Title: | A web-based psychoeducation program for people with pathological dissociation : development and pilot testing | Authors: | Fung, HW Chan, CT Ross, CA |
Issue Date: | 2020 | Source: | Journal of evidence-based social work, 2020, v. 17, no. 4, p. 427-442 | Abstract: | Purpose: Although people with pathological dissociation (PD) can benefit from specific interventions, there are challenges in providing suitable interventions for them in the field (e.g., high cost, lack of specialized services, stigma). Many people with PD cannot receive dissociation-focused services in their current service locations. It is important to develop easily-accessible interventions that can support people with PD, especially for those who cannot access dissociation-specific treatment. The authors developed a web-based psychoeducation program to support people with PD, and examined its feasibility and acceptability. Method: A single for m01-06 =m05-group pretest-posttest pilot study was conducted. Results: Findings showed that most of the intended psychosocial outcomes were achieved as planned, which initially proved the feasibility and acceptability of the program. Discussion: This is one of the first studies that reports the use of web-based interventions to support people with PD, especially those who are in the early stages of recovery. The findings suggest that information and communication technology can contribute to different aspects of clinical practice, including recruitment, engagement, assessment and interventions. Further discussion and research are required. |
