The Factors of the Psychotherapists' Attitude Towards Technology: Combining Attitudes Towards Technology and Technology Readiness Models
Objectives
The study aimed to explore psychotherapists' attitudes towards new technologies. Understanding the factors influencing their acceptance of technologies is essential to improving the accessibility, quality, and effectiveness of psychotherapeutic care in the digital age. Based on previous research from different fields (e.g., e-government and mobile applications), we integrated the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT-T) with the Technology Readiness Index (TRI). UTAUT-T focuses on one's perception of technology, while TRI emphasizes individual characteristics. Therefore, we regard psychotherapists' attitudes towards digital solutions by analysing factors related to technology and users (psychotherapists).
Methods
We conducted an online questionnaire study involving 391 psychotherapists aged 25–66 (M = 40.90; SD = 7.79). Participants completed self-report questionnaires: UTAUT-T, TRI 2.0, and a survey measuring technology usage at work.
Results
The model explained 30.2% of the variance in actual technology usage and 57.6% in behavioural intention. Both technology-related and therapist-related factors affect technology use. Some factors directly influence use behaviour (optimism, ease of use, convenience), while others are mediated by behavioural intention (pressure from others, professional support, therapy quality expectations).
Conclusions
Technology-related and therapist-related factors influence psychotherapists' use of technology. The study revealed that optimism plays a crucial role in addition to behavioural intention. This insight is vital for implementing new technologies in mental health services.
期刊介绍：
Clinical Psychology & Psychotherapy aims to keep clinical psychologists and psychotherapists up to date with new developments in their fields. The Journal will provide an integrative impetus both between theory and practice and between different orientations within clinical psychology and psychotherapy. Clinical Psychology & Psychotherapy will be a forum in which practitioners can present their wealth of expertise and innovations in order to make these available to a wider audience. Equally, the Journal will contain reports from researchers who want to address a larger clinical audience with clinically relevant issues and clinically valid research.
