@HM_Christensen calling for a shake-up in her keynote at #isrii12. We need to better understand the role of technology on the health and wellbeing of society, the way we live, work and socialise.

So proud to announce the official launch of Mello - a free, evidence-based app to help the 1.3 million young Australians struggling with mental ill-health. The app works by targeting stuck thinking (worry/rumination). Download it in Oz for free - check out mello.org.au/

We're excited to introduce Orygen Digital's newest innovation, Mello: a free app designed to address stuck thinking.
It combines practical techniques with tailored therapy activities – and a recent trial found it eased stuck thinking for 83% of users.

Excited to share our new study, which explores why people expend #effort. We use these insights to understand whether common or unique factors contribute to effort-related symptoms (eg, apathy) among individuals with #mood & #psychotic disorders 1/n. academic.oup.com/schizophren…

These findings highlight the potential for computational phenotyping in tailoring interventions. Eg, for people with certain computational phenotypes, enhancing reward/value sensitivity not be effective for effort-related symptoms. Working memory may also need to be targeted. 9/n
