Web-based, self-help intervention for Adjustment Disorders: acceptance and usability
Year: 2017
Type: article
Abstract: Despite having proved their efficacy, Internet-based interventions (IBI) have not yet been implemented in health care settings. The acceptability of these interventions may be one key barrier. The present work aims to assess the acceptability and usability of a Web-based self-help intervention (TAO) for Adjustment disorders (AD) among 7 patients with AD and 15 clinicians. The intervention was well accepted and described as user-friendly by both samples. Furthermore, results of this work suggest that certain aspects should be considered during the development of IBI in order to promote adherence and achieve the desired changes. To our knowledge, this is the first work to explore specific features of an IBI that might impact users' satisfaction and adherence.
