Can a 10-Minute daily app boost teen mental health?

NCT ID NCT07700264

First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a mobile app called NEMO-I can help adolescents monitor and improve their emotional and cognitive health. The app offers seven brief, gamified activities—like facial expression imitation, singing, and mindfulness—that take about 10 minutes each day. Researchers will compare before-and-after assessments in 140 middle and high school students to see if the app reduces symptoms of depression and anxiety and improves attention and thinking skills.
