许多综述和荟萃分析表明，技术在提高心理健康干预措施的吸引力、有效性、成本和覆盖面方面具有巨大潜力。然而，数字化心理健康干预对青年的承诺尚未实现。重大的挑战已经被反复确定，包括参与，忠诚度和缺乏个性化。我们介绍了设计思维的主要原则，并解释了它们如何通过全新的思维方式和实践工具箱来具体应对这些挑战。此外，我们还提供了新一波数字干预的例子，以证明设计思维对广泛的干预目标的适用性。未来，科学家和临床医生必须实施他们的科学标准、方法和审查渠道，以评估设计思维对下一轮青少年数字心理健康干预的贡献。
Numerous reviews and meta-analyses have indicated the enormous potential of technology to improve the appeal, effectiveness, cost, and reach of mental health interventions. However, the promise of digital mental health interventions for youth has not yet been realized. Significant challenges have been repeatedly identified, including engagement, fidelity, and the lack of personalization. We introduce the main tenets of design thinking and explain how they can specifically address these challenges, with an entirely new toolbox of mindsets and practices. In addition, we provide examples of a new wave of digital interventions to demonstrate the applicability of design thinking to a wide range of intervention goals. In the future, it will be critical for scientists and clinicians to implement their scientific standards, methods, and review outlets to evaluate the contribution of design thinking to the next iteration of digital mental health interventions for youth.
