![Page 9: 2.7.5 dr cameryn garrett](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052602/55a0d0701a28ab4c108b45a6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What is Different about an Online Consultation?
–Joshua Meyrowitz’s (1985) theory on electronic media and social behaviour –Danah Boyd (2008) her theory on networked publics (i.e. social network sites)
![Page 10: 2.7.5 dr cameryn garrett](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052602/55a0d0701a28ab4c108b45a6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Joshua Meyrowitz (1985)
• Audience is altered in an electronic environment• Information and performances that were once
limited to one social situation can now be broadcast to multiple environments
• People can’t deny the event occurred

Danah Boyd (2008)Attributes of digital information:• Persistence: content automatically
recorded and archived• Replicability: content can be duplicated• Scalability: potential visibility of content is
great• Searchability: content can be accessed
through search

• Why Were Women Less Willing?
– Gendered experiences of online spaces and technology
![Page 13: 2.7.5 dr cameryn garrett](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052602/55a0d0701a28ab4c108b45a6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Gendered Experiences of Online Spaces and Technology
• Women more likely than men to experience sexual harassment online
• Young Australian women assess webcams as high-risk activity (Australian Communication and Media Authority, 2009)
• Damage to a reputation following sexting

How to Increase the Acceptability of Online Sexual Health Consultations?
1) Clinics should have comprehensive privacy and security policies. 2) Ensure patients are aware of these policies3) Follow-up consultations
![Page 16: 2.7.5 dr cameryn garrett](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052602/55a0d0701a28ab4c108b45a6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
In Conclusion1) Attributes of digital information need to be
considered when planning to implement an online service
2) Patients’ privacy and security concerns about online consultations need to be addressed
3) Despite young peoples’ frequent use of online communication they may still prefer to consult a healthcare provider in person
