 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): An important development in the field of public health is the emergence of behavioral health technologies and mobile health (mHealth) applications (apps). Recovery Record (RR) is a self-monitoring app that aims to enhance engagement in recovery for individuals with eating disorders (EDs), and has demonstrated wide appeal and reach over its 2-year period of prototype-testing. In line with the objectives of a Fast Track SBIR project, we aim to develop the prototype into an evidence-based adaptive intervention and test it against the current one-size-fits-all approach. RR's core functionality is eating and symptom self-monitoring, which preliminary data reported in this application suggests can facilitate a clinically meaningful reduction in symptoms in users with specific characteristics. The most potent predictor of symptom reduction is severity of cognitive distortions. The next step in app development and the first aim of our work program is to develop and pilot content that helps users challenge distorted thinking tailored to the needs of their symptom profile. In the second phase, we will randomize registered users of RR to receive either RR augmented with content tailored to their needs (RR-A), or RR in its current standard format (RR-S). We will test the efficacy of RR-A by comparing it to the standard product (RR-S). By the end of the study, the resultant high-quality evidence-based product will have commercial value. The overarching purpose of this study is to build on the success of RR-S and develop it into a high quality evidence based adaptive intervention (RR-A).

 描述（由申请人提供）：公共卫生领域的一项重要发展是行为健康技术和移动健康（mHealth）应用程序（应用程序）的出现，恢复记录（RR）是一种自我监控应用程序，旨在提高参与度。在饮食失调 (ED) 患者的康复中，并在 2 年原型测试期间表现出广泛的吸引力和影响力，符合快速通道 SBIR 的目标。 项目中，我们的目标是将原型开发为基于证据的适应性干预措施，并根据当前通用的方法对其进行测试，RR 的核心功能是饮食和症状自我监测，本申请中报告的初步数据表明可以。促进具有特定特征的用户症状减轻的最有效的预测因素是认知扭曲的严重程度。应用程序开发的下一步和我们工作计划的首要目标是开发和试点帮助用户挑战的内容。扭曲的思维适合他们的需要在第二阶段，我们将随机分配 RR 的注册用户，以接收根据其需求定制内容的 RR (RR-A)，或采用当前标准格式的 RR (RR-S)。通过将 RR-A 与标准产品 (RR-S) 进行比较，在研究结束时，所得的高质量循证产品将具有商业价值。 RR-S 并将其发展为基于高质量证据的适应性干预（RR-A）。
