Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a mobile real-time cognitive behavioral intervention for serious mental illness (SMI) and to identify the facilitators, barriers, and costs of implementation. We would like to determine whether the addition of a mobile phone monitoring software program to a brief behavioral intervention for bipolar disorder or schizophrenia improves symptoms arising from the disorders. In this study we will be assessing the feasibility, acceptability and short term effect of the mobile phone enhanced intervention for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
