Research
Research was lightweight and based on target demo assumptions for this proof of concept.Interviews
- 3 women + 2 men, ages 25-44, living in the greater Los Angeles area
- Inquired on their comfort-level in speaking with “someone” about private information over text and how they take care of their mental health
What I learned...
-
Many don’t take the time to think about their mental health, let alone practice habits to promote good mental health
-
Most said they wouldn’t take the time to fill out a questionaire more than 3 minutes long, just not a priority
- Most were comfortable in answering questions as time permitted
