Abstract

PURPOSE

To investigate the attitudes toward and knowledge of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) among mental health practitioners.

DESIGN AND METHODS

One hundred and eighty-three participants from five groups of mental health practitioners were included. Anonymous questionnaires were used.

FINDINGS

Data were analyzed using SPSS version 24.0. Most of the questionnaires were completed by nurses (N = 142; 77.5%). Mean positive attitude scores were statistically different between the five groups, F(4, 178) = 2.63, P = 0.036). Mean knowledge scores between the five groups were statistically significant, H(4) = 30.0, P < 0.0001. Greater knowledge about ECT was associated with more positive attitude toward ECT, r(183) = 0.290, P = 0.01.

PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS

ECT educational programs need to be provided to all mental health practitioners and the resulting effects on knowledge and attitudes studied.

摘要

目的

调查心理健康从业者对电休克治疗（ECT）的态度和知识。

设计与方法

纳入来自五组心理健康从业者的183名参与者。使用匿名问卷。

结果

使用SPSS 24.0版对数据进行分析。大多数问卷由护士完成（N = 142；77.5%）。五组之间的平均积极态度得分在统计学上存在差异，F(4, 178) = 2.63，P = 0.036）。五组之间的平均知识得分在统计学上具有显著性，H(4) = 30.0，P < 0.0001。对ECT的更多了解与对ECT更积极的态度相关，r(183) = 0.290，P = 0.01。
