abstract: 'Background. Transnational migrant populations face critical barriers to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mental health service utilization that perpetuate mental health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disparities globally. Overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) number over 2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
million globally and 25\% are female domestic workers. Structural
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
barriers prevent equitable access to mental health services for this
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
population. Electronic mental health (eMental Health) intervention is a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
scalable alternative to face-to-face treatment. The current study sought
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to identify key correlates of intention to use eMental Health within a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
community of female Filipino domestic workers living and working in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Macao (SAR), China.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Methods. Respondent-driven sampling implemented at a community field
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
site was used to reach a sample of 1364 female domestic workers. A
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
multivariable adjusted partial proportional-odds (PPO) model was used to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
assess relevant correlates of intent to use eMental Health.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results. The majority (62.8\%) reported being likely to utilize eMental
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Health. The adjusted PPO model showed that younger age (18-25, 26-35,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
36-45 v. over 55), longer time as an OFW, being likely (v. neutral and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unlikely) to seek professional services, willingness to pay for services
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(v. not), belief that mental health services are a priority (v. low
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
priority), having access to Wi-Fi outside the employer''s home (v. not),
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and higher levels of social support were associated with increased odds
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of intent to use eMental Health.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusions. eMental Health is a promising intervention with high
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
potential for uptake among OFWs. The majority of the study population
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
owned a smartphone and were able to connect to the Internet or Wi-Fi.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Future work will rigorously evaluate eMental Health programs for use
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
among OFWs.'
