Untreated mental illness as a result of trauma is a significant health concern leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Individuals in post-conflict countries, like Uganda, are at risk for poor mental health outcomes because of trauma as a result of decades of violent conflict coupled with a lack of access to quality psychological care. Community-based psychological service delivery programs, like Mental Health First Aid (MHFA), have been found to be effective in helping individuals with mental and emotional problems access care. However, little is known about the cultural adaptations needed and implementation considerations of these kinds of community programs for under-resourced nations. This case study describes key considerations for the implementation of the MHFA curriculum in various regions throughout the country of Uganda. Specifically, this case study gathered observations while implementing MHFA and highlights challenges, such as cultural adaptability and country infrastructure, that must be addressed when attempting to implement Western mental health curricula in non-Western nations, like Uganda. Recommendations for the use of psychological service delivery programs in developing countries are presented. If incorporated, these recommendations will serve to increase access to mental health services in the regions of the world that need them most.

However, law enforcement officers frequently arrest sex-trafficking survivors for prostitution in accordance with state law. This study examined the psychology of public reactions and judgments of sex-trafficking survivors demonstrating the importance of situational factors, cognitive stereotypes, and moral emotions. Using Stereotype Content Modeling to measure the stereotypes that 762 community members held about prostitutes, we found shared stereotypes that were low in competence (i.e., capable and skilled) and warmth (i.e., good-natured and friendly). These participants later read modified case facts from United States v. Bell (United States v. Bell, 761 F.3d (8th Cir. 2014)) that varied survivor history of prostitution, vulnerability, and prostitution as a subsequent livelihood. Participants who stereotyped prostitutes as low in warmth and competence were the ones most certain police should arrest the survivor. Moral emotion analyses further showed that a survivor with no prior prostitution history and who came from a nonvulnerable background invoked disgust and contempt, which predicted a higher certainty of the arrest. Moral emotions fully mediated the relationship between the interacting case facts and arrest certainty for the trafficking survivor. Future directions and policy implications are discussed.

Individuals with severe mental illness often face (anticipated) discrimination and (criminal) victimization, which have severe consequences for their social participation. The aim of the present study is to assess the effectiveness of a new intervention to manage and prevent revictimization, and to support safe participation by recognizing and acknowledging the impact of their victimization experiences.
A multicenter cluster randomized controlled trial was performed by following clients from four intervention teams and four teams providing care as usual. The primary outcomes were social participation, victimization, and discrimination. The secondary outcomes were acknowledgment of difficulties, self-efficacy and empowerment, quality of life, and psychosocial functioning. Data were collected at baseline, and after 10- and 20-month follow-ups. The data were analyzed according to the intention-to-treat principle using linear mixed models and generalized estimating equations. In total, 400 clients were includelt significantly more acknowledged and supported in their recovery process. Further development of the intervention is needed, and future research should focus on improving implementation.

Although promising, limited research examines how and why young adults disengage from these new models. This study examines provider documentation of treatment discharges to create a more developmentally-attuned young adult service exit typology. Method Service records of 18-25 year-olds (n = 124) who discharged from a young adult-tailored multidisciplinary treatment team over a 5-year period were analyzed. A research team conducted a systematic content analysis of discharge forms and service notes. Planned and unplanned exits emerged as primary categories, each having distinct subcategories with noted prevalent associated experiences. Selleckchem Sitravatinib Results Participants (n = 124) were enrolled between 7 days to 3.80 years (M = 11.41 months) prior to exit. Those with "planned" exits (n = 71) were enrolled longer than those with "unplanned" exits (n = 53), means respectively 13.17 versus 9.06 months. Planned exits included transitions either to a lower, similar or higher level of care, a return to previous provider, or insurance issues. Moving outside team geographic area contributed to planned and unplanned exits. Unplanned exits were disproportionately found among participants who were Black, had justice involvement histories, and/or experienced housing instability or homelessness. Conclusions and Implications for Practice Young adult service exits are complex; planned exits are not always positive and unplanned exits are not always negative. Provider and research use of this new service exit typology has particular implications for identifying engagement disparities-and further tailoring models to be more attractive, culturally responsive, and impactful with young adults.
