Using DTx in bCBT can be especially useful for psychoeducation, as it helps reinforce the uptake of therapy session content, such as coping skills and key concepts like the biopsychosocial framework.
“In accordance with the results achieved by Wu et al [30], who conducted a quantitative study with patients with symptoms of anxiety or depression, our results show that using DTx in bCBT can be especially useful for psychoeducation, as it helps to reinforce the uptake of the content of therapy sessions, such as coping skills, and key concepts such as the biopsychosocial framework [55].”

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.
