Therefore, this integration is likely to bring about a big change to this area in the new era; it can subsequently cause many problems as well, including mental health issues of the people in this region. The characteristic differences among the GMS member countries in terms of trade and investment, so-cial and cultural values, medical information and technology, and the living and working environment have become major problems affecting mental health disorders, which are usually identified as depression, stress, and substance abuse.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This review paper is a literature review of the relationship of the determinants affecting GMS mental disorders conducted using the following strategies: 1) collecting data from previous qualitative and quantitative research studies, com-paratively analyzing the literature, articles, published papers, and reports relevant to the existing policies on economic, environmental, and healthcare issues obtained from the GMS; and 2) exchanging information from the institutions involved, including reports and papers regarding the determinants affecting mental health disorders of the people in the GMS, which were used to generate the synthesis of the existing knowledge of the mental health and to provide recommenda-tion programs for the GMS people.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Based on the reviewed literature there are four key factors affecting mental health, especially mental health in GMS populations: 1) the living and work environments; 2) trade and investment; 3) technology and medical information; and 4) social and cultural values. The study found that the increasing number of mental health dis-orders is a big burden for national healthcare spending. Financial issues have become a major key to the wide prevalence of mental disorders in the GMS. Health issues related to mental health disorders are also caused by the environment and other related factors and therefore a stable and a well-balanced environment is an indicator of healthy mental status. In addition, the environment is a way to pursue both physical and mental health because green spaces serve as a mood freshener and can al-leviate anxiety, stress, and depression.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Globalization and urbanization should follow sustainable development instructions and concerns about the population's health, especially regarding mental health. These key determinants affect the people's life, especially in terms of mental health thus leading to mental health disorders.</p>","PeriodicalId":51774,"journal":{"name":"Current Psychiatry Reviews","volume":"13 4","pages":"252-258"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2174/1573400513666170720143417","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35903425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many people in the general population will experience mild instances of such events at some point in their lives. However, for others, these are very disturbing events. Cognitive-behavioural models argue that these differences result from the interpretation of those same experiences. Therefore, cognitive behavioural therapy seeks to know the factors that contribute to the development (e.g. early traumatic experiences) and maintenance (e.g. selective attention, safety behaviours, disruptive control strategies) of psychotic processes, from the deep and isolated understanding of each patient’s experience of specific symptoms (e.g. paranoid delusions) rather than their syndromal diagnosis (e.g. schizophrenia). The case formulation for each complex psychotic symptom results from the initial intake assessment at the start of a prospective intervention. This article reviews the cognitive behavioural conceptualization of psychotic symptoms (i.e. auditory hallucinations, delusions and negative symptoms), as well as the key areas of assessment and therapeutic interventions proposed by these models. Key-words: Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy; Psychosis; Hallucinations; Delusions A growing number of meta-analyses have supported the use of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in the treatment of psychosis [1-14]. Overall, findings suggests that cognitive behaviour therapy for people with psychosis (CBTp) can be beneficial in reducing positive and negative symptoms, hallucinations and delusions, while also improving overall functioning and level of disability, both during post-intervention and follow-up. In one of the most recent studies [1], a systematic review and meta-analysis of 10 controlled trials evaluating low intensity CBT (i.e. fewer than 16 therapy contact hours) dealing with psychosis symptom outcomes, found significant between-group effects on psychosis symptoms during postintervention (d=−0.46) and follow-up (d=−0.40). It showed that low intensity CBTp led to significant post-intervention, between group differences in psychotic symptoms compared to control conditions with a medium effect size. Where follow-up was measured, this effect was maintained, with the follow-up time period ranging from 3 to 18 months. Pfammatter, [2] in a systematic review of findings of all relevant meta-analyses on CBT in the treatment of psychosis, demonstrates considerable differences in controlled efficacy; CBT for psychosis has long-term effects on the persistence of positive and negative symptoms, yet without any effect on acute positive symptoms and with limited benefits as an early intervention. Gould et al. [3] conducted a meta-analysis using all available controlled treatment outcome studies of cognitive therapy (CT) for psychotic symptoms in schizophrenia. The mean effect size for reduction of psychotic symptoms was 0.65.
