Abstract

![CDATA[There are many health and wellbeing self-assessment tools, but using paper-based versions of these tools limits the wider applicability of them in the current digital world. Hence many self-assessment tools are implemented as web/mobile applications, allowing efficient mass data collection. The current implementation approaches of computerising health and wellbeing self-assessment tools exclude these tools being re-used in a different setting, such as in a different research project or by another healthcare practitioner; where the collected data needs to be independent of the original implementation. This paper presents a framework that facilitates the implementation of health and wellbeing self-assessment tools as templates, much like an MS PowerPoint or Word template, allowing new instances of the tool to be easily created and data to be independent of the original implementation. This framework provides both a research and a clinical component. The research component gives the ability to collect data, view graphs to enable some basic analysis and the possibility to download the data for further analysis. The clinical component enables the delivery of relevant information and resources to clients/patients depending on the outcomes of the questionnaires. This can be used strategically to tailor information and interventions for the particular stage or category a client is at, and thereby avoiding irrelevant information and information overload for the client.]]
