Conflict of Interest

Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Listed Research Project
Can mental health apps work in the real world? A feasibility pilot study

Millions of people in the US download 'apps' onto their smartphones and tablets to be used for health and mental health reasons. Although these apps are popular, and smartphone/tablet owners can download any number of apps to improve mood and improve their concentration, memory, and thinking, we have almost no information as to whether these apps work as they are meant to work. In particular, we have little information as to whether people really download and use these apps they way they are supposed to, and if the apps result in better mood, clearer thinking, and better management of daily chores and activities. In this proposed study, 150 people will be assigned, by chance, one of three different apps, one based on an evidence-based depression treatment, one based on brain theories of depression, and an information control. Because no one has yet done a study entirely over smartphone and tablet devices, will be developing the research methods needed to find out if these apps are used as intended and if they really help with mood and thinking. The information we learn from this project will use used to plan a study large enough to detect the true effects of health apps on mood, thinking and daily activities.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, public records requests filed at multiple public state universities

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.

Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.

ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
