The protocol was registered in the Open Science Framework (OSF), following the steps indicated by the PRISMA-Extension checklist for Scope Revisions (PRISMA-ScR). Results: The composition of the primary results obtained in an initial search for the appropriation of knowledge on the subject of this article, survey of descriptors and partial discussions around these findings allowed the identification of 27 studies, 25 in PubMed and 2 in Scopus. After excluding articles identified as duplicates and applying the eligibility criteria, 5 studies were selected. Discussion: With this, when finding a foundation in the initial findings, the research that will be based on this protocol proves to be relevant to support the identification of health strategies to expand intervention plans and public policies. Final considerations: Thus, with regard to the expected results as well as potential conclusions, the study to be carried out based on this scope review protocol will seek to organize the published studies, in order to favor analyzes and operationalizations on the use of relational technologies in the mental health promotion of school adolescents.
