Application of Synchronous Text-Based Dialogue Systems in Mental Health Interventions: Systematic Review

Application of Synchronous Text-Based Dialogue Systems in Mental Health Interventions: Systematic Review

We excluded studies if the intervention was not primarily based on synchronous text-based communication, such as when the main mode of communication was spoken communication (eg, telephone) or face-to-face communication (eg, video chat and in-person therapy session). Studies were also excluded if the format was not one-on-one, such as group dialogue (eg, a psychologist moderates an online group discussion in a chat-room).
