Summary

This study tested a mobile app called esTOCma, a serious game designed to teach teachers about obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and reduce stigma. 175 teachers used the app for 10 days or did nothing. Researchers measured changes in OCD knowledge, attitudes, and confidence in helping students. The goal was to see if a simple app could improve mental health literacy in schools.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
esTOCma mobile app (serious game)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, scalable tool to help teachers better understand and support students with OCD.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with 175 teachers, so results may not apply to other groups. The app's effects on actual student outcomes were not measured.
