Childhood mental health issues concern a large amount of children worldwide and represent a major public health challenge. The lack of knowledge among parents and caregivers in this area hinders effective management. Empowering families enhances their ability to address their children's difficulties, boosts health literacy, and promotes positive changes. However, seeking reliable mental health information remains challenging due to fear, stigma, and mistrust of the sources of information.
This study evaluates the acceptance of a website, CléPsy, designed to provide reliable information and practical tools for families concerned about child mental health and parenting.
This study examines user characteristics and assesses ease of use, usefulness, trustworthiness, and attitude toward using the website. Platform users were given access to a self-administered questionnaire by means of mailing lists, social networks, and posters between May and July 2022.
Findings indicate that the wide majority of the 317 responders agreed or somewhat agreed that the website made discussions about mental health easier with professionals (n=264, 83.3%) or with their relatives (n=260, 82.1%). According to the ANOVA, there was a significant effect between educational level and perceived trust (F6=3.03; P=.007) and between frequency of use and perceived usefulness (F2=4.85; P=.008).
The study underlines the importance of user experience and design in web-based health information dissemination and emphasizes the need for accessible and evidence-based information. Although the study has limitations, it provides preliminary support for the acceptability and usefulness of the website. Future efforts should focus on inclusive co-construction with users and addressing the information needs of families from diverse cultural and educational backgrounds.
儿童心理健康问题困扰着全球大量儿童，是一项重大的公共卫生挑战。家长和照料者在这方面缺乏知识，阻碍了有效管理。增强家庭权能可提高其应对子女困难的能力，提升健康素养，并促进积极变化。然而，由于对信息来源的恐惧、污名化和不信任，获取可靠的心理健康信息仍然具有挑战性。
本研究评估一个名为CléPsy的网站的接受度，该网站旨在为关注儿童心理健康和育儿的家庭提供可靠信息和实用工具。
本研究调查用户特征，并评估网站的易用性、实用性、可信度以及使用态度。2022年5月至7月期间，通过邮件列表、社交网络和海报，让平台用户能够访问一份自填式问卷。
结果表明，在317名受访者中，绝大多数人同意或 somewhat同意该网站使与专业人士（n = 264，83.3%）或亲属（n = 260，82.1%）讨论心理健康变得更容易。根据方差分析，教育水平与感知信任之间（F6 = 3.03；P = .007）以及使用频率与感知实用性之间（F2 = 4.85；P = .008）存在显著影响。
该研究强调了用户体验和设计在基于网络的健康信息传播中的重要性，并强调了获取可及且基于证据的信息的必要性。尽管该研究存在局限性，但它为该网站的可接受性和实用性提供了初步支持。未来的工作应侧重于与用户进行包容性的共同建设，并满足来自不同文化和教育背景家庭的信息需求。
