“…Automated assessments are acceptable to individuals with mental health and substance abuse problems (Hile & Adkins, 1997). They are well liked in primary-care settings (Hausam, Rigdon, Anderson, Hill, Haas et al, 1998) and among ethnically diverse low-income patients in similar settings (Bock, Niaura, Fontes, & Bock, 1999).…”

“…These individuals spend about 2 hours completing the automated interview. ISAP (Initial Standardized Assessment Protocol) is a Windows based system for assessing individuals seeking publicly funded substance abuse services (Hile & Adkins, 1997). The client completed portion of ISAP took these individuals about 30 minutes to complete.…”

An automated screening system for substance abuse and mental health problems was developed and implemented in a rural primary care clinic. Eighty-nine patients were assessed with this system. The incidence of identified problems, 35% in total, was consistent with that found in previous studies of patients in general and medical settings. Additionally, over half of the patients assessed felt at least some need for mental health or substance abuse treatment. Nonetheless, because of the staff's concerns over patient privacy, impeding patient flow, and the physician's perceived ability to adequately identify these problems without assistance, the system was not adopted.

The World-Wide Web holds great promise as a mechanism for questionnaire-based research. But are data from Web-based questionnaires comparable to data from standard paper-and-pencil questionnaires? This study assessed the equivalence of the Ruminative Responses Scale in a Web-based format and in a paper-and-pencil format among introductory psychology, upper-level psychology, and non-psychology students. Internal consistency coefficients were comparable across the groups. The participants in the Web sample reported higher levels of self-focused rumination than did the other groups. Women in the Web sample reported more self-focused rumination than did women in the other groups. In the Web sample, results did not covary with access location. These results suggest that findings from Web-based questionnaire research are comparable with results obtained using standard procedures. The computerized Web interface may also facilitate self-disclosure among research participants.

Fifteen years ago we proposed that the diagnosis and treatment of sexual and other problems could be delivered in a professional and expert manner using personal computers. We programmed a sex-expert diagnostic and treatment system and tested it on several hundred individuals and couples in the laboratory, as well as on a pre-Internet regional computer network. Although the results of our studies were very encouraging, a lack of scientific interest at the time prevented further research being undertaken. Recently, the growth of the Internet has lead to the development and use of a number of online approaches to the delivery of psychotherapeutic services in general, and of some new approaches to sex therapy in particular. However, a number of scientific and professional issues need to be investigated if the public health potential of the provision of online psychotherapy services is to be realized. 617
