Abstract
Context: Common Mental Disorders (CMDs) such as anxiety and depression have a high prevalence in Singapore, especially among young adults. Evidence-based Interventions (EBIs), have been shown to be effective in the prevention of CMDs. However, limited access to smartphone-Based interventions at the population level makes digital health interventions a scalable alternative for delivering mental health interventions. This study aims to explore the perceptions of university students, and mental health supporters about smartphone-based interventions for the prevention of CMDs. This study is part of the design and development process of a smartphone-based conversational agent intervention focusing on the prevention of CMDs in Singapore.
