“…mHealth interventions have emerged due to the ubiquity use of mobile devices, mostly smartphones, making it possible to deliver meaningful health information in people's everyday activities (Danaher, Brendryen, Seeley, Tyler, & Woolley, ; European Commission, ). This concept of mobility is central for a participatory health care (Cameron, Ramaprasad, & Syn, ), presenting diverse health intervention opportunities that range from disease management to smoking cessation, or weight loss (Afshin et al, ; Bert, Giacometti, Gualano, & Siliquini, ; Sousa, Fonseca, Gaspar, & Gaspar, ).…”

Aim To evaluate the effectiveness on lifestyle change of an mHealth intervention to promote healthy behaviours in adolescence (TeenPower) and to analyse the predictors of the mHealth intervention effectiveness. Design This study is designed as a non‐randomized controlled trial with a two‐arm structure. Methods Adolescents of 12–16‐year old were recruited from three school districts, with access to the Internet and smartphone/tablet devices. The intervention group was invited to engage in the mHealth intervention (TeenPower) for 6 months in addition to a school‐based intervention. The control group only followed the school‐based intervention. A repeated measures factorial ANOVA was used and the main effectiveness outcome was the lifestyle change measured by the adolescent lifestyle profile. Results The outcomes of the mHealth intervention (TeenPower) show a significant effect on nutrition (ƞ2p = 0.03, p = .03), positive life perspective (ƞ2p = 0.04, p = .01), and global lifestyle (ƞ2p = 0.02, p = .05), with a dropout rate of 62.1%. The analysis of the effectiveness predictors of the mHealth intervention suggested that older adolescents tended to show a significant increase in the rates of stress management (r = .40; p < .05). Conclusions Although the considerable dropout rate, the mHealth intervention presented significant impact on multiple lifestyle domains, providing support for the effectiveness of mHealth interventions for health promotion as an add‐on to standard interdisciplinary interventions. Impact Adolescents must have the necessary and appropriate knowledge for the correct and responsible decision‐making regarding their health and lifestyle. Innovative strategies (mHealth intervention) were used to promote healthy behaviours. This study evaluates the effectiveness of an mHealth intervention (TeenPower) specifically designed for adolescents. We found a significant impact in several lifestyle domains such as health responsibility, nutrition, positive life perspective, and global lifestyle.

“…The ontology of research impact is presented in Table , and the following discusses the rationale for, and the logic underlying, construction of the ontology. A detailed description of ontological meta‐analysis and synthesis is provided by Ramaprasad and Syn (), and the application of the method to analyse the literature in a domain by Cameron, Ramaprasad, and Syn (). It has been used to study a corpus of research on eCommerce (La Paz, Ramaprasad, Syn, & Vasquez, ), national health care policies (Ramaprasad, Win, Syn, Beydoun, & Dawson, ), and other domains.…”

The Information Systems Journal (ISJ) published its first issue in 1991, and in 2015, the journal celebrated its 25th anniversary. This study presents an overview of the leading research trends in the papers that the journal has published during its first quarter of a century via a bibliometric and ontological analysis. From a bibliometric perspective, the analysis considers the publication and citation structure of the journal. The study then develops a graphical analysis of the bibliographic material by using visualization of similarities software that employs bibliographic coupling and cocitation analysis. The work produces an ontological framework of impact and analyses the journal papers to assess qualitatively ISJ's impact. The results indicate that the journal has grown significantly over time and is now recognized as one of the leading journals in information systems. Yet challenges remain if the journal is to meet its aims in impacting and setting the agenda for the development of the Information Systems field.
