What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating an AI-based narrative intervention called Aurora, designed to support emotional expression, identity processes, and emotional well-being in both clinical and non-clinical populations. The study includes healthy adults, adults with diagnosed mental disorders in residential care, and healthy older adults. Aurora uses a chatbot-mediated storytelling process guided by licensed mental health professionals to help participants create a personalized life narrative or life book. The study aims to assess emotional affect, mental well-being, and recovery outcomes through quantitative and qualitative measures. Aurora is delivered in structured guided sessions supervised by trained facilitators. There are three study arms a single-session arm for healthy adults to assess usability and emotional safety a four-session intervention over two weeks for adults with mental disorders in residential care and a two-session intervention over two weeks for healthy older adults aged 65 and above. Sessions involve narrative reconstruction with written content and optional audio contributions. The interventions are conducted in secure professional environments with data protection compliance. Participants provide informed consent and engage in guided storytelling sessions according to their assigned arm. Assessments include pre- and post-session affect measures, usability surveys, satisfaction ratings, and qualitative feedback. For adults with mental disorders and healthy older adults, ecological momentary assessment is conducted before, during, and after the intervention. The study carefully monitors emotional safety and anonymizes data. Participation duration varies by arm, ranging from a single session to multiple guided sessions over two weeks with follow-up assessments.
