Abstract

Mental health care in many low to middle-income countries like South Africa is often under resourced. Many individuals in these countries have access to the internet and often use this as a first source to search for information. Hence the possibility for online screening of mental health holds the promise of early detection and intervention. However, there are no clear guidelines for the ethics of online screening for mental health. This study aims to explore the literature in an attempt to explore existing guidelines on online screening with a view to formulating recommendations for a more universally applicable standard for online screening of mental health. A systematic review method was used to explore the literature. Articles were obtained from six electronic databases from 1970 to 2019. Through the use of the PRISMA method 12 articles met the inclusion criteria. There was only one article that made specific reference to ethical considerations regarding online screening instruments, whilst the remaining 11 made reference to some pertinent ethical considerations for online screening of mental health. Using a thematic analysis, six core themes were identified across the articles which covered online screening, namely modes of tests, psychometric properties of the tool, issues of consent, accuracy of results, feedback and test security. These were aspects that needed to be addressed over those already in place for pen-and-paper screening tools. The results are used to provide recommendations for ethical guidelines for the online screening of mental health.

南非心理健康在线筛查的伦理:系统评价

摘要

在南非等许多中低收入国家,精神卫生保健往往资源不足。这些国家/地区的许多人都可以访问互联网,并经常将其用作搜索信息的第一来源。因此,在线筛查心理健康的可能性有望实现早期发现和干预。但是,对于在线筛查心理健康的伦理没有明确的指导方针。本研究旨在探索文献,试图探索现有的在线筛查指南,以期为更普遍适用的心理健康在线筛查标准制定建议。采用系统评价方法对文献进行探索。文章从 1970 年到 2019 年的六个电子数据库中获得。通过使用 PRISMA 方法,12 篇文章符合纳入标准。只有一篇文章具体提到了有关在线筛查工具的伦理考虑,而其余 11 篇则提到了在线筛查心理健康的一些相关伦理考虑。通过主题分析,在涵盖在线筛查的文章中确定了六个核心主题,即测试模式、工具的心理测量特性、同意问题、结果的准确性、反馈和测试安全。这些是需要解决的问题,而不是已经存在的纸笔筛选工具。结果用于为在线心理健康筛查的伦理指南提供建议。只有一篇文章具体提到了有关在线筛查工具的伦理考虑,而其余 11 篇则提到了在线筛查心理健康的一些相关伦理考虑。通过主题分析,在涵盖在线筛查的文章中确定了六个核心主题,即测试模式、工具的心理测量特性、同意问题、结果的准确性、反馈和测试安全。这些是需要解决的问题,而不是已经存在的纸笔筛选工具。结果用于为在线心理健康筛查的伦理指南提供建议。只有一篇文章具体提到了有关在线筛查工具的伦理考虑,而其余 11 篇则提到了在线筛查心理健康的一些相关伦理考虑。通过主题分析,在涵盖在线筛查的文章中确定了六个核心主题,即测试模式、工具的心理测量特性、同意问题、结果的准确性、反馈和测试安全。这些是需要解决的问题,而不是已经存在的纸笔筛选工具。结果用于为在线心理健康筛查的伦理指南提供建议。而其余的 11 则提到了在线筛查心理健康的一些相关伦理考虑。通过主题分析,在涵盖在线筛查的文章中确定了六个核心主题,即测试模式、工具的心理测量特性、同意问题、结果的准确性、反馈和测试安全。这些是需要解决的问题,而不是已经存在的纸笔筛选工具。结果用于为在线心理健康筛查的伦理指南提供建议。而其余的 11 则提到了在线筛查心理健康的一些相关伦理考虑。通过主题分析,在涵盖在线筛查的文章中确定了六个核心主题,即测试模式、工具的心理测量特性、同意问题、结果的准确性、反馈和测试安全。这些是需要解决的问题,而不是已经存在的纸笔筛选工具。结果用于为在线心理健康筛查的伦理指南提供建议。这些是需要解决的问题,而不是已经存在的纸笔筛选工具。结果用于为在线心理健康筛查的伦理指南提供建议。这些是需要解决的问题,而不是已经存在的纸笔筛选工具。结果用于为在线心理健康筛查的伦理指南提供建议。
