T1 LECTURE
Learning goal: understand the main factors increasing and decreasing the impact of digital
health applications
How impactful are digital health applications?
Impact – what is the evidence? – physical activity (Romeo et al., 2019)
• Aim: this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the effectiveness of
smartphone apps for increasing objectively measured physical activity in adults
• Current status:
o Which health behavior theories are employed most often?
o Which features are employed most often?
Theory use and implemented features in apps targeting physical activity
• App based on recognized behavior-change theory
o Social cognitive theory (e.g., theory of planned behavior)
o Principles of reinforcement
o Social influencers’ perspective
o Taxonomy of behavior change
• App features
o Visible display of steps
o Physical activity performance summary
o Goal setting
o Visual display of goal achievement
o Motivational prompts
Results
• No significant effect of app-based physical activity interventions – steps per day and
moderate-to-vigorous PA
• But: interventions were effective (significant) when the intervention duration was 3
months or less (compared with longer interventions)
• And: physical activity apps that targeted physical activity in isolation were more
effective than apps that targeted physical activity in combination with diet
Impact – what is the evidence? – healthy eating behavior (Villinger et al., 2019)
• Aim: this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the effectiveness of
smartphone apps for changing nutrition behavior and nutrition-related health outcomes
• Current status:
o Which health behavior change techniques are employed most often?
, Most implemented features in apps targeting eating behavior
• Goals and planning
• Feedback and monitoring
• Social support
• Shaping knowledge
• Comparison of behavior
• Associations
• Reward and threat
• Antecedent
• Self-belief
Results
• Overall, a small significant of app-based mobile interventions on nutrition behaviors
and nutrition-related outcomes
• Only studies targeting short term (<3 months) and/or intermediate-term (3-6 months)
follow-up intervals yielded significant (small) effect sizes; effects of long term (>6
months) follow-up not significant
Other meta-analyses/reviews
• Medicine adherence: 7/11 studies mobile app increased medicine adherence (Pere-
Jover et al., 2019)
• Alcohol intake: brief web-based interventions decreased the number of alcoholic
drinks consumed (Oosterveen et al., 2017)
• Digital (web) school-based behavior change interventions increased fruit and
vegetable intake and physical activity and reduced screen time in adolescents
immediately after the intervention; effects not sustained at follow-up and no effects
for alcohol intake and smoking (Champion et al., 2019)
o Qualities of studies/evidence low – very low
Maximizing the impact of digital health applications: two main factors
• The effective components should be evidence-based (effective ingredient)
o The application employs features that target determinants from health
behavior theories / features that are based on established behavioral change
techniques
• The uptake of the application should be sufficient (effective dose)
o The app should be designed based on scientific theories of technology
acceptance and engagement. The app should be human-centered
A holistic framework to improve the uptake and impact of eHealth technologies (Van
Gemert-Pijnen et al., 2011)
• “High-tech with a low impact”
• “Low impact” not because technology does not work
o Low support of health care professionals
