Abstract
- The adoption of e-mental health strategies is determined by the acceptability of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to professionals, an issue barely explored in Mexico. The objective was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Acceptability of ICT Use for Mental Health Care Questionnaire. A convenience sample of 492 Mexican mental health professionals answered the questionnaire on ICT use for mental health care. Internal consistency analyses, exploratory, and confirmatory factor analyses were performed. Around 73.4% of the sample are women, aged between 21 and 30 (32.1%), around 50% has completed graduate studies, and 88.3% is practicing psychologists. The questionnaire comprised 11 items grouped into three factors: perceived usefulness, risk perception, and subjective norm. The CFA indicated a good fit χ2 SB/gl = 443.38/206 = 2.15; CFI = 0.930; RMSEA = 0.068 (95% CI [0.059–0.077]). The instrument has adequate psychometric properties for evaluating the acceptability of ICT use for mental health care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
