BACKGROUND
The development of technological applications within psychotherapy has opened up new opportunities for mental health professionals (MHPs) to address client need. Despite the clinical efficacy and utility of evidence-based electronic interventions, MHPs' engagement with these interventions remains poorly understood.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the current study was to develop and conduct a preliminary psychometric investigation of the measurement properties of the electronic-therapy attitudes and process questionnaire - therapist version (eTAP-T). Based upon the theory of planned behaviour (TPB), the eTAP-T measures factors related to MHPs' engagement with e-interventions for clients' mental health concerns.
METHODS
Participants were 222 practicing MHPs who reported being in direct contact with clients. Participants completed the eTAP-T and related measures with a subsample of 40 participants completing a two-week follow up questionnaire.
RESULTS
Exploratory factor analysis with item reduction resulted in a 12-item eTAP-T, with four factors accounting for 82% of variance. The four factors (subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, attitudes and intentions) were consistent with the four TPB domains. The eTAP-T demonstrated satisfactory validity and reliability as per the consensus-based standards for the selection of health measurement instruments.
CONCLUSIONS
The development and preliminary psychometric investigation supported the validity and reliability of the eTAP-T. Further research is required for confirmatory analyses. The eTAP-T may be useful in identifying the training needs of MHPs and evaluating training programs. Specific areas for intervention, such as attitudes or perceived credibility may be identified and targetted, with the measure then also used to evaluate change across these domains. It is anticipated that the eTAP-T may useful tool in improving uptake of digital interventions by MHPs.
背景
心理治疗中技术应用的发展为心理健康专业人员（MHPs）满足客户需求提供了新机会。尽管循证电子干预措施具有临床疗效和实用性，但MHPs对这些干预措施的参与情况仍知之甚少。
目的
本研究旨在开发并对电子治疗态度与过程问卷-治疗师版（eTAP-T）的测量属性进行初步心理测量学调查。基于计划行为理论（TPB），eTAP-T测量与MHPs参与针对客户心理健康问题的电子干预相关的因素。
方法
参与者为222名报告与客户有直接接触的执业MHPs。参与者完成了eTAP-T及相关测量，其中40名参与者的子样本完成了为期两周的随访问卷。
结果
进行项目缩减的探索性因素分析得出了一个包含12个条目的eTAP-T，四个因素解释了82%的方差。这四个因素（主观规范、感知行为控制、态度和意图）与TPB的四个领域一致。根据基于共识的健康测量工具选择标准，eTAP-T显示出令人满意的效度和信度。
结论
本研究的开发和初步心理测量学调查支持了eTAP-T的效度和信度。需要进一步研究进行验证性分析。eTAP-T可能有助于确定MHPs的培训需求并评估培训项目。可以确定并针对特定的干预领域，如态度或感知可信度，然后使用该测量工具评估这些领域的变化。预计eTAP-T可能是提高MHPs对数字干预措施接受度的有用工具。
