在惩教中，人员配备的限制使不堪重负的精神健康系统负担过重，远程健康是一种越来越常见的精神健康服务提供模式。虽然远程健康是一种有效的治疗模式，适用于各种精神健康服务，但必须研究这种模式如何影响治疗体验的关键要素。在这项研究中，作者比较了囚犯对工作联盟的感知、会后情绪以及对通过两种不同方式提供的精神和心理健康服务的满意度：远程健康和面对面。参与者包括186名接受精神健康服务的囚犯(36人接受心理心理治疗，50人接受面对面心理治疗，50人接受精神心理治疗，50人接受面对面精神病学治疗)。结果显示，当比较每种心理健康服务的远程健康和面对面模式时，囚犯对与心理健康专业人员的工作联盟的感知、会后情绪或对服务的总体满意度没有显著差异。提出了这些发现的含义。
In corrections, where staffing limitations tax an overburdened mental health system, telemental health is an increasingly common mode of mental health service delivery. Although telemental health presents an efficient treatment modality for a spectrum of mental health services, it is imperative to study how this modality influences key elements of the treatment experience. In this study, the authors compared inmates' perceptions of the working alliance, postsession mood, and satisfaction with psychiatric and psychological mental health services delivered through 2 different modalities: telemental health and face-to-face. Participants consisted of 186 inmates who received mental health services (36 via telepsychology, 50 via face-to-face psychology, 50 via telepsychiatry, and 50 via face-to-face psychiatry). Results indicate no significant differences in inmates' perceptions of the work alliance with the mental health professional, postsession mood, or overall satisfaction with services when telemental health and face-to-face modalities were compared within each type of mental health service. Implications of these findings are presented.
