Abstract: A depression scoring system obtains data from a large population of individuals including data about each of a plurality of different activities in relevant categories, and information about each of the individuals. Cohorts of individuals are defined as individuals who have similar statistical characteristics such as similar age, socioeconomic status, and sex. For each of the cohorts, a distribution of the data is obtained, and the scores of the top n %, e.g., 25% is set as a goal for the remaining members of the cohort. These goals are incrementally set and personalized for individual users to easily meet. This process is repeated constantly.

Abstract: A system of monitoring depression in a user, uses a computer system. The system initially calibrates, to determine baseline information about the user for each of a plurality of different categories of action of the user and continues learning about the user to make minor adjustments to prescribed behaviors and therapies. The categories can include sleep, diet, screen time, exercise, social interaction, medication compliance, and academic performance. The computer system uses the baseline information to determine user behavior, for each of the different categories that is correlated with likely behavior associated with depression. After initially calibrating, the computer system operates to monitor each of said different categories of action of the user and compares the monitored categories with the baseline information to determine whether the user is complying by acting within specified parameters within each category. The system can provide positive reinforcement and alerts.
