Abstract: Psychology is a quite young discipline in the field of medicine. Established from Wilhelm Wundt in the second half of the 19th century it very soon got its first contacts to information technology. This keynote outlines the relationship of psychology and information technology from the very beginning in the fields of clinical and educational applications and human interaction aspects and illustrates the current development towards a field of digital mental health. In particular, the use of Virtual Reality as a an approach in the treatment mental disorders and diseases such as Anxiety disorders or Parkinson’s disease, the therapeutic use of AVATARS in patients with auditory verbal hallucinations, the predictive power of digital drawing applications i.e. to detect Alzheimer’s disease, or the attitude to robots in the health care system are spotlights illustrating the growing interaction of these domains which are addressed in this keynote. But also critical questions on the impact of d igitalization on human identity i.e. in child development, working environment or in the increased use of wearables and smart applications in leisure time fostering a need of quantification of life are touched.
