Computer-mediated support refers to the use of technology, such as computers or mobile devices, to provide assistance, guidance, or counseling to individuals in need of emotional or practical support. This type of support can take various forms, including online therapy sessions, support groups in virtual environments, or chatbots designed to provide information and resources. Computer-mediated support offers many advantages, such as accessibility and convenience, as individuals can receive support from the comfort of their own home and at any time. It also allows for anonymity, which may be particularly beneficial for those who prefer to keep their struggles private. Researchers in this area study the effectiveness of computer-mediated support interventions, as well as the ways in which technology can be used to enhance traditional forms of support. They also explore ethical considerations, such as privacy and confidentiality, and work to develop guidelines for the use of computer-mediated support in a safe and effective manner.
