Interventions to decrease depression and anxiety often rely on creating routines with multiple sources of positive reinforcement and social connectedness. SIP obliterated daily routines and thus, may have led to increased isolation, depression, and anxiety. Interventions to support effective coping may help prevent and manage these outcomes. An automated text messaging intervention encouraging the use of evidence-based skills reinforced during therapy is a promising solution. The current manuscript describes our pilot study of Healthy@Home: an empirically based text intervention augmenting youth mental health services implemented during the initial months of COVID-19 SIP. We discuss the advantages and challenges of implementing a text intervention and present findings on engagement and acceptability from 14 adolescents over the course of participation in a 60-day pilot text-messaging intervention study.","PeriodicalId":72992,"journal":{"name":"Evidence-based practice in child and adolescent mental health","volume":"8 1","pages":"335 - 347"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41804397","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}

Andrea Chronis-Tuscano, PhD, and Gregory Fabiano, PhD. Submissions are due January 1, 2024. The STP is a well-known evidence-based treatment that was originally developed as an ecologically valid psychosocial intervention for elementary school age children with ADHD and it continues to primarily target this population. At the same time, recent clinical and research efforts have modified the STP to address a host of child and adolescent areas in need of new and/or intensive treatment approaches. With child and adolescent mental health concerns on the rise and representing a significant cost to our global society, applying the STP model to address other mental health areas, developmental stages, and a broader range of communities is both important and promising. This special issue seeks to highlight innovative modifications of the STP that enhance the research, training, and treatment relevant to youth mental health, including efforts that broaden the dissemination and implementation of the STP. This includes expanding populations served by the STP, expanding capacity of the STP within existing sites, supporting new sites in developing STPs, increasing the diversity of youth served by STPs, and considering STPs as a vehicle for training the next generation of child and adolescent mental health providers.

First, a conceptual paper by Ofonedu et al. (2023) presents the Family as Host (FAH) model as a novel framework that promotes access to nonstigmatizing, culturally responsive supports for Black youth of African descent. This model shifts the positions of Black youth and their family and clinical care providers to facilitate treatment engagement and healing. The authors discuss practice changes and implications for future research to support more egalitarian, culturally responsive approaches to promote positive psychological health outcomes. In the next article, Park et al. (2023) review the literature on psychosocial interventions for youth of color published between 1974 and 2018 with the aim of identifying strategies used to incorporate culture in effective psychosocial interventions. The authors delineate the most common strategies for incorporating culture into interventions for Black and Latinx/ Hispanic youth, as well as some remaining gaps in the evidence base for Asian, Native American and Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander youth. The authors discuss the nuances of providing effective mental health services that are culturally responsive and the need to better understand factors that mediate/moderate the benefits of tailoring interventions. They allude to the promise of decision support tools to help providers determine whether, when, and how to culturally tailor interventions with youth of color. Advancing equity in youth mental health services begins with ensuring that youth needs are identified and that services are accessible and address youth and family needs. To this end, Buitron et al. (2023) examine prior use of formal mental health services in a sample of Latinx youth hospitalized following a recent suicide crisis. They consider how dimensions of acculturation and enculturation, and relevant demographic and clinical indicators, are associated with prior service use. Despite high levels of current clinical need, nearly 20% of youth had not received mental health services prior to the recent hospitalization. The authors emphasize the need to support youth and their families in accessing needed services earlier and they highlight potential avenues for achieving this goal. Increased availability of telehealth services in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic may be one key avenue for increasing access to services. Castro et al. (2023) explore the perspectives of youth, caregivers, and providers on the telehealth delivery of services in an urban clinic serving a predominantly Latinx community. Using focus group methodology, the authors identify themes related to perceived strengths and limitations associated with telehealth service delivery.

They are typically brief and purposeless, but can create significant distress for individuals, and often co-occur with other neuropsychiatric conditions. Thus, early identification of tics is warranted. Unfortunately, tics are often misdiagnosed, and because tics may wax and wane, identification can be difficult, especially in the context of routine clinical visits. There are limited tools that can be used to reliably identify tics in clinical practice, especially in non-specialty settings. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the performance of the Motor tic, Obsession and compulsion, and Vocal tic Evaluation Survey (MOVES), a self-report scale with some support as a screening tool. In addition, the performance of a subset of questions (the MOVES-6) was evaluated for rapid screening. Participants were recruited across two study sites and included children and adolescents diagnosed with Tourette syndrome (<i>n</i> = 151) or another persistent tic disorder (<i>n</i> = 10) and community controls (<i>n</i> = 74). Results suggest both the MOVES and the MOVES-6 have high sensitivity (90% and 88%, respectively) and at least acceptable specificity (77% and 86%, respectively) compared with expert assessment of tic disorders, suggesting that both versions can identify tic disorders without high proportions of false negatives. Both versions were highly sensitive with acceptable specificity regardless of sex, race/ethnicity, and age. The MOVES and MOVES-6 show promise as a screener for tics or tic disorders, but additional research is needed, particularly in a general population setting.</p>","PeriodicalId":72992,"journal":{"name":"Evidence-based practice in child and adolescent mental health","volume":"8 2","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10267813/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9715234","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}
