Utilization of online systems to promote youth participation in research: A methodological study

Abstract

The documentation of psychological trauma is obviously a challenge to clinicians while they are diving deep into remote events related to their clients or patients. The potential role of psychological trauma in the early developmental stages, and even the existence of adverse childhood experiences, is important to prove, yet it is difficult to do so. A diverse range of methods have been applied, all of which presumably benchmark a big therapeutic step; however, these enthusiastic methods frequently do not last for long. While hypnosis supporters, Freudian and Neo-Freudian disciples can be acute enough to enhance and uncover suppressed memories, modern psychiatry relies mostly on diversely structured interviews. Functional magnetic resonance and its related subtleties might help, but the questions that remain unanswered are numerous and confusing. Connecting early experiences with long-term memory while identifying psychological trauma its importance for the individual’s growth trajectory; thus, it remains an intriguing issue.

Eating disorder symptoms and comorbid mental health risk among teens recruited to a digital intervention research study via two online approaches

“…Previous studies on the feasibility of different recruitment approaches have reported recruitment rates, that is, the ability to recruit a certain number of eligible individuals over a specified timeframe, as a way to evaluate the practicality and feasibility of different methods of outreach (Bowen et al, 2009;Brøgger-Mikkelsen et al, 2020;Orsmond & Cohn, 2015). To evaluate our recruitment approach, feasibility in the current study was defined as our team's ability to connect with 150 teens who met inclusion criteria for our digital intervention study using our two online recruitment methods over 6 months, a timeframe comparable to other digital intervention studies among teens (Ali et al, 2022;Salem et al, 2023;Smith et al, 2023). Both recruitment approaches were used for approximately 6 months in total.…”
