What Moves Parents to Recommend Digital Mental Health Tools for Youth? Behavioral Insights and Implications.
Article in Journal of community psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In this study we aimed to examine behavioral determinants influencing parents' willingness to recommend digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) to their youth, guided by the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation-Behavior (COM-B) model. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 22 parents of adolescents aged 13-19 years with mental health concerns. Interview transcripts were thematically analyzed using a hybrid inductive-deductive approach. Findings were mapped onto COM-B domains. Capability barriers included low awareness, uncertainty about SSIs, and difficulty navigating digital tools. Opportunity facilitators involved embedding SSIs in trusted settings and receiving endorsements from credible sources, though views on peer recommendations were mixed. Motivation was shaped by alignment with parental values (e.g., safety, communication) and emotional responses such as fear or skepticism related to DMHIs and privacy. Results from this study highlight the need for dissemination strategies that directly address parental concerns and priorities, including culturally relevant messaging, tailored framing, and delivery through familiar and trusted community settings.
