Abstract The authors evaluated websites offering therapeutic telehealth services (N = 55) using a 38-item checklist based on the American Psychological Association’s Guidelines for the Practice of Telepsychology (APA Guidelines) to determine the extent that online service providers included such information on their websites. On average, the websites reviewed addressed only 39% of the checklist criteria. These findings are disconcerting and suggest most providers’ websites do not include information that would help potential clients make informed decisions about online treatment. The authors urge more providers to consider offering telehealth services to increase the supply of qualified providers in response to growing consumer demand.

评估远程医疗网站的信息是否符合APA远程心理学指南

摘要作者根据美国心理学会的《远程心理实践指南》（APA指南）中的38项清单，对提供治疗性远程医疗服务（N = 55）的网站进行了评估，以确定在线服务提供商在其网站上包含此类信息的程度。平均而言，所审查的网站仅满足清单标准的39％。这些发现令人不安，表明大多数提供商的网站不包含有助于潜在客户就在线治疗做出明智决定的信息。作者敦促更多提供商考虑响应不断增长的消费者需求，提供远程医疗服务，以增加合格提供商的供应。
