Building evidence on digital psychotherapies for adults living with depression: a systematic scoping review of populations, interventions and design features of ongoing and planned randomised controlled trials
Overview
This systematic scoping review maps the methodologies, populations, and design features of 681 registered randomized controlled trials evaluating digital psychotherapies for adults with depression between 2018 and 2025. The resource details trial characteristics such as funding sources, geographic distribution, intervention types like cognitive-behavioral therapy, and control conditions used in ongoing, completed, or terminated studies. It is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in the current landscape and methodological trends of digital mental health research.
