Study Summary
This trial will test a mobile health app to help young people at risk for psychosis to improve their health and connect to treatment options.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for young adults aged 18-30 in the U.S. who are at risk for psychosis but haven't been treated with antipsychotic meds or regular psychotherapy recently. They must own an iPhone and be within five years of their first psychotic episode or symptom onset.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a mobile health intervention, NORTH, designed to help those at risk for psychosis. It compares the full version (with lessons, practices, tracking, and help-seeking resources) against a 'Lite' version that lacks help-seeking features.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves a digital intervention rather than medication, traditional side effects aren't expected. However, users may experience discomfort or stress from self-monitoring symptoms or engaging with mental health content.
