Given that inhibitory control seems key in depression, the current project aims at testing whether adaptive, mobile training of inhibitory control abilities can reduce depressive symptoms in those suffering from various mental health conditions. Training is performed using an app installed on the participant's mobile device, and varies adaptively based on individual performance. Cognition, depression, anxiety and function is measured at baseline, immediately following training and after a few weeks (follow up). The study is conducted on a sample of youth at a mental health facility in Nes Ziona.
