This study investigated the effects that a group-focused cognitive-behavioral coaching program had on depressive symptoms of a sample of inmates from Nsukka Prisons, Enugu State, Nigeria. The design of the study was pretest–posttest control group . The participants were 30 male inmates, experiencing high levels of depressive symptoms, and randomly assigned to treatment and control groups. The primary outcome measure was depression symptoms as measured using Beck’s Depression Inventory. Repeated-measures ANOVA and the Mann–Whitney U Test were used for data analysis. Results show that exposing inmates to the group-focused cognitive-behavioral coaching program significantly reduced the depressive symptoms of inmates in the treatment group compared with those in the control group. Our results support the use of cognitive-behavioral coaching interventions designed to assist the severely depressed inmates in Nigeria. Further studies should be conducted both in other states of Nigeria and in other countries.

The advent of personal digital assistants (PDAs) at the turn of this century opened new doors to functional independence for people with cognitive impairment. Pocket-sized electronic reminders helped people keep appointments, take medications on time, and move from task to task across a busy day, often without the need for human supervision. As these tools have evolved into smartphones and tablets sporting multiple applications (apps), their uses as assistive technology have expanded to behavioral coaching, augmentative communication, and telehealth purposes, among many others. With so many choices, selecting an appropriate device and app suite for a particular user can seem daunting, but a stepwise, theoretically-based assessment process, a focus on essential intervention strategies, and a willingness to adapt to new devices and changing user needs, can provide important supports for people with cognitive-behavioral challenges.
