App requires modification and supplementation for continued effectiveness.
  • Further research on the study, evaluation, and integration of mobile apps is necessary.
