From digital phenotyping to genetic tests for diverse psychiatric and neurological conditions, young people are increasingly engaged in decision-making about the value of predictive mental and cognitive health information.

Data collected using these tools sheds new light on young people’s values and preferences in relation to prediction in mental health and wellbeing.
