Abstract

Background: Hearing voices is a common experience in young people and can be associated with distress, self-harm, and an increased risk of attempting suicide. Many parents lack confidence in supporting young people who are distressed by voices. However, there are currently no evidence-based interventions to support the parents of young voice hearers.

Method: This was an uncontrolled study exploring the preliminary acceptability and outcomes of a psychoeducation workshop for the parents of young people experiencing distressing voices within a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) in the UK's National Health Service.

Results: A total of 21 parents consented to participate, 15 attended a workshop and 10 provided complete data sets. Five workshops were delivered across a seven-month period. Qualitative feedback was suggestive of acceptability and highlighted possible adaptations in relation to inclusivity, content focus and delivery format. Participants reported increased confidence and improved attitudes and beliefs towards voice hearing.

Conclusions: The findings from this study suggest that a psychoeducational workshop within a CAMHS context can be acceptable and helpful for parents of young people with distressing voice hearing experiences. Adaptations to the workshop are required to maximise inclusion, engagement, and outcomes.

为青少年语音倾听者的父母举办的心理教育研讨会：对国家医疗服务体系儿童和青少年心理健康服务的可接受性和成果的初步调查。

背景：听到声音是青少年的一种常见经历，可能与痛苦、自我伤害和试图自杀的风险增加有关。许多家长对支持因幻听而感到痛苦的青少年缺乏信心。然而，目前还没有基于证据的干预措施来支持青少年幻听者的父母：这是一项非对照研究，旨在探讨在英国国家卫生服务机构的儿童和青少年心理健康服务（CAMHS）中，为遭受痛苦声音困扰的青少年的父母举办心理教育研讨会的初步可接受性和结果：共有 21 位家长同意参加，15 位参加了研讨会，10 位提供了完整的数据集。在七个月的时间里，共举办了五次研讨会。定性反馈表明，研讨会具有可接受性，并强调了在包容性、内容重点和授课形式方面可能进行的调整。参加者表示增强了信心，改善了对语音听力的态度和信念：本研究的结果表明，在儿童心理、情感和健康服务（CAMHS）环境下举办的心理教育工作坊是可以接受的，而且对那些有听力困扰经历的青少年的家长也有帮助。需要对工作坊进行调整，以最大限度地提高融入度、参与度和成果。
