Understanding suicide clusters through exploring self-harm
There was a highly publicised cluster of at least ten suicides in South Wales, United Kingdom, in 2007-2008. We carried out a qualitative descriptive study using cross-case thematic analysis to investigate the experiences and narratives of eight individuals who lived in the area where the cluster occurred and who survived an episode of near-fatal self-harm at the time of the cluster. Interviews were conducted from 01.01.2015 to 31.12.2015. All in…
Self-Harm, Suicidal Behaviours, and Cyberbullying in Children and Young People
How data science can advance mental health research
A systematic review of the relationship between internet use, self-harm and suicidal behaviour in young people
A Diagnostic System Using Broad Categories With Clinically Relevant Specifiers
A diagnostic system for ICD-11 is proposed which commences with broad reorganization and simplification of the current categories and the use of clinically relevant specifiers. Such changes have implications for the positioning of diagnostic groups and lead to a range of possibilities for improving terminology and the juxtaposition of individual conditions. The development of ICD-11 provides the fi rst opportunity in almost two decades to improve…
Public involvement in suicide prevention
The study will inform interventions to promote public mental health awareness and will provide a basis on which to develop community-focussed suicide prevention strategies
Tales of biographical disintegration
Suicide research relies heavily on accounts provided by bereaved relatives, using a method known as the psychological autopsy. Psychological autopsy studies are invariably quantitative in design and their findings reinforce the medical model of suicide, emphasising the role of mental illness. They largely ignore the meanings that narrators attach to events, the nature of the sense-making task and the influences bearing upon it. This study drew on…
Does social cohesion modify the association between area income deprivation and mental health? A multilevel analysis
BACKGROUND: Despite the increasing belief that the places where people live influence their health, there is surprisingly little consistent evidence for their associations with mental health. We investigated the joint effect of community and individual-level socio-economic deprivation and social cohesion on individual mental health status. METHODS: Multilevel analysis of population survey data on 10,653 adults aged 18-74 years nested within the 3…
Measuring the neighbourhood using UK benefits data
This study provides evidence for substantive contextual effects on mental health, and in particular the importance of small-area levels of economic inactivity and disability. DWP benefits data offer a more specific measure of local neighbourhood than generic deprivation indices and offer a starting point to hypothesise possible causal pathways to individual mental health status

User involvement in research
The extent to which collaborative research can redress power imbalances is debated with reference to some of the relevant literature. Different ways in which research can be collaborative and power shared between researchers and participants are discussed. The benefits and challenges specific to collaboration in the area of mental health research are considered, illustrated with examples from research we conducted into the experience of taking an…
Stress in Farmers
This study aims to document the nature and extent of occupational stress in farming. A postal survey of farmers in the South West of England, was undertaken and results indicate high levels of occupational stress in farming families. 35% of respondents scored positively on the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) with female respondents showing significantly higher scores than males. A significant proportion of respondents also showed elevated leve…
The Burden of Personality Disorder
Patients with a clinical diagnosis of personality disorder (PD) often suffer prolonged distress. They are a considerable burden on psychiatric services and they are experienced as difficult to manage by their keyworkers. This paper describes the creation of a community-based case register of patients suffering from PD. It explores the relationship between psychological distress, personality dysfunction, service utilisation and keyworker stress. M…
The development of the Short Explanatory Model Interview (Semi) and its use among primary-care attenders with common mental disorders
Background. Recent anthropological studies have documented the importance of understanding the relation of culture to the experience of mental illness. The use of interviews that elicit explanatory models has facilitated such research, but currently available interviews are lengthy and impractical for epidemiological studies. This paper is a preliminary report on the development of a brief instrument to elicit explanatory models for use in field …
Focus Groups in Mental Health Research
Most mental health researchers rely upon quantitative methods of data collection. Whilst such methods are commonly seen as reliable, qualitative methods are often seen as more valid. Despite the value of qualitative methods of data collection, however, many researchers denigrate their use. Qualitative research is often viewed as lacking in scientific rigour. This paper explores the use of the focus group as a qualitative instrument to enhance the…
Depression and Anxiety Among Afro-Caribbean General Practice Attenders in Britain
Schizophrenia is diagnosed more frequently among Afro-Caribbeans in Britain than among white British controls. Studies among the general population indicate that non-psychotic disorders such as anxiety, depression and functional somatic symptoms are the commonest expression of psychiatric morbidity. Yet, among Afro- Caribbean primary care attenders, rates of anxiety and depression appear lower than in the general population. This finding is at od…
