Editor's Notes
- READ TITLE MOVE ON TO NEXT SLIDE
- This project was completed to introduce the topic of Internet-Based Intervention (IBI) to professionals who conduct support groups. The topic was introduced through an online course. Seven professionals were invited to take the online course and evaluate the learning process. The learning tool used for this project was a program called OpenLearning, a web-based program used to develop, conduct, and take online courses. This project focused only on the development of the course, with the objective to introduce the topic of Internet-Based Intervention. The training was delivered to educate on the topic of IBI and provided relevant examples for use. The course reviewed current trends related to therapy, and highlighted challenges that group facilitators face. The review of this material was given so facilitators could understand how utilization of internet-based techniques could increase the impact of support to group participants, while also helping the facilitator overcome common challenges encountered when managing a group.
- What The term “Internet-based interventions” or IBI are those tasks that are delivered via the Internet and performed through use of the computer (Andersson & Titov, 2014). IBI can take the form of interactive training, reminder messages, and access to the therapist via chat rooms and video conferencing (Kuester, Niemeyer & Knaevelsrud, 2016). Coaching, counseling, and social support may be made available through e-mails, chat rooms, or bulletin boards (Fielding et al., 2012). Benefits One of the benefits of IBI is that participants are not tied to seeing the therapist face to face (Kuester, Niemeyer & Knaevelsrud, 2016). Because they are not required to have a face to face interaction, online intervention provides the participant with easy access, the ability to remain anonymous, and are less threatening to the participant, which means having IBI as a form of support could help reach people who might otherwise not participate in therapy (Kuester, Niemeyer & Knaevelsrud, 2016). Some of these benefits can also transfer to the facilitator and assist in reducing challenges faced such as limited time to prepare and participant engagement (Wright et al., 2005). It may also benefit the participant who may have difficulty traveling to a group location because of financial distress or rural living (Taylor & Luce, 2016). Challenges Met The five common challenges facing facilitators include: developing and designing a specific framework, increasing involvement, limited preparation time to facilitate events, managing group dynamics, and maintaining interest and enthusiasm (The Institute of Cultural Affairs, 2013). Using an internet-based tool, such as video conferences with the facilitator or participant chat rooms, has been shown to provide greater access to treatment at a lower cost (Fielding et al., 2012).
- After the training, learners will: Define Clinical Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a type of therapeutic intervention. Define Internet-Based Intervention (IBI) as a type of therapeutic intervention. Identify the 5 most common challenges faced by group facilitators. By reviewing the material and completing the activities, learners will be able to work through the 5 common challenges to understand why facilitators face these challenges and how they may overcome them. Describe the needs of support group participants. MOVE TO NEXT SLIDE
- Pinpoint the needs of group participants as related to the challenges faced by facilitators. For example: learners may read about the challenge of getting regular participation and this may help them understand the need to have more immediate access to their support network. Recognize the dynamic of confidentiality as it relates to IBI. By sharing their own personal experience and reading others, learners will be able to consider what role confidentiality plays in a person's involvement with IBI. Create their own IBI. By utilizing the information shared throughout the course, learners will develop a unique IBI.
- This Literature Review is intended to present a synopsis of research articles related to the topic of Internet-Based Interventions (IBI) and their effectiveness when working with individuals that exhibit grief related to a significant incident in their lifetime. The articles range from current interventions in clinical practice, challenges faced by the group attendee and facilitator, benefits to potentially resolve challenges faced in the group setting, and current practices of IBI in the psychosocial arena. Current Interventions In order to show the benefits of internet interventions for therapy, it is important to understand the type of therapeutic treatment that is most commonly used. According to Spek et al. (2007), “cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is a widely used and effective form of therapy for a wide range of psychological disorders, including depression and anxiety disorders” (p. 319). However, while findings have demonstrated that internet-based CBT is positive for those in therapy, “there has been scant consideration of therapeutic process factors in the online setting” Benefits of Groups the benefits of group work include: increased critical thinking skills, promotion of learning and achievement, deeper learning is encouraged, transfer of previous knowledge as the student is also the teacher, fostering social skills and allowing the individual workload to be reduced. While a person may want to be engaged within the group environment, they may want to avoid the stigma associated with visiting a therapist (Spek et al., 2007). This is where the online environment can be supplemented as a form of support (Spek et al., 2007).
