Abstract
Though research has emphasized the impact of user characteristics on engagement with digital mental health interventions (DMHIs), the influence of racial and ethnic background is often overlooked, particularly in youth. The proposed study aims to investigate minority youth engagement with a DMHI from a social validity perspective.
