We examined clinicians� and researchers� experiences from participation in collaborative research on the introduction of Internet\nand mobile information systems (mHealth systems) in psycho therapeutic routines.The study used grounded theory methodology\nand was set in a collaboration that aimed to develop and evaluate mHealth support of psychotherapy provided to young people.\nSoundness of the central objects developed in the design phase (the collaboration contract, the trial protocol, and the system\ntechnology) was a necessary foundation for successful collaborative mHealth research; neglect of unanticipated organizational\ninfluences during the trial phase was a factor in collaboration failure.The experiences gained in this study can be used in settings\nwhere collaborative research on mHealth systems in mental health is planned.
