Market Size Estimation

The total size of the mental health screening market was arrived at after data triangulation from various approaches, as mentioned below. After completing each approach, a weighted average of the three approaches was taken based on the level of assumptions used in each approach.

Approach 1: Mental Health Screening Market (Revenue Share Analysis)

• Revenues for individual companies were gathered from public sources and databases for each market segment.
• Revenues of private companies were gathered through paid databases such as Factiva and Hoovers.
• Shares of the mental health screening businesses of leading players were gathered from secondary sources to the extent available. In certain cases, shares have been ascertained after a detailed analysis of various parameters, including product portfolios, market positioning, and geographic reach.
• Individual shares or revenue estimates were validated through expert interviews.
• The market size was then extrapolated to obtain the global market. It was further validated through expert interviews.

Approach 2: Segmental Extrapolation

Separate research approaches were followed to estimate the revenue from mental health screening tools and continuous monitoring wearable devices used for mental health screening.

• Mental health screening tools (excluding continuous monitoring wearable devices):
• The total number of psychiatrists in the US was determined for 2022. The percentage of psychiatrists using mental health screening tools offered by vendors was identified through extensive secondary research and validated through insights from primary interviews.
• The average price of mental health screening tools for yearly subscriptions was considered to arrive at the US mental health screening market for clinical settings in 2022.
• Considering the share of clinical settings, revenues of the overall market in the US were determined for 2022.
• The US mental health screening market was extrapolated to arrive at the global market.
• The market for continuous monitoring wearable devices:
• The total prevalence of mental health disorders in the US was determined for 2022, and the share of people opting for assessments was identified through extensive secondary research and validated through insights from primary interviews.
• The share of people using continuous monitoring wearable devices for mental health screening was assumed based on secondary research and insights from primary interviews.
• The average price of continuous monitoring wearable devices was determined through secondary sources to arrive at the US market for continuous monitoring wearable devices.
• The US market for continuous monitoring wearable devices was extrapolated to arrive at the global market for continuous monitoring wearable devices.
• The sum of revenues from mental health screening tools and continuous monitoring wearable devices used for mental health screening provided the revenue of the global mental health screening market. The assumptions at each step were validated through primary interviews.

Approach 3: Primary Interviews

• As a part of the primary research process, individual respondents’ insights on the market size and growth were taken during the interview (regional and global, as applicable).
• All the responses were collated, and a weighted average was taken to derive a probabilistic estimate of the market size and growth rate.
