Previous studies have implicated factors such as levels of distress, mental health literacy, and stigma. Motivated by concept creep research, we tested whether self-diagnosis is also associated with the expansiveness of people's concepts of mental disorder. A nationally representative sample of 474 Americans completed measures of distress, impairment, mental health literacy, stigma, and newly validated concept breadth scales, in addition to current and lifetime mental disorder (both self- and professionally-diagnosed) and help-seeking. Structural equation modeling demonstrated that participants with broader concepts of disorder were more likely to self-diagnose and seek help, independent of distress and impairment, mental health literacy, and low stigma. Holding broader concepts also partially accounted for higher levels of self-diagnosis among younger and more liberal participants and predicted self-diagnosis independently of formal diagnosis. Implications for the surge in self-diagnosis and concerns about pathologization of everyday life are discussed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74861,"journal":{"name":"SSM.

The primary objective is to gain a comprehensive understanding of the potential stressors and traumatic experiences encountered by these individuals, encompassing both psychological and physiological dimensions, while also examining the dynamics of resilience and elements contributing to their overall well-being. The findings, derived through thematic content analysis, underscore the cumulative nature of traumatic events experienced by migrants throughout their lifetimes and across various stages of the migration continuum. The study, in alignment with extant scholarly literature, identifies thematic categories such as “A scenario of conflict and mourning, \" everyday experience of violence and discrimination,” “health at risk”, and \" Seeking security.” Refugees recount enduring multiple traumas, including familial bereavements and losses resulting from conflicts and militarized violence. Furthermore, the analysis elucidates a profound interplay between traumatic occurrences, subjective well-being, and resilience among the studied population. Despite confronting adverse living circumstances, refugees demonstrate indicators of subjective well-being, hinting at the potential for resilience and recovery. This challenges conventional diagnostic frameworks such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and underscores the necessity for a nuanced understanding of trauma's multifaceted impacts. Nevertheless, the study underscores the urgent need for a more robust and contextually attuned mental health support infrastructure, advocating for a deeper exploration of the socio-political determinants underpinning forced migration. By comprehending the root causes of displacement through a socio-political lens, policymakers and practitioners can devise comprehensive strategies and interventions aimed at both prevention and mitigation of factors precipitating forced migration. This approach seeks to foster a global landscape wherein compassionate and well-informed interventions proactively address the underlying drivers of displacement.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74861,"journal":{"name":"SSM.

This type of mortality, and key precursor “diseases of despair” like depressive mood and substance-related problems, tend to concentrate in people affected by deindustrialization and the loss of well-paid industrial jobs, that is, working-age adults with less than a BA degree. It is thought that risks build up when young adults with less education struggle to find decent jobs upon entering the labor market, which in turn triggers (1) subjective perceptions of being stuck in lower socioeconomic rungs; and (2) exposure to chronic stressors in various domains (e.g., housing, relationships). This study examined whether wages were related to diseases of despair (i.e., depressive mood and substance-related problems) through these two types of processes in a longitudinal sample (N = 543) overrepresenting young Canadian adults with lower educational attainment followed from their mid-teens to their mid-20s. Psychological processes and outcomes were self-reported, whereas exposure to stressors was assessed with a gold-standard interview-based protocol. After taking into account key potential confounders measured in adolescence (e.g., stressor exposure, mental health symptoms), results show that wages in early adulthood (in the early and mid-20s) were indirectly associated with depressed mood and substance-related problems in the mid-20s, through internal psychological processes and external exposure to chronic stressors. The specific processes in play varied by outcome. For depressive mood, subjective perceptions of one's relative socioeconomic position emerged as particularly relevant, whereas for substance-related problems, significant indirect associations emerged only when both internal psychological processes and external exposures to stressors were considered jointly. Access to decent jobs offering good wages among young adults without university degrees should thus be considered when designing policies aimed at reducing diseases of despair in younger generations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74861,"journal":{"name":"SSM.

Despite its significance for declines in and recovery of adult mental health, this initial period is not sufficiently captured in existing research following changes across annual or even broader intervals. This paper assesses the impact of the first and second parent’s death on adult mental health on more fine-grained monthly timescales. Using data from up to 12 waves of the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (GSOEP) and fixed-effects models with yearly and monthly impact functions, the analysis yielded two main findings. First, mental health declines were much deeper when measured on a monthly scale. The magnitude of drops recorded within the first two months following parental death approximately doubled those measured at an annual scale. Second, recovery occurred much faster when recorded on a monthly timescale and was evident already a few months after the loss of a parent. Overall, this study suggests that reaction and adaptation to parental death are stronger and faster than previously documented. The study additionally identified variations in mental health responses. Those who lost their first parent had worse mental health a year after the event compared to those who lost their second parent. The most significant decline in mental health, around 10 points, occurred among daughters one to two months after their mother's death. When the mother died first, the impact was more severe on mental health, especially among younger daughters and sons.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74861,"journal":{"name":"SSM.

However, research is needed that describes the process of blending these two approaches and explores the experiences of community partners. This study builds from a stepped-wedge cluster-randomized trial in Western Kenya, wherein teachers and community health volunteers have been trained to provide trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT). Mobile phones emerged as a tool to supervise lay counselors from afar; however, their use was characterized by unique challenges. Informed by human-centered design and implementation science, we first engaged lay counselors (n = 24) and supervisors (n = 3) in individual semi-structured interviews then hosted an in-person participatory workshop to “co-design” solutions to optimize the use of mobile phone supervision. Lay counselors participated in focus group discussions regarding their experiences in the workshop. Focus group transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis. We describe our approach as well as focus group discussion results. Counselors felt the workshop was a valuable experience to learn new strategies from their colleagues, and they enjoyed the “collaborative spirit” that emerged as they worked together. Counselors felt that varying small and large group discussions fostered participation by creating opportunities for more people to engage and share their thoughts. Counselors suggested the approach be improved by providing more tangible materials (e.g., hand-outs) and more closely following a schedule of activities. It is important to also center stakeholders’ experiences as partners in the research process. Though counselors largely expressed positive sentiments, they also shared valuable suggestions for how to improve participatory research practices in the future.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74861,"journal":{"name":"SSM.
