Service users may have different priorities and preferences for treatment compared with mental health professionals. Few studies have explored these potentially important differences. This study sought consensus from a sample of service users regarding priorities and preferences for treatment of psychosis.
A three-stage Delphi study exploring treatment priorities and preferences was conducted with a sample of mental health service users ("experts by experience"). After generation of an initial statement list (stage 1, N=6 participants), 64 diverse elements of mental health treatment were rated during a two-stage online survey process (stage 2, N=32; stage 3, N=21).
Fifteen of 64 treatment-related statements were endorsed as important or essential treatment priorities or preferences by more than 80% of participants during stage 2. Two further statements were similarly endorsed during stage 3.
This study is among the first of its kind and highlights the importance of assessing individual treatment priorities.
与心理健康专业人员相比，服务使用者在治疗方面可能有不同的优先事项和偏好。很少有研究探讨这些潜在的重要差异。本研究旨在从服务使用者样本中就精神病治疗的优先事项和偏好达成共识。
对心理健康服务使用者样本（“有经验的专家”）进行了一项探索治疗优先事项和偏好的三阶段德尔菲研究。在生成初始陈述列表（第1阶段，N = 6名参与者）后，在两阶段在线调查过程中对64个不同的心理健康治疗要素进行了评分（第2阶段，N = 32；第3阶段，N = 21）。
在第2阶段，64条与治疗相关的陈述中有15条被超过80%的参与者认可为重要或基本的治疗优先事项或偏好。在第3阶段，又有两条陈述得到了类似的认可。
本研究是同类研究中的首批研究之一，突出了评估个体治疗优先事项的重要性。
