Several Israeli laws require therapists to violate confidentiality. Psychiatrists, clinical psychologists and social workers were asked about their decisions to break confidentiality concerning information revealed in psychotherapy. No differences were found in confidentiality between private practice and public services. No differences were found between the three professional groups. Many therapists claim they do not report sensitive information revealed in psychotherapy, and prefer dealing with the information in therapy. Therapists were less inclined to break confidentiality about past (as opposed to present) sexual abuse. Therapists were less inclined to break confidentiality when sexual abuse was revealed in psychotherapy by the abuser than when revealed by the victim.
以色列的几项法律要求治疗师违反保密原则。研究人员询问了精神科医生、临床心理学家和社会工作者关于他们在心理治疗中所获信息打破保密原则的决定。私人执业和公共服务在保密方面没有发现差异。这三个专业群体之间也没有发现差异。许多治疗师声称他们不会报告心理治疗中透露的敏感信息,而是倾向于在治疗中处理这些信息。治疗师不太倾向于泄露过去(相对于现在)性虐待的保密信息。当性虐待是由施虐者在心理治疗中透露时,治疗师比当由受害者透露时更不愿意打破保密原则。
