Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Depressive Symptoms (Beck Depression Inventory - BDI) | Baseline, Day 10, 2 months | The Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II; range 0-63) will be used to measure changes in depressive symptoms among adolescents and young adults over time. Higher scores indicate greater depressive symptom severity. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Adherence to EMA Prompts | Baseline to 2 months | Mean percentage of EMA prompts completed by participants using the MyPHD mobile app during the 2-month study period. Completion will be assessed via EMA system analytics. |
| Wearable Device Return and Use Rate | Baseline to 2 months | Percentage of participants who return and use the wearable device as instructed during the study period. Device use will be tracked through backend device usage logs. |
| Change in Anxiety Symptoms (Beck Anxiety Inventory - BAI) | Baseline, Day 10, 2 months | Measures changes in self-reported anxiety symptoms across the study period. |
| Participant Retention Rate (MyPHD App and Wearable Device) | Baseline to 2 months | Percentage of participants who remain active in the study through the 2-month follow-up period using the MyPHD app and wearable device. |
| Change in PTSD Symptoms (PCL-5) | Baseline | PTSD symptoms are measured using the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) for general population participants. |
| Change in Sleep Quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index - PSQI) | Baseline, Day 10 | Assesses subjective sleep quality and patterns. |
