Urban spaces and places have been the focus of research by many disciplines, including epidemiology, sociology, anthropology, and urban studies. In this chapter, the authors outline the importance and the role of culture in urban mental health employing various historical, sociological, and epidemiological contexts. The authors point out that modern multicultural approaches in viewing the metropolis can be conceptualized as a global hub of migration. This therefore becomes a place where individuals encounter the other and various boundaries between spaces and residence, and between wellness and illness, intersect. Acculturation to the urban places may take some time and the authors propose that the psychological process of acculturation is a useful beginning in terms of unpicking and understanding the phenomenology of identity formation and cross-cultural contact. The chapter traces the historical development of the city in parallel to the literature on psychosis and the city in developed and developing contexts, before critically examining the role of culture in informing our explanatory and interpretive frameworks of psychosis epidemiology.","PeriodicalId":434072,"journal":{"name":"Urban Mental Health (Oxford Cultural Psychiatry series)","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121303051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Long-term studies that enable researchers and clinicians to look at aetiological factors that may affect development are required. The chapter investigates what has changed in the reporting of behavioural symptoms and syndromes in children living in Mexico City. Across all age groups, nervousness, restlessness, inattentiveness, irritability, and explosiveness have significantly increased. The relationship between the environment and psychological symptoms is of interest, especially in preschool children who are likely to be irritable. Depressive syndrome with both irritable and depressed mood as core symptoms show an increasing prevalence from preschool age to late childhood; depressive syndrome with only one core symptom, predominantly irritable mood, shows a consistent increase across all age groups. Explosiveness, possibly associated with brain damage, has significantly increased, most notably in older school-age children. This raises significant questions about the environment.","PeriodicalId":434072,"journal":{"name":"Urban Mental Health (Oxford Cultural Psychiatry series)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128643565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
