This project aims to determine the effectiveness of an FTP-based mobile phone application in the alleviation of clinical symptoms of depression. In an attempt to change thought progression to be broader and more readily expansive, we had translated paradigms meant to expand thinking patterns into engaging mobile games. Our hypothesis is that the FTP-based mobile phone application will be able to decrease depressive clinical symptoms in a significant manner.
Participants meeting the inclusion criteria will be asked to play the app and undergo clinical and self-assessment evaluations regularly over the course of 8 weeks.
