Mental Health on the Go: Effects of a Gamified Attention-Bias Modification Mobile Application in Trait-Anxious Adults
Open accessAbstract
Interest in the use of mobile technology to deliver mental-health services has grown in light of the economic and practical barriers to treatment. Yet research on alternative delivery strategies that are more affordable, accessible, and engaging is in its infancy. Attention-bias modification training (ABMT) has the potential to reduce treatment barriers as a mobile intervention for stress and anxiety, but the degree to which ABMT can be embedded in a mobile gaming format and its potential for transfer of benefits is unknown. In the present study, we examined effects of a gamified ABMT mobile application in highly trait-anxious participants ( N = 78). A single session of the active training relative to the placebo training reduced subjective anxiety and observed stress reactivity. Critically, the long (45 min) but not the short (25 min) active training condition reduced the core cognitive process implicated in ABMT (threat bias) as measured by an untrained, gold-standard protocol.

Dennis and O'Toole (2014) found rewards (points) associated with reduced subjective anxiety and stress reactivity in highly trait-anxious participants.
“With a group of highly trait-anxious participants, Dennis and O'Toole (2014) found rewards (in the form of points) associated with reduced subjective anxiety and stress reactivity.”
From Gamification for health and wellbeing: A systematic review of the literature (2016) · cites this paper as Dennis and O'Toole (2014)
The Method (Measures; page not supplied) says participants earned points during the app task. The Results (Effects of Training Condition on Anxious Mood and Stress Reactivity; page not supplied) report reduced subjective anxiety for short-training ABMT, and the Discussion reports reduced stress reactivity. The paper does not establish that points or rewards themselves were associated with those reductions; its reported associations concern training condition and changes in threat bias. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredDennis and O'Toole (2014) found a gamified mobile attention-bias modification training using virtual characters significantly reduced subjective anxiety and stress reactivity compared to placebo.
“Dennis and O'Toole (2014) compared a gamified mobile attention-bias modification training for anxiety using virtual characters with a placebo training and found it to significantly reduce subjective anxiety and stress reactivity.”

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.
