Study Summary
The purpose of this research study is to refine customized in-app notifications in order to optimize users' experience with a mobile app called Wysa for Chronic Pain. This app is designed to support people who have chronic pain and who also experience symptoms of depression and/or anxiety. This version of the app is not currently available to the public. Eligible participants will be asked to download and use the Wysa for Chronic Pain study app for several weeks, and to use it as they normally would if they were not part of a research study. At the beginning and end of the study period, participants will be asked to complete brief surveys about their mood, pain, physical function, and sleep. Additionally, a few participants will be asked to share their experience with the study app at the end of the research study in a casual interview using a secure audio/video recorded call. Participating in the interview portion is optional.
Primary Outcome
The primary outcome for each JITAI is the between-group difference in engagement with Wysa for Chronic Pain during the JITAI's target engagement time interval. Engagement is operationalized as interaction(s) with the digital mental health intervention and is automatically captured throughout the study by the intervention's technical infrastructure. It is not self-reported.
