Purpose: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to examine previous research on website and mobileapplication-based interventions for adolescents and young adults with depression and to evaluate their effectivenesson depressive symptoms.
Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library CENTRAL databases were searchedand 22 articles were identified from 16 randomized controlled trial studies.
Results: The most frequently usedintervention strategy was Internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT). Most studies (n = 14) used websites.
Two studies used mobile applications. Meta-analysis revealed a significant effect of overall website and mobileapplication-based interventions on depression at posttest. Subgroup meta-analyses showed that ICBT andwebsite-based interventions had significant effects on depression at posttest. However, there was no significanteffect at follow-up assessments.
Conclusion: Website and mobile application-based interventions, specifically ICBT,are recommended for adolescents and young adults with depression. Further randomized controlled trialsconducting follow-up assessments are required to confirm their long-term effects.
