We are excited to announce the launch of a new field study aimed at measuring the effectiveness of Dr. Mooves A&D in empowering children to manage their anxiety and depression. This initiative marks a significant step in our commitment to providing innovative, scientifically-backed mental health solutions for children aged 5-12.

Why This Field Study Matters

In order to substantiate the cognitive and emotional benefits of our app, this study will track the mood and emotional well-being of children who use Dr. Mooves A&D regularly over a period of 6 to 9 months. By incorporating short questionnaires into the app, we’ll be able to gather valuable data on measurable and subclinical anxiety and depression levels — key risk factors for childhood suicide.

This study will allow us to provide solid scientific findings, demonstrating the real-world impact of Dr. Mooves A&D on children’s mental health. It also helps ensure that we continue to innovate and improve our app’s ability to promote emotional resilience in children.

Study Timeline and Structure

The field study will begin as soon as the app is officially launched. We aim to collect data immediately, with interim results. Our primary goal is to measure changes in both free and subclinical anxiety and depression among regular users of the app. Over time, we expect to demonstrate meaningful reductions in these risk factors, which are key to lowering the likelihood of suicide.

Study Participants

We will initially target children aged 5 to 12 within the United States. However, as the study progresses, we plan to expand to other regions, including EU, China and India, allowing us to perform unique proprietary designed cultural comparisons and broaden the study’s impact.

Study Objectives and Expected Outcomes

The primary objective of the field study is to show that regular use of Dr. Mooves A&D leads to a reduction in suicide rates in children. Our secondary objective is to better understand which specific features of the app are most effective in promoting these positive outcomes.

How Findings Will Shape Future App Updates

The findings from this study will directly influence future updates and improvements to Dr. Mooves A&D. Features that promote consistent use of the app or improve mood will drive further optimization. Our commitment to evidence-based improvements means that our app will continuously evolve to better serve children and their mental health needs.

What’s Next?

The study’s success will depend on the number of regular users we attract, and we are eager to demonstrate how Dr. Mooves A&D can make a lasting, positive impact on children’s emotional well-being.
