Telemental health: Reflections on how to move the field forward.

Mohr, David C.·2009·Clinical Psychology: Science and Practice

Abstract

Richardson, Frueh, Grubaugh, Egede, and Elhai (2009) review recent literature on providing mental health care via videoconferencing. Videoconferencing is one of a growing number of telecommunications technologies used to provide telemental health care. This commentary places videoconferencing in the broader field of telemental health care and discusses some of the areas that are crucial to the advancement of the field. To this end, the assumption that telemental health intervention improves access to care is explored. The notion that different telemental health telecommunications media, including the telephone and Internet, may have different benefits and disadvantages with respect to both efficacy and access is discussed. Existing and emerging telecommunications technologies not only allow us to extend access to mental health care, but they also provide opportunities to develop fundamentally new treatment paradigms. To support this development, we are in need of new theories and conceptual frameworks that can promote the development and evaluation of new telemental health interventions.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • A single 50-minute mental health consultation can be replaced by two or three shorter interviews using telemedicine.

    “For example, while the basic mental health consultation is an interview between clinician and patient, the ease of access provided by telemedicine can allow a single 50-minute consultation to be replaced by two or three shorter interviews [20].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
