Limited empirical information on factors impacting the implementation of mental health services in jail may be contributing to low treatment rates. We documented potential barriers impacting the provision of a brief cognitive-behavioral group-based intervention for people with serious mental illness in jail, including the rates of participants' recruitment, as well as starting and completing the intervention; time required for each group from recruitment to completion; and the types and frequencies of obstacles encountered during treatment sessions. We organized the barriers according to the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research. All potential treatment recipients' questions prior to treatment, and reasons provided for not starting the treatment, were also logged and analyzed using content analysis and frequency counts; tables of the themes, frequencies, and examples of participant concerns are presented. These results suggest that although many participants were interested in and incarcerated for sufficient time to complete the intervention, relatively few participants were able to begin the groups (44%). Over 150 obstacles to treatment were encountered during treatment provision (including recurring issues with client transportation within the facility and facility lockdown). Understanding participants' progression through the study (recruitment, start, completion), their questions and reasons for not participating, and interruptions to the sessions provide important information for increasing the usability of mental health care in jails. The current findings can improve the implementation of needed evidence-based treatment in this carceral setting.

CSC involves broad multidisciplinary support for participants, including from psychologists in some CSC teams, encompassing educational and vocational support, medication management, psychotherapy, case management, peer support, and family interventions. CSC programs have proliferated in the last 20 years, leading to a quality-access dialectic, where increasing access to treatment simultaneously prompts concerns about care quality, particularly in the context of staffing shortages and funding limits. Evidence-based psychosocial treatment, including psychotherapy, is an integral part of CSC, yet workforce training deficits, workforce turnover, and CSC financing pose threats to intervention fidelity and thus CSC participants' ability to access high-quality care. We propose an enhanced role for psychologists as a way of resolving the quality-access dialectic in the area of psychosocial treatment, specifically evidence-based therapy. We describe the potential of psychologists' skills in clinical supervision, formulation, evidence-based interventions and measurement-based care, drawing on practice examples. After considering possible limitations, we outline implementation models, for example, drawing on Early Psychosis Intervention Network and Project Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes. We conclude with four recommendations: Psychologists should be placed in CSC team or network-leadership roles; psychological expertise should be made available to CSC teams for training, consultation, and technical assistance; psychological expertise should be used to address CSC implementation challenges; and research is needed to demonstrate psychologists' value to stakeholders.

We examined whether it also predicts subsequent IPV or other aggression. We conducted a secondary analysis of self-reports by 1,039 women and 509 men who participated in the first two waves of the Interpersonal Conflict and Resolution Study (Mumford et al., 2019). We defined coercive control as any reported perpetration at Wave 1 of threat to physically harm, threat to use information to control, or put down or disrespect their partner. The participants also reported perpetration of verbal abuse and physical or sexual aggression against intimate partners. We tested correlations of these behaviors with similar acts toward nonintimates (friends or unfamiliar persons) in Wave 1 and the prediction of physical violence in Wave 2, approximately 5 months later. Coercive control (14% of men, 26% of women) was correlated with physical or sexual IPV (8% of men, 15% of women) in both women and men and with physical violence and coercive control to nonintimates. In logistic regressions entering Wave 1 physical IPV on the first step, Wave 1 coercive control was a significant independent predictor of Wave 2 physical IPV overall, and for men but not women. Coercive control did not independently predict nonintimate physical violence. Coercive control toward an intimate partner is a unique predictor of physical IPV among men. Future research should use improved measures of coercive control and further examine coercive control as an indicator of general antisociality.

A systematic search of Pubmed, APA PsycInfo, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was conducted to identify studies examining MH stigma trainings implemented within the LEO profession. Both randomized and nonrandomized studies were considered. Risk of bias was assessed via the Cochrane Risk-of-Bias tool for randomized trials and the Risk of Bias in Non-Randomized Study of Intervention (Version 2). The present review identified 18 studies comprised of 2,399 participants (<i>M</i>_age = 37.37, <i>SD</i> = 4.76). Samples were predominantly composed of police officers (<i>k</i> = 16), followed by correctional officers (<i>k</i> = 2) and both (<i>k</i> = 1). Although the review aimed to investigate trainings targeting institutional, public, and self-stigma, all studies implemented trainings intended to decrease public stigma. Outcomes evaluated across studies included attitudes toward MH, knowledge about MH, self-efficacy/confidence, behavioral responses/de-escalation skills, social distance, and awareness, support, and utilization of MH resources. Although the outcomes evaluated were somewhat consistent across studies, there was variability in how variables were defined and measured. Due to this, data could not be compared across studies, and thus, conclusions could not be drawn regarding which trainings demonstrated the most effectiveness in reducing MH. Despite the increased research investigating the outcomes of trainings on stigma within the LEO population, the variability in methodology and the high rate of bias exhibited across studies suggest that more rigorous and better quality evaluations are warranted.

Thirty-six veterans participated in individual qualitative interviews about their beliefs about the efficacy and purpose of mental health care; their perceptions of societal attitudes regarding mental health; and their experiences accessing mental health care. Based on their level of treatment engagement in the last year, veterans were classified as either engaged in psychosocial mental health services (<i>n</i> = 15), engaged in psychiatric medication management only (<i>n</i> = 14), or not engaged in VA mental health services (<i>n</i> = 7). Attitudes associated with level of service usage were examined to identify factors that might improve engagement in treatment and quality of mental health services. Results suggest that provider expertise and rapport were critical to engagement. Our findings also suggest that barriers to accessing care included beliefs about when it was appropriate to request services, stigmatizing attitudes within one's social network, the complexity of the mental health system, and failures of providers and the treatment system to address the needs of a diverse patient population.

One hundred sixty-six veterans completed a baseline assessment as part of a clinical trial. Measures included a closed- and open-ended treatment preference questionnaire, as well as demographics, clinical symptoms, functioning, and relational measures, such as relationship satisfaction. Descriptive statistics and correlations examined factors associated with preference. An open-ended question querying veterans' reasons for their preferred modality was coded to identify themes. Though veterans as a group had no clear modality preference (51% preferring home-based telehealth and 49% preferring in-person treatment), veterans consistently expressed high levels of preference strength in the modality they chose. The presence of children in the home was associated with stronger preference for home-based telehealth. Veterans who preferred in-person care found it to be more credible and had more positive treatment expectancies. Veterans who preferred home-based telehealth believed it was flexible and increased access to care. For both preference groups, veterans' preferred modality was viewed as facilitating interpersonal relations and being more comfortable than the alternative modality. Veterans expressed strong preference for receiving their desired treatment modality for couples-based PTSD treatment.

We used the theory of planned behavior to analyze factors that affected enrollment decisions. Results revealed that enrollment decisions among incarcerated women can be categorized within the theory of planned behavior framework. Interview responses indicated that recognizing current problems as related to experiences of SVV, holding positive attitudes about mental health treatment, observing peers engaging in help-seeking behaviors, and perceiving treatment as accessible were linked with enrollment. Negative perceptions of treatment, fear of judgment, and negative peer influence (e.g., distrust of peers) were linked to decisions not to enroll. While certain beliefs were influenced by contextual features of incarceration (e.g., peer interactions outside of group therapy), many overlapped with factors found to influence help-seeking among nonincarcerated populations.
