心理健康数字干预的设计往往忽视了对自我价值的基本信念以及与他人建立密切关系的相关能力。依恋理论解释了这些人际关系方面，长期以来，这些方面与积极的心理健康结果有关，例如面对逆境时的弹性。我们报告与支持青年经验丰富的导师进行的生成性访谈，作为社区领导人关注枪支暴力和系统性种族主义对当地青年的创伤影响而发起的设计工作的一部分。这些社区领袖希望通过数字技术扩展他们现有的指导工作。我们认为依恋理论最适合帮助我们了解导师如何解决青少年的创伤，从而为我们如何设计支持这些关系和社区提供信息。我们引入附件知情设计作为一套设计原则，代表了一种新的方法来数字心理健康干预。
The design of digital interventions for mental health often overlooks the foundational belief in one’s own self-worth and related ability to develop close relationships with others. Attachment theory explains these interpersonal aspects, which have long been associated with positive mental health outcomes such as resilience when faced with adversity. We report on generative interviews with mentors experienced in supporting youth, as part of design work initiated by community leaders concerned about the traumatic effects of gun violence and systemic racism on local youth. These community leaders wanted to extend their existing mentoring efforts through digital technology. We identified attachment theory as the best fit for helping us understand how mentors are addressing trauma among youth, in ways that can inform how we design in support of these relationships and communities. We introduce attachment-informed design as a set of design principles that represent a novel approach to digital mental health interventions.
