由于消费者对获取保健信息的需求日益增加以及电信服务在世界范围内的扩展，远程保健已成为专业心理学领域的一个新的实践领域。计划将电信技术（例如互联网和点对点视频会议）纳入其实践的心理学家应首先进行自我评估，然后提高他们使用这些替代服务形式的知识和技能。目前的文章提供了一个自学框架，被称为STEPS，供心理学家在规划远程医疗实践时使用。STEPS，重点关注远程医疗实践的5个关键领域，并围绕每个领域组织具体的自学问题。
Linked to increasing consumer demand for access to health care information and to the worldwide expansion of telecommunication services, telehealth has emerged as a new domain of practice within professional psychology. Psychologists who plan to incorporate telecommunication technologies (e.g., Internet and point-to-point videoconferencing) into their practices should first conduct a self-assessment and then enhance their knowledge and skills in using these alternative forms of service delivery. The current article provides a self-study framework, known as STEPS for psychologists to use in planning for telehealth practice. STEPS, focuses on 5 key domains of telehealth practice and organizes specific self-study questions around each of these domains.
