Using Technology to Improve Treatment Outcomes for Children and Adolescents with Eating Disorders CHILD AND ADOLESCENT PSYCHIATRIC CLINICS OF NORTH AMERICA Darcy, A. M., Lock, J. 2017; 26 (1): 33-?

Abstract

Dissemination and implementation of evidence-based treatments are among the biggest challenges facing clinical psychiatry. Developing scalable evidence-based treatments is a major priority and fraught with challenges. This article describes the development of 3 technology-based innovations. It discusses the use of massive open online courses (MOOCs) and mobile applications. Three projects are presented: (1) the modification of a MOOC methodology for psychotherapy training clinicians in manualized family-based therapy (FBT) for adolescents with anorexia nervosa; (2) a modified MOOC platform for the delivery of FBT; and (3) the development of mobile applications for treatment augmentation and delivery.
