The objective of this review is to evaluate the effectiveness of internet-based psychosocial interventions versus active comparators (such as in-person interventions, bibliotherapy, or telephone interventions) and passive comparators (such as usual psychiatric care) on psychological distress, expressed emotion, and knowledge about psychosis in family caregivers of people with schizophrenia.
Family caregivers of individuals with schizophrenia are at increased risk of developing mental disorders. Despite the widespread dissemination of reliable guidelines for caring for people with schizophrenia and their family caregivers, these have been poorly implemented. Hence, internet-based interventions with caregivers of people with schizophrenia could be an effective and feasible option.
This review will include studies focusing on the family caregivers of individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia. Internet-based psychosocial interventions will be defined as any psychosocial intervention that is internet-based compared with active comparators (such as in-person interventions, bibliotherapy, or telephone interventions) and passive comparators (such as usual psychiatric care). The primary outcomes of this review will include psychological distress, expressed emotion, and knowledge about the psychosis of family caregivers of people with schizophrenia. The secondary outcome will be the hospitalization of people with schizophrenia.
MEDLINE (PubMed), CINAHL (Ovid), Scopus, Cochrane Library, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses will be systematically searched for published and unpublished studies from 2010 in English and Thai. Two reviewers will select studies, critically appraise them, and perform data extraction independently. Finally, when possible, the studies will be pooled through statistical meta-analysis and grading of the certainty of evidence by each outcome.

本综述的目的是评估基于互联网的心理社会干预措施与积极对照措施（如面对面干预、阅读疗法或电话干预）以及消极对照措施（如常规精神科护理）相比，对精神分裂症患者家庭照顾者的心理困扰、情感表达和精神病知识的有效性。
精神分裂症患者的家庭照顾者患精神障碍的风险增加。尽管关于照顾精神分裂症患者及其家庭照顾者的可靠指南已广泛传播，但这些指南的实施情况不佳。因此，针对精神分裂症患者照顾者的基于互联网的干预措施可能是一种有效且可行的选择。
本综述将纳入关注被诊断为精神分裂症患者家庭照顾者的研究。基于互联网的心理社会干预措施将被定义为任何基于互联网的心理社会干预措施，与积极对照措施（如面对面干预、阅读疗法或电话干预）和消极对照措施（如常规精神科护理）相比。本综述的主要结局将包括精神分裂症患者家庭照顾者的心理困扰、情感表达和精神病知识。次要结局将是精神分裂症患者的住院情况。
将系统检索MEDLINE（PubMed）、CINAHL（Ovid）、Scopus、Cochrane图书馆以及ProQuest学位论文数据库，以查找2010年以来以英文和泰文发表及未发表的研究。两名评审员将独立选择研究、进行严格评价并提取数据。最后，如有可能，将通过统计元分析对研究进行汇总，并对每个结局的证据确定性进行分级。
