Other methodological considerations for adaptive interactive technologies applied to eHealth may be appropriate to consider for mHealth interventions.
“Other methodological considerations for adaptive interactive technologies applied to eHealth also may be appropriate to consider for mHealth interventions [107, 108].”
From Health behavior models in the age of mobile interventions: are our theories up to the task? (2011) · cites this paper as [108]
RCTs cannot provide insight into process outcomes or how use of different components of eHealth technology contributed to healthier living, improved well-being, or daily tasks.
“Therefore, no insight can be obtained on process outcomes or how the use of the different components of the technology has contributed to healthier living, improved well-being, or a user’s ability to conduct daily tasks [7,9,10].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
