The Internet can be a valuable tool for clinical psychiatric research, enabling the recruitment of participants for studies on depersonalization disorder. Online recruitment showed similar demographics but less depression compared to clinic-based recruitment.

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Internet Research

Background:

  • Depersonalization disorder is a complex psychiatric condition.
  • Traditional clinical research recruitment methods can be time-consuming and resource-intensive.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the feasibility of using the Internet for clinical research in depersonalization disorder.
  • To compare participant characteristics recruited online versus through traditional clinical settings.

Main Methods:

  • Comparison of psychometric and demographic variables between two groups of depersonalization disorder patients: one recruited online, the other from a clinical unit.
  • Analysis of data from an online depersonalization bulletin board to gather information on symptoms, triggers, and treatments.

Main Results:

  • No significant differences in demographics or depersonalization features were found between online and clinic-recruited groups.
  • Patients recruited from the clinic reported significantly higher levels of depression.
  • Online bulletin board data provided valuable insights into symptoms, precipitants, and treatment of depersonalization disorder.

Conclusions:

  • The Internet is a viable and potentially valuable tool for clinical psychiatric research, particularly for recruiting specific patient populations.
  • Online recruitment may yield different participant profiles (e.g., lower depression rates) compared to traditional methods.
  • Internet-based platforms can facilitate the collection of rich qualitative data on psychiatric conditions.
