A literature review of remote mental health screening: barriers, potential solutions, and tools
Year: 2025
Type: review
Abstract: Remote Measurement Technologies (RMTs) have the potential to become widely used tools for monitoring and treating mental health. However, their adoption faces multiple barriers. We conducted a focused literature review to identify commonly used devices and assessment surveys, synthesize barriers to their use, and explore proposed solutions. Our review highlighted several challenges in implementing RMTs, including technological limitations, user-related factors, legal and ethical concerns, research constraints, and difficulties integrating these technologies into clinical practice. While studies have examined barriers through user interviews, empirical analyses of success factors remain limited, highlighting a need for further research in this area.
