Description

Integration of technology in mental healthcare is often met with professional reluctance and scepticism about its efficacy and warmth. This symposium introduces perspectives, measurement instruments, and designs to bridge the gap between (digital) innovation and compassionate care. Researchers will present how technology, when thoughtfully designed and implemented, can not only complement but enhance the compassionate aspects of mental healthcare. With an international panel of researchers, we will discuss views on the compassionate role of technology for mental health and wellbeing. The symposium offers transdisciplinary perspectives from the domains of psychology, design and Human-Technology Interaction (HCI), and philosophy of technology.
