This study examined the relationship between traumatic exposure, host language acquisition and mental health (posttraumatic stress, depressive anxiety symptoms) in long-term resettled refugees. Participants included a community sample of Bosnian refugees ( N = 138, 55% male, mean age 40 years old) that had Australia Austria on average 18 prior. Two mediation models were tested based two competing theories. Model A whether mediates exposure problems experienced by B symptoms mediate to events...
Research indicates that exposure to war-related traumatic events impacts on the mental health of refugees and leads higher rates posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety symptoms. Furthermore, associated with migration process has also been shown impact negatively refugees' health, but extent these experiences is highly debatable as relationships between events, migration, outcomes are complex poorly understood.
High-income countries like Australia play a vital role in resettling refugees from around the world, half of whom are children and adolescents. Informed by an ecological framework, this study examined post-migration adjustment refugee adolescents 2-3 years after arrival to Australia. We aimed estimate overall rate among young explore associations with factors across individual, family, school, community domains, using large broadly representative sample.Data were drawn Wave 3 Building New...
ABSTRACT Aim Accurate and appropriate cognitive screening can significantly enhance early psychosis care, yet no tools have been validated for the population little is known about current practices, experiences, or factors that may influence implementation. CogScreen a hybrid type 1 study aiming to validate two promising with young people first episode (primary aim) understand context implementing in settings (secondary aim). This protocol outlines implementation study, which aims explore...
The representation of low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) in traumatic stress research is important to establish a global evidence base, build capacity, reduce the burden unmet mental health needs around world. Reviews literature up 2002 showed trends toward globalization although LMIC were only marginally represented compared high-income (HIC).To examine nature current research. In particular, we interested extent which is: (1) conducted LMIC, (2) by researchers, (3) accessible...
There is currently no uniform definition of treatment response for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to guide researchers and clinicians in the area mental health. The aim this systematic review was explore operationalization PTSD response, by reviewing synthesizing key criteria used define nonresponse published trials. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing effectiveness first-line interventions were identified inclusion. Of those, 143 provided 226 definitions grouped under five...
Suicide is a leading cause of mortality among young people aged 15-24 globally. Despite the deployment comprehensive suicide prevention strategies, we still do not know which interventions, for groups people, how long and with what intensity could generate most significant reductions in rates. System dynamics modelling has potential to address these gaps. SEYMOUR (System Dynamics Modelling Prevention) will develop evaluate system model that indicate interventions rates attempted 12-25...
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a significant problem for military veterans. There an international imperative to improve access effective treatments, but more research needed ascertain the extent which treatments found be efficacious in settings translate successful national implementation efforts.This study reports clinical outcomes first 100 clients treated following of cognitive processing therapy (CPT) across community-based veterans' mental health service that commenced May...
Abstract Improved metrics of Post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) treatment response that extend beyond a focus on symptom reduction to incorporate meaningful, patient‐centred indicators functioning are needed in veteran populations. The aim this study was previous research by investigating whether can successfully distinguish against categories derived from the Post‐Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist (PCL‐5) pre‐ and post‐ PTSD treatment. Participants were 472 veterans receiving...
IPV is a significant concern among active duty (AD) military personnel or veterans, and there need for initiatives to address violence perpetrated by such personnel, victimisation in veteran-specific contexts. The aim of this paper was provide an overview major intervention approaches evidence health services. A scoping review conducted involving systematic search all available published studies describing interventions Findings were synthesised narratively, relation conceptual framework...
<title>Abstract</title> Background Suicide remains a leading cause of death for young Australians. We need robust analytical tools to help us understand and respond the dynamic complexity underlying suicide suicidal behaviour. Participatory systems modelling leverages empirical data together with experiential knowledge stakeholders inform model building, evaluation, implementation. Efforts evaluate collaborative deliberative processes such as participatory system remain sparse. The aim this...
<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Background</bold>: Suicide is the fourth leading cause of death among young people aged 15–29 worldwide. Young often present to emergency departments (EDs) with self-harm and suicide related behaviors. The period following discharge from ED recognized as one elevated risk for both repeated suicide. During this critical time, prevention aftercare services are recommended. Despite their increased popularity, evidence demonstrating effectiveness these models very...
