Training TikTok creators in mental health communication can benefit their audiences on social media
The rapid rise of social media presents new opportunities for implementing network interventions to improve health outcomes. In the mental health domain, content creators can serve as influential community leaders, yet it remains unclear whether creator-focused training impacts the mental health attitudes and behaviors of their audiences. This study evaluates the effectiveness of creator-focused interventions on the mental health knowledge and knowledge-based skill bases of their audiences using two experiments. First, an on-platform randomized controlled trial (RCT) provided evidence-based mental health communication toolkits and training to TikTok creators. Analyzing 188,169 comments from 1,882 videos by 49 creators (March–May 2023), we found a 4% increase in foundational mental health knowledge construction among viewers—defined as the initial stage of learning through reflection on personal experiences or opinions. Second, an off-platform survey experiment exposed a nationally representative sample of 1,000 U.S. youth (aged 14–22) to pre- and post-training videos created by a lifestyle influencer. Participants who viewed the post-training video showed significant improvements in both perceived and objectively assessed emotional support skills. By combining the external validity of the on-platform RCT with the internal validity of the survey experiment, our study provides robust evidence that creator training toolkits can enhance mental health knowledge and competencies among audiences, supporting the promise of scalable, evidence-based communication strategies on social media

(In)Alienable Worth? Cultural Logics of Dignity, Honor, and Face and their Links to Prosociality Across the World
Cultural logic is a set of cultural scripts and patterns organized around a central theme. The cultural logics of dignity, honor, and face describe different ways of evaluating a person’s worth and maintaining cooperation. These cultural logics vary in prevalence across cultures. We will collaboratively develop and validate a measure capturing these cultural logics, which will allow us to map world cultures based on the prevalence of these logics. We will further explore the interrelations of dignity, honor, and face with prosocial behavior, values, moral beliefs, and religiosity as well as examine the generalizability of these relationships across cultures. Finally, we will explore historical antecedents (e.g., resource scarcity) and current correlates (e.g., inequality) of the country-level prevalence of these cultural logics. This study will generate a new dataset of country scores for dignity, honor, and face that will be available for future comparative research. It will also provide theoretical insights for researchers and practitioners interested in cooperation and social behavior within and between cultures
A protocol for a scoping review of service user experiences of iatrogenic harm in early intervention in psychosis services in the UK since 2000
Early intervention in psychosis (EIP) services were introduced to the NHS in 1999 (Department of Health, 1999), and have been nationally mandated in England since 2001 (Department of Health, 2001), with the aim to treat and support people experiencing a first episode of psychosis and for up to three years thereafter (NHS England, 2023). People with psychosis have higher rates of both trauma (de Vries et al., 2019) and trauma-related diagnoses such as post-traumatic stress disorder (Hardy & Mueser, 2017) than the general population. As a result of these increased prevalence rates of trauma, EIP service users are at increased risk of experiencing retraumatisation during their mental healthcare.
In part due to the fact that EIP services do not routinely apply trauma-informed approaches, EIP service users remain at risk of retraumatisation and iatrogenic harm during their care. Prior research has assessed the impact EIP services have on people using both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. The majority of this work has reported broadly positive experiences of mental health service users in EIP services (Allard et al., 2018; Hansen et al., 2018; Harris et al., 2012; Jansen et al., 2018; Lester et al., 2011). Nonetheless, there is also evidence that some service users can experience iatrogenic harm, however little has been formally investigated about this topic in EIP services specifically, and this does not appear to have been quantified or reviewed. In part due to lack of funding, carers of young people accessing EIP services report inadequate service responsiveness during crises, including a lack of timely responses or preparedness (McCann et al., 2011). Young people in EIP services have also reported long waits to be assigned a case manager, leading to them feeling their recovery was on hold, and a sense of disempowerment (Tindall et al., 2015).
Overall, despite research supporting the effectiveness of trauma-informed care, the application of these approaches in EIP services in the NHS is limited, leaving service users vulnerable to iatrogenic harm and retraumatisation. This scoping review aims to formally assess what is known about how service users can be harmed in EIP services. Exploring the qualitative literature on service user experiences of EIP, we will extract data relating to harm. Based on the existing literature we have preliminarily defined harm as including psychological harm (e.g., worsening symptoms, increases in self-harm or suicidality), social harm, (e.g., negative impacts on relationships), financial harm, physical harm, adverse medication effects, and future service use harm. As this is a scoping review, we will also explore whether there may be other areas of harm from the service-user perspective
Multimethod Associations and Psychometric Properties of the Personality Inventory for DSM-5 Brief Form
The Personality Inventory for DSM-5-Brief Form (PID-5-BF) has become widely used for providing efficient self-report assessment of trait domains from the Alternative Model for Personality Disorders (AMPD). Existing studies of the PID-5-BF’s psychometric properties have been informative, but they have often relied on monomethod assessment. We advance research on the PID-5-BF’s psychometrics and understanding of multimethod personality-psychopathology associations by conducting analyses integrating self-report, informant, and interview measures. As a second related aim, we examined the degree of self-informant convergence for AMPD ratings. Adult participants (N = 235; 44% currently accessing psychotherapy) completed self and interview measures of psychopathology and substance use, with a subset of these participants (n = 116) also contributing informant data. Results indicated that PID-5-BF scores generally showed theoretically consistent mono- and cross-method associations, though some specific findings indicated possible discriminant validity issues for select PID-5-BF scales. Self and informant AMPD trait ratings also converged moderately, with self-rated negative affectivity and psychoticism mean levels slightly exceeding informant-rated mean levels. Thus, our study presents multimethod results supporting the self-report PID-5-BF’s validity overall, while also advancing understanding of multimethod trait associations when using brief trait measures such as the PID-5-BF. We draw on these results to discuss ideas for sharpening dimensional assessment in research on personality disorders specifically and transdiagnostic psychopathology more generally
Marco Conceitual do Observatório de Saúde da População Negra: uma revisão de escopo
Os observatórios de saúde são importantes instrumentos de avaliação e monitoramento de programas e políticas, além de poderem ser utilizados no auxílio para a tomada de decisão. Eles podem também ser instrumentos de participação social, promoção da saúde e elaboração de políticas públicas.
Nesse sentido, buscamos identificar como os observatórios são conceituados, como estão estruturados e como se organizam para monitorar e avaliar políticas públicas, assim como, as suas estratégias para influenciar na tomada de decisões em políticas públicas. Nosso intuito é considerar esses achados para a elaboração do marco conceitual e estrutural de um observatório de saúde da população negra.
A Política Nacional de Saúde Integral da População Negra, resulta de reivindicações do movimento negro organizado em seu pleito histórico por políticas públicas de enfrentamento das iniquidades em saúde a que tem sido submetida a população negra brasileira, tendo como objetivo “Promover a saúde integral da população negra, priorizando a redução das desigualdades étnico-raciais, o combate ao racismo e à discriminação nas instituições e serviços do SUS”.
Esse contexto orienta e justifica a importância de estruturação de um observatório de saúde da população negra como um espaço de produção, disseminação e compartilhamento de conhecimento e práticas que potencializem o acesso da população negra a um atendimento integral, universal e equânime; assim como, um espaço de troca com profissionais de saúde, gestores, lideranças do movimento social, docentes, discentes, pesquisadores e a população em geral em articulação com a formação de recursos humanos trabalhadores no SUS.
Em face do exposto, propomos neste estudo a realização de uma revisão de escopo rápida com o objetivo de conhecer os observatórios de saúde existentes a fim de que as informações auxiliem na construção do Marco Conceitual para estruturar o Observatório de Saúde da População Negra
