在卫生领域的定性和定量研究中使用互联网的优点和缺点在文献中很容易找到，但很少有人研究在开发和运行互联网为媒介的研究中要考虑的因素。对8个计算机化数据库（EBSCO、EMBASE、MedLine、Psyclnfo、CINAHL、PubMed、科克伦和TRIP）中索引的英文出版物进行了文献检索，对出版数据没有限制。关键词互联网，研究，质量，可信度，可靠性和有效性被用于所有可能的组合，并尽可能映射到标题。该搜索揭示了建立和开展互联网介导的研究的三个关键领域：解决抽样偏差，确保道德实践，并探索使用在线界面收集的数据的有效性。本文有助于质量标准的不断发展，在卫生领域的互联网为媒介的研究的行为和写了。(c)2007爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The advantages and disadvantages of using the Internet in both qualitative and quantitative researches in the field of health are readily available in the literature, but little examination has been made of the factors to be considered in developing and running Internet-mediated research. A bibliographic search of English language publications indexed in eight computerized databases (EBSCO, EMBASE, MedLine, Psyclnfo, CINAHL, PubMed, Cochrane, and TRIP) was undertaken with no limit set for the data of publication. The keywords Internet, research, quality, credibility, reliability, and validity were used in all possible combinations, and mappings to headings made wherever possible. The search revealed three key areas in setting up and undertaking Internet-mediated research: addressing sampling biases, ensuring ethical practice, and exploring the validity of data collected using an online interface. This paper contributes to the ongoing development of quality standards in the conduct and write-up of Internet-mediated research in the field of health. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
