As gatekeepers, parents can improve the uptake of mental health services among youth. This article asked whether providing parents with a presentation on computer-based therapies is a feasible strategy to improve their knowledge, attitudes and uptake intentions.
Parents completed a survey before, and immediately after, viewing a presentation on computer-based therapies or an active control.
Parents who viewed the computer-based presentation reported significantly greater improvements in knowledge, perceived helpfulness, perceived benefits and intentions to access computer-based therapies; and a significantly greater reduction in perceived problems, compared to active controls.
Information- and demonstration-based presentations are a feasible method for improving attitudes towards computer-based therapies for youth among parents in the community.
作为把关人,父母可以提高青少年对心理健康服务的接受度。本文探讨了向父母提供关于基于计算机的疗法的介绍是否是一种可行的策略,以提高他们的知识、态度和接受意愿。
父母在观看关于基于计算机的疗法的介绍或积极对照之前和之后立即完成一项调查。
与积极对照相比,观看基于计算机的介绍的父母在知识、感知到的帮助性、感知到的益处以及使用基于计算机的疗法的意愿方面有显著更大的改善;在感知到的问题方面有显著更大的减少。
基于信息和演示的介绍是一种可行的方法,可以改善社区中父母对青少年基于计算机的疗法的态度。
