PSYS541 Evidence-based Digital Intervention to Reduce Health Disparities
This is an elective course on the clinical use of digital health tools. The course will focus on how to blend psychology and technology to help the greatest number of people possible worldwide. Clinical psychologists in the 21st Century will increasingly use digital tools to enhance the effectiveness of their interventions and to expand their reach to serve those currently underserved, including those who do not speak English. These tools have the potential to reduce health disparities and reach diverse populations. We will examine the growing number of online psychological interventions for health (Websites, mobile applications, and other digital tools) that have been shown to be effective in formal outcome studies.
