Call for paper for the Special Issue: Artificial Intelligence in Adolescent Mental Health

2022-11-21

Aims and Scope

Adolescence is a critical period of physical and mental development. It’s also a high-risk period for the development of mental disorders. In recent years, the global mental health problems of adolescents are growing viciously. Adolescent mental health is closely related to social development. Artificial intelligence (AI) has great potential to solve many problems that cannot be properly solved by classical science. The field of mental health is one of the most important areas where the potential of AI can be exploited, such as recognition, diagnosis,treatment, nursing and rehabilitation of mental health problems. In addition, artificial intelligence can also be used to establish risk warning models to achieve the goal of personalized long-term care for mental health problems, and there are clear societal benefits to deal with adolescent psychiatric problems with the technical advantages of AI. Meanwhile, the research related to artificial intelligence and adolescent mental health is in its infancy, and more researches are still needed to discover or determine the role of AI.
