虽然文献报道患有严重精神疾病的人可以从日常技术中受益，但支持他们是否在日常生活中使用它的证据有限。这项研究调查了患有严重精神疾病的人使用技术的目的，他们想使用它的目的，以及为什么他们目前不使用特定功能。结果显示，97.1%的参与者拥有或使用无线设备，82.4%使用短信，64.7%使用电子邮件，70.6%使用语音邮件。进一步的研究以及使用技术的治疗干预的影响进行了讨论。
While literature reports people with serious mental illnesses can benefit from everyday technology, evidence supporting whether or not they are using it in their daily lives is limited. This study investigated what people with serious mental illness are using technology for, what they would like to use it for, and why they are currently not using particular features. Results indicated 97.1% of participants own or use a wireless device, 82.4% use text messaging, 64.7% use email, and 70.6% use voicemail. Implications for further research as well as implications for therapeutic interventions using technology are discussed.
