Participant Adherence and Contact Behavior in a Guided Internet Intervention for Depressive Symptoms: Exploratory Study

Apart from adherence to web-based programs, easily measurable aspects of guidance could also serve as indicators for the likelihood of participants’ symptom improvement. Indeed, there is anecdotal evidence that the number of messages written by participants may provide clues (personal communication from a study by Berger and colleagues [11]). For example, some participants had written many messages to the therapists and sought more contact.

Technology-Supported Guidance Models to Stimulate Nursing Students’ Self-Efficacy in Clinical Practice: Scoping Review

The concept of a technology-supported guidance model in nursing education entails integrating tools, theories, and technological resources to improve guidance and support throughout students’ educational journey. The implementation of these technological models, including online platforms, virtual simulations, and digital resources, seeks to enhance the effectiveness and interactivity of nursing education, tailoring it to the users’ individual needs [22].

Assessing the Accuracy and Comprehensiveness of ChatGPT in Offering Clinical Guidance for Atopic Dermatitis and Acne Vulgaris

When facing barriers to timely and accessible in-person dermatologic care, patients may look for guidance on skin health from alternative sources like artificial intelligence platforms. Chat GPT, a language processing tool trained on web-based articles, books, and websites, has the potential to enhance information accessibility [1,2]. However, literature assessing its dermatologic utility is scant [3].

Utility of ChatGPT in Clinical Practice

Utility of ChatGPT in Clinical Practice

The use of Chat GPT in answering medical queries has shown promise in assisting health care professionals by providing reliable information and guidance. However, Chat GPT’s responses are generated based on patterns and knowledge learned from training data, and it does not currently have up-to-date medical information or take into account specific patient situations.

Evaluating the Efficacy of a Guided and Unguided Internet-Based Self-help Intervention for Chronic Loneliness: Protocol for a 3-Arm Randomized Controlled Trial

Evaluating the Efficacy of a Guided and Unguided Internet-Based Self-help Intervention for Chronic Loneliness: Protocol for a 3-Arm Randomized Controlled Trial

However, guidance (ie, weekly human contact by email) might affect the decrease in loneliness other than through CBT by addressing principles relevant to building meaningful relationships (eg, validation) [54]. Moreover, guidance also yields larger effects when comparing guided and unguided interventions in other application fields of ICBT, such as depression [60]. Thus, it is important to investigate the effect of guidance on outcomes in internet interventions for loneliness.
