Digital technology use, whether on smartphones, tablets, laptops,
or other devices, is prevalent across cultures. Certain types and
patterns of digital technology use have been associated with mental
health concerns, but these technologies also have the potential to
improve mental health through the gathering of information, by
targeting interventions, and through delivery of care to remote
areas. The Oxford Handbook of Digital Technologies and Mental
Health provides a comprehensive and authoritative review of the
relationships between mental health and digital technology use,
including how such technologies may be harnessed to improve mental
health. Understanding the positive and negative correlates of the
use of digital technologies has significant personal and public
health implications, and as such this volume explores in
unparalleled depth the historical and cultural contexts in which
technology use has evolved; conceptual issues surrounding digital
technologies; potential positive and potential negative impacts of
such use; treatment, assessment, and legal considerations around
digital technologies and mental health; technology use in specific
populations; the use of digital technologies to treat psychosocial
disorders; and the treatment of problematic internet use and
gaming. With chapters contributed by leading scientists from around
the world, this Handbook will be of interest to those in medical
and university settings, students and clinicians, and policymakers.
