Automated conversational agents (CAs) emerged as a promising solution in mental health interventions among young people. Therefore, the objective of this scoping review is to examine the current state of research into fully automated CAs mediated interventions for the emotional component of mental health among young people. Selected databases were searched in March 2023. Included studies were primary research, reporting on development, feasibility/usability, or evaluation of fully automated CAs as a tool to improve the emotional component of mental health among young population. Twenty-five studies were included (N = 1707). Most automated CAs applications were standalone preventions targeting anxiety and depression. Automated CAs were predominantly AI-based chatbots, using text as the main communication channel. Overall, the results of the current scoping review showed that automated CAs mediated interventions for emotional problems are acceptable, engaging and with high usability. However, the results for clinical efficacy are far less conclusive, since almost half of evaluation studies reported no significant effect on emotional mental health outcomes. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that there is a pressing need to improve the existing automated CAs applications to increase their efficacy as well as conducting more rigorous methodological research in this area.

“…Trinidad and others believe that medical education not only emphasizes the cultivation of professional knowledge and skills and scientific spirit, but also pays special attention to the cultivation of humanistic cultivation and sound personality [19]. Russell and others think that the medical humanistic spirit is the soul of medicine, which is the spiritual scene that people need to convey most when they are the weakest and most painful in life [20]. Bharti believes that the cultivation of narrative ability will have a positive transfer effect on the improvement of college students' oral expression ability, showing multiple ability changes of language expression microstructure, macrostructure, and content eventuality [21].…”

Effective narrative turn of doctor-patient communication can strengthen the trust between doctors and patients, close the doctor-patient relationship, and reduce the contradiction between doctors and patients. Health humanities, as a more inclusive, open, and application-oriented discipline, has been gradually recognized by academic circles. Narrative medicine, as an interdisciplinary subject of humanities education and medicine, plays an important role in cultivating medical students’ narrative ability. 30 medical staff in a general hospital were selected as the research object by questionnaire survey. General information questionnaire and medical narrative ability scale were used to investigate and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of medical students’ medical narrative ability. The results show that the standardized regression coefficients of communication content, empathy, and communication results are 0.439, 0.367, and 0.138, respectively. The total score of medical narrative ability of medical students is 133, and the average score of items is 4.87, which is at a low level. In conclusion, the medical narrative ability of medical students is at a low level, and nursing managers should take targeted intervention measures to improve the medical narrative ability of medical students.
