Exploring subgroups of acceptance prediction for e-mental health among psychotherapists-in-training: a latent class analysis.

Theoretical Background: Research of E-Mental Health (EMH) interventions remains a much-studied topic, as does its acceptance in different professional groups as psychotherapists-in-training (PiT). Acceptance among clinicians may vary and depend on several factors, including the characteristics of different EMH services and applications. Therefore, the aims of this study were to investigate the factors that predict acceptance of EMH among a sample of PiT using a latent class analysis.

Innovative moments in low-intensity, telephone-based cognitive-behavioral therapy for depression.

Background: Innovative moments (IMs), defined as moments in psychotherapy when patients' problematic patterns change toward more elaborated and adaptive patterns, have been shown to be associated with a clinical change in patients with depression. Thus, far IMs have been studied in face-to-face settings but not in telephone-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (t-CBT). This study investigates whether IMs occur in t-CBT and examines the association between IMs and symptom improvement, and reconceptualization and symptom improvement.

Acceptance of E-mental health interventions and its determinants among psychotherapists-in-training during the first phase of COVID-19.

Background: Although E-mental health (EMH) interventions have been shown to be effective in the treatment of mental health problems and empirical knowledge regarding EMH acceptance for different occupations in health care is established, little is known regarding EMH and psychotherapists-in-training. This seems particularly relevant as psychotherapists-in-training will shape the future health care system since they are as being the next generation of psychotherapists. With social distancing measures in place, COVID-19 has led to an increased demand for EMH, which is broadening the way psychological treatments are delivered.

Acceptance of E-Mental Health Services for Different Application Purposes Among Psychotherapists in Clinical Training in Germany and Switzerland: Secondary Analysis of a Cross-Sectional Survey.

Background: Despite solid evidence supporting the efficacy of electronic mental health (EMH) services, their acceptance among psychotherapists is limited and uptake rates remain low. However, the acceptance of different EMH services has yet barely been examined in future generations of psychotherapists in a differentiated manner. The aims of this study were (1) to elaborate the intention to use various EMH services for different application purposes and (2) to determine predictors of EMH service acceptance among psychotherapists in clinical training (PiT).
