Abstract in brief

  • The systematic review highlights that adherence to web-based health interventions is generally low (around 50%), and emphasizes the importance of considering technology as an integral part of these interventions, rather than just a delivery tool.
  • The study analyzed 101 articles and found that most interventions are designed for weekly use, include interactive features, and employ some persuasive technology elements, with primary task support being the most commonly used.
  • The research indicates that certain intervention features and persuasive technology elements, such as setup and updates, significantly influence adherence, and there are notable differences across healthcare areas in how these interventions are used and maintained.]
