Smoking-cessation assistance: before and after stage 1 meaningful use implementation.
This study examined whether smoking status assessment, cessation assistance, and odds of being a current smoker changed after Stage 1 Meaningful Use (MU) implementation. Its findings suggest that incentives for MU of electronic health records increase the odds of smoking assessment and cessation assistance, which could lead to decreased smoking rates among vulnerable populations.

Self-tracking for mental wellness: understanding expert perspectives and student experiences.
Recent studies with college student populations have examined the feasibility of collecting everyday mood, activity, and social data. However, these studies do not account for students' experiences and challenges adopting self-tracking technologies to support mental wellness goals. In this paper, the authors present two studies conducted to better understand self-tracking for stress management and mental wellness in student populations.

Accuracy of electronic health record-derived data for the identification of incident ADHD.
The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of electronic health record (EHR)-derived diagnoses in identifying children with incident (i.e., newly diagnosed) ADHD. The authors describe their study and suggest that studies predicated on the identification of incident ADHD cases need to carefully consider study designs that minimize the likelihood of case misclassification.
