Convergence in Mobility Data Sets From Apple, Google, and Meta

Convergence in Mobility Data Sets From Apple, Google, and Meta

Non-public data were obtained from Meta [15] as part of an agreement with Dalhousie University. Meta collected data from 198 countries and territories from February 22, 2020, until May 22, 2022. Major regions targeted by Meta were divided into defined units (600 m2 600 m2). Whenever a user had location services enabled and moved between 2 units, a movement record was assigned. Regions with 300 or less qualifying users in a 24-hour period were disregarded.

Patients with cancer have shared anecdotes of how they started to see advertisements for fake cancer cures after their diagnosis [18,29].

Mobile Apps for Mental Health Issues: Meta-Review of Meta-Analyses

When more than one meta-analysis was found for a mental health problem, we reviewed them all and used the following criteria to select the ones we kept: (1) if most of the same studies were reviewed, we kept the meta-analysis with the largest number of studies; and (2) between an older meta-analysis with many small uncontrolled studies and a more recent meta-analysis including only RCTs, we chose the latter.
