This systematic review and meta-analysis assess the impact of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on digital interventions to reduce loneliness and social isolation. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, we searched seven databases and grey literature (2022–) and applied random-effects models to pool effect sizes by intervention type. A total of 40 RCTs involving 6062 participants were included, with one-third focusing on younger individuals. Loneliness was assessed in 36 studies, while eight examined social isolation. Interventions were classified as psychological (k = 25), social (k = 4), activity-based (k = 4), robot-based (k = 4), and social media reduction (k = 5). Psychological interventions—especially those with group or social components—along with group-based activities and robotic pets, were effective in reducing loneliness. In contrast, social contact interventions, self-guided individual activities, and conversational robots showed limited impact. Social media reduction interventions suggested potential benefits, though results were not statistically significant. The evidence base exhibited moderate to high risk of bias, heterogeneity, and limited long-term follow-up. We provide specific recommendations for future interventions and research, including leveraging digital technologies for enhanced personalization, using digital tools for signposting non-digital interventions, systematically comparing digital and non-digital versions of the same intervention, and, most critically, examining the impact of increasingly popular AI-driven and humanlike social chatbots.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48615,"journal":{"name":"Internet Interventions-The Application of Information Technology in Mental and Behavioural Health","volume":"41 ","pages":"Article 100856"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144614190","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Work-focused therapy for those with CMD has shown positive results on return to work, but availability of such treatment is scarce.</div></div><div><h3>Objective</h3><div>To investigate a transdiagnostic work-focused Internet Delivered Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (W-ICBT) intervention. Further, to investigate its feasibility in terms of use and adherence, including the participants experience of perceived effects, for outpatients on sick leave with diagnoses of depression and/or anxiety.</div></div><div><h3>Method</h3><div>We conducted a naturalistic feasibility study using a convergent, mixed-methods pre-post design. Outcomes included adherence and use of the treatment, return to work, work related self-efficacy, symptoms of depression and anxiety, quality of life and the experience of participants through qualitative interviews.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>19 patients were screened, 15 included and 11 completed the 12-week treatment. Degree of sick leave was reduced from 79 % to 32 % for the completer sample (<em>g</em> = 0.95, <em>p</em> = .003), with statistically significant results on self-efficacy (<em>g</em> = 1.05 <em>p</em> = .005), depression (<em>g</em> = 0.81, <em>p</em> = .024), quality of life (<em>g</em> = 1.20, <em>p</em> = .002). No significant changes were observed on measures of anxiety and impairment of daily living. These results were supported by the findings from the qualitative interviews.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>W-ICBT appears to be a promising approach to reducing work absenteeism and warrants further research.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48615,"journal":{"name":"Internet Interventions-The Application of Information Technology in Mental and Behavioural Health","volume":"41 ","pages":"Article 100855"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144548849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
