Anyone 18-years-old and over was eligible to participate. Knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviour were evaluated using the Mental Health Knowledge Scale, Attitudes to Mental Illness Scale, Perceived Devaluation and Discrimination Scale, and Reported and Intended Behaviour Scale. Multiple regressions explored their associations with demographic characteristics.Results: Participants (N = 1413; over 50% 18-24-year-olds; 77% female; 80% White ethnicity; 70% university-educated) lacked direct familiarity with these conditions and their knowledge varied. Attitudes and behaviour were generally positive, open-minded, and unprejudiced. A minority reported stigmatising views, which were associated with minoritised ethnicities and lower education and familiarity. Most participants believed the public would find it unacceptable that people with these conditions would work in childcare or certain professional roles.Conclusions: Anti-stigma organisations could tailor campaigns regarding severe mental health conditions to focus on these demographic groups. However, aspects of the demographic characteristics of the sample may bias the findings and limit their generalisability. Larger, more representative surveys will strengthen these findings.","PeriodicalId":48135,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-12"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148296834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many individuals do not meet criteria for a mental disorder, yet psychotropic medication is often the first-line response. Group-based psychological interventions have emerged as alternatives for reducing emotional distress, but their effectiveness in non-clinical populations remains unclear.Objectives: This systematic review examines the effectiveness of group-based interventions in reducing emotional distress among non-clinical adults.Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted across major databases from January 2013 to March 2025. Eligible studies included interventions targeting adults with non-clinical distress. Studies were excluded if participants had a diagnosed mental disorder or if the absence of diagnosis was unclear.Results: A total of 4,942 records were identified (3,980 through database searching and 962 through backward citation tracking), including 20 studies. Most interventions produced significant improvements. Mindfulness-based approaches were most frequent, either alone or integrated with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). Relaxation techniques also showed independent benefits.Discussion: Most interventions were psychoeducational, with mindfulness most widely applied. No significant differences were observed between intervention types. Findings highlight the potential of diverse psychological strategies to improve well-being in non-clinical adults, while stressing the need for further evaluation.","PeriodicalId":48135,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"375-392"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147628617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Narrative synthesis, alongside meta-analysis, was applied to explore the number and nature of classes, their associations with study characteristics and predictors of trajectory class membership.

Responding and non-improving classes prevailed. Meta-regression revealed no characteristics associated with the proportion of these classes. Initial depression and anxiety levels predicted trajectory class membership for each other, but not always non-response. Unemployment, suicidality, social functioning impairment, treatment type and medication use predicted following non-responding trajectory.Conclusion: Our findings highlight the complex relationship between initial anxiety and depression severity and their changes during psychological interventions.

The causal relationship was examined using a causal forest approach to estimate average and heterogeneous treatment effects across non-genetic contributors.Results: Higher MD PRS was associated with an increased risk of self-harm. Significant heterogeneity was observed: the association was stronger among individuals exposed to physical violence or partner belittlement, but weaker among older adults and those with higher income.Conclusions: These findings highlight the importance of personalized prevention. Genetic vulnerability to depression reflects a heightened sensitivity to adverse environments, suggesting that genetic risk should be considered alongside trauma and socioeconomic contexts.","PeriodicalId":48135,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"330-343"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147677781","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used a binomial log-link generalised linear model to examine the association between birth mode and PPD risk. We applied a potential-outcome framework to test if negative childbirth experience or low self-esteem mediated this association. Additionally, we conducted in-depth interviews (IDIs) with mothers at risk of PPD.Results: Among 399 mothers, CS was associated with a 68% higher prevalence of screen-positive PPD compared with SVB [adjusted prevalence ratio = 1.68 (95% CI; 1.22, 2.32); p = 0.002]. Neither childbirth experience nor self-esteem mediated this association. In the qualitative analysis of 19 IDIs, we identified three themes increasing PPD risk: delayed physical recovery from post-surgical challenges; emotional trauma, unmet expectations, and anxiety about future pregnancies; and experiences of social isolation coupled with financial strain.Conclusion: Screen-positive PPD was common after both SVD and CS, and the association with CS persisted after adjustment for measured confounders. Universal postpartum screening and stepped psychosocial support, with enhanced recovery care for CS, may reduce burden.","PeriodicalId":48135,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"306-318"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145758040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Carers described a general state of vigilance that was heightened during the trial, and often felt they were better at detecting warning signs of deterioration than clinicians.
