dc.description.abstractOver the past decade, there has been an increase in the number of digital technologies available for mental health purposes. At the same time, engaging in regular physical activity has been shown to promote mental health and well-being, but activity levels are still low in people with mental illness due to several factors. The aim of this study is to identify and better understand what digital technologies are available for physical activity promotion in mental healthcare contexts. A scoping review was conducted in accordance with the Arksey and O’Malley scoping review framework and the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Systematic literature searches of PsycINFO, Academic Search Complete, Web of Science, and PubMed was performed with a focus on the last ten years. Overall, 11 papers were included. Data was charted and synthesized, and a narrative synthesis was conducted. This scoping review provides a broad overview of the digital tools or technologies that are being used, such virtual reality, wearable devices and mobile applications, and the health benefits or barriers associated with their use for people with mental illness in clinical settings. The results also show that digital technologies could promote willingness to engage in physical activity. Conclusions: These findings could guide further research on how digital technologies for physical activity promotion can be effectively integrated into psychosocial rehabilitation settings and support mental health and recovery.por
