Abstract
Digital health interventions can address governments' aims of providing better care, better outcomes, and lower costs. No previous research has examined attitudes toward digital sex therapy to understand what might facilitate, or hinder, the uptake of these interventions. This sequential mixed-methods study with qualitative structured interviews (n = 27) followed by a quantitative survey (n = 334) aimed to understand participants' expectations and attitudes toward digital sex therapy interventions. Participants reported a mixture of positive and negative attitudes to digital sex therapy. More positive attitudes, higher education level, and previous engagement in therapy predicted greater openness to using these interventions.
