Even though was over two decades ago, interrelation diagnostics components still debated: additional evidence required to improve multidisciplinary treatment approach for this complex condition. MD one signs impairment. present study aims investigating determinants predictors allow an early diagnosis implement adequate preventive strategies.

Previous research has identified maladaptive emotion regulation as a key factor in psychopathology. Thus, addressing via scalable, low-threshold digital interventions – such smartphone-based Cognitive Bias Modification (CBM) holds important therapeutic potential. Using randomized-controlled crossover trial, we tested the efficacy of an integrated CBM module within Affect Regulation Training (ART, i.e., CBM-ART) that targeted through elements appraisal-based and approach avoidance training. Undergraduate students reporting elevated stress were randomized to one-week active intervention (Mindgames; including psychoeducation, quiz, CBM-ART; n = 40), control training (Emo Shape; placebo swiping task; 36) or waitlist (n 25). Before after intervention, assessed regulation, interpretation bias, depression. We further post-training reactivity using anagram task. Results indicated improved negative (OR 0.35) positive 2.40) biases symptom measures (d 0.52–0.87). However, showed attenuated concurrent pre-post changes on (i.e., OR 0.53 for negative, 1.49 interpretations) 0.26–0.91). The was rated positively terms acceptability usability.

Adherence low dropout rate high (55.6%). The perceived website visual aesthetic were rated high. Credibility expectancy medium level. Satisfaction appearance improved significantly in intention-to-treat analysis (d 0.58). sum, symptom-related outcomes evaluation showed positive trend albeit study conduction difficult.
