This is the ultimate resource for supervising behavior analysts. In this Applied Behavior Analysis model, the supervising Behavior Analyst is expected to design individualized interventions for the patient while also ensuring the behavior technician is implementing those interventions correctly.

Der von den Autoren verwendete Sammelbegriff ¿Stress-Spektrumstörung¿ erläutert wesentliche ursächliche determinierende und aufrechterhaltende Faktoren, sowie Beschwerden von körperlichen und psychischen Überlastungsreaktionen. Es werden konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen für jene dargestellt, welche unter Beschwerden oder bereits psychischen Diagnosen leiden. Dies mit besonderem Fokus auf in der Öffentlichkeit stehenden Personen wie etwa Manager oder Vorstände. Ausgang für das Erklärungs-, Bedingungs-, Störungs- und Aufrechterhaltungsmodell sind hierbei zum einen phylogenetische Schemata von Menschen ganz allgemein, sowie individuelle biographiespezifische. Ergänzend zur Erläuterung der Störungsmodelle werden konkrete Hilfestellungen gegeben, seien es nun phylogenetisch-menschliche, oder individuell-biographische.

Die therapeutische Freiheit bezieht sich auf das Recht und die Verantwortung von Therapeut:innen, die beste Behandlungsmethode für Patient:innen auszuwählen. Es ist möglich, dass der Einsatz von KI-Algorithmen in der Psychotherapie diese Freiheit bedroht, wenn er z.B. die therapeutischen Entscheidungen dominiert oder ersetzt. Jedoch kann der Einsatz von KI-Algorithmen auch positive Auswirkungen haben, etwa im Bereich der Qualitätssicherung. Möglicherweise können Algorithmen-basierte Tools uns darin unterstützen, typische menschliche Verzerrungen und Unzulänglichkeiten bei komplexen Vorhersagen zu reduzieren. Sollten sich dann also Psychotherapeut:innen nicht die Freiheit nehmen, technische Hilfsmittel (incl. zukünftiger KI-Algorithmen) zur Unterstützung heranzuziehen¿?Die wichtigste Freiheits-Bedrohung scheint darin zu liegen, dass Psychotherapeut:innen sich selbst beschränken könnten oder sich durch KI das Denken abnehmen lassen. Dieses essential gibt einenEinblick und stellt weiterführende Fragen.

This innovative book focuses on potential, limitations, and recommendations for the digital mental health landscape. Authors synthesize existing literature on the validity of digital health technologies, including smartphones apps, sensors, chatbots and telepsychiatry for mental health disorders. They also note that collecting real-time biological information is usually better than just collect filled-in forms, and that will also mitigate problems related to recall bias in clinical appointments. Limitations such as confidentiality, engagement and retention rates are moreover discussed. Presented in fifteen chapters, the work addresses the following questions: may smartphones and sensors provide more accurate information about patients¿ symptoms between clinical appointments, which in turn avoid recall bias? Is there evidence that digital phenotyping could help in clinical decisions in mental health? Is there scientific evidence to support the use of mobile interventions in mental health? Digital Mental Health will help clinicians and researchers, especially psychiatrists and psychologists, to define measures and to determine how to test apps or usefulness, feasibility and efficacy in order to develop a consensus about reliability. These professionals will be armed with the latest evidence as well as prepared to a new age of mental health.
