Abstract: | The problem of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) continues as a serious public health issue in Taiwan. However, the current service delivery systems in Taiwan are fragmented and fraught with a variety of problems, similar to those reported in Western society. Because of the sensitive nature of CSA, the development of an internet information system may be helpful in treatment efforts. The Delphi method was used to collect data from 15 professionals in the field of CSA in order to assess the need for such an information system. The needed resources, limitations, and implications of the study are discussed. |
