A Comprehensive Mapping of Intergenerational Caregiving
Families remain central to later‐life support, yet evidence on intergenerational caregiving is fragmented across dyads, generations, and cultural contexts. This scoping review maps how caregiving is organized and negotiated across structural, associational, affectual, functional, consensual, and normative dimensions. Following PRISMA‐ScR and Arksey and O’Malley's framework, seven databases and Google Scholar were searched. Eligible studies report…
Perceptions of Mental Health Recovery among Social Work Students
Country-specific key lifestyle factors and health outcomes for resource allocation in the general population
Background: We aimed to identify the central lifestyle, the most impactful among lifestyle factor clusters; the central health outcome, the most impactful among health outcome clusters; and the bridge lifestyle, the most strongly connected to health outcome clusters, across 29 countries to optimise resource allocation for local holistic health improvements. Methods: From July 2020 to August 2021, we surveyed 16 461 adults across 29 countries who …
Individuals’ positive gains from the Covid-19 pandemic
Background: Given the limited understanding of individuals' positive gains, this study aimed to identify these gains that could be leveraged by policymakers to enhance future health and societal resilience. Methods: We used a global qualitative approach to survey adults over 18 from 30 countries across six World Health Organization (WHO) regions, who detailed up to three personal positive gains from COVID-19 pandemic via an open-ended question. I…
Virtual reality for experiential learning
Agitation in healthcare, particularly in psychiatric settings, is a prevalent and escalating global concern. Despite its significance, healthcare students often feel underprepared to manage agitation, citing fear, stigma, and limited clinical exposure. Traditional teaching methods, such as lectures or simulations, are resource-intensive and offer limited opportunities for repeated practice in low-risk environments. Virtual reality (VR) offers a p…
Key lifestyles and health outcomes across 16 prevalent chronic diseases
Background: Central and bridge nodes can drive significant overall improvements within their respective networks. We aimed to identify them in 16 prevalent chronic diseases during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic to guide effective intervention strategies and appropriate resource allocation for most significant holistic lifestyle and health improvements. Methods: We surveyed 16 512 adults from July 2020 to August 2021 in 30 territ…
Fear in general populations
Background: In this study, we assessed the general population's fears towards various diseases and events, aiming to inform public health strategies that balance health-seeking behaviours. Methods: We surveyed adults from 30 countries across all World Health Organization (WHO) regions between July 2020 and August 2021. Participants rated their fear of 11 factors on an 11-point Likert scale. We stratified the data by age and gender and examined va…
Key lifestyles and interim health outcomes for effective interventions in general populations
Background: The interconnected nature of lifestyles and interim health outcomes implies the presence of the central lifestyle, central interim health outcome and bridge lifestyle, which are yet to be determined. Modifying these factors holds immense potential for substantial positive changes across all aspects of health and lifestyles. We aimed to identify these factors from a pool of 18 lifestyle factors and 13 interim health outcomes while inve…
Global impacts of Covid-19 on lifestyles and health and preparation preferences
Background: The health area being greatest impacted by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and residents' perspective to better prepare for future pandemic remain unknown. We aimed to assess and make cross-country and cross-region comparisons of the global impacts of COVID-19 and preparation preferences of pandemic. Methods: We recruited adults in 30 countries covering all World Health Organization (WHO) regions from July 2020 to August 2021. 5 L…
Impact of the Hope Intervention on Mental Health Literacy, Psychological Well-Being and Stress Levels amongst University Undergraduates
Mental health literacy (MHL) promotes mental health among youths. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the newly developed HOPE intervention in improving depression literacy, anxiety literacy, psychological well-being, and reducing personal stigma and stress levels amongst young adults at a university in Singapore. After two pilot studies, we conducted a randomised controlled trial (RCT) and recruited 174 participants aged 18-24 years old th…
Medical students’ perception towards mental health recovery
The conceptualisation of recovery in mental healthcare, for which two definitions ('clinical' and 'personal') prevail, remains inconclusive. In most curricula of medical education, undergraduates are taught straightforward concepts of clinical recovery, which result in their perfunctory and rudimentary understanding. A qualitative descriptive approach was adopted to explore medical undergraduates' perceptions of recovery for people with mental he…
Where-There-Is-No-Psychiatrist Integrated Personal Therapy” among Community-Dwelling Older Adults
In Singapore, many older adults suffer from subsyndromal depression and/or subsyndromal anxiety, which can negatively impact their physical and mental well-being if left untreated. Due to the general public's reluctance to seek psychological help and the low psychiatrist-to-population ratio in Singapore, this study aims to examine the preliminary efficacy, perceptions, and acceptability of a trained volunteer-led community-based intervention on c…
Exploring long‐term volunteerism in a community family service centre in Singapore
Volunteerism contributes significantly to the social development of a country. Although the rate of volunteerism has steadily increased over the years, the numbers of regular volunteers remains small. While the existing literature has elucidated individuals' motivations for volunteerism, research is lacking on their motivations and challenges in sustaining long-term volunteerism. A focused ethnographic approach was adopted in this study to explor…
Nurses’ experiences on the road during transition into community care
Healthcare systems are evolving to meet the demands of an ageing population whereby the provision of health care services in the community has increased to alleviate the burden faced by acute care health facilities. As the result, the number of community nurses are expected to increase in order to meet the demand. Several studies have identified the unique challenges faced by the growing responsibilities of community nurses. However, fewer studie…
“I Would Like to Be Heard.” Communicating With Singaporean Chinese Patients With Dementia
Introduction: Although first-generation Singaporean Chinese were mainly immigrants from Mainland China, the communication patterns of Singaporean Chinese in the present-day context differs from Mainland Chinese. This difference could be attributed to the subculture but is not conclusive. This study aimed to explore the experiences of nursing staff communicating with Singaporean Chinese with dementia in Singapore. Method: A focused ethnographic st…
Governing the Information Ecosystem
Political upheavals like the 2016 United States Presidential election have thrown political deceit into the global spotlight. Political deceit can cause varying degrees of harm—from exacerbating existing social fault lines to potentially undermining democratic processes and effective governance. Thus, governments around the world are responding seriously to combat the scourge. In Southeast Asia, governments have recognized the need to tackle the …

A Comprehensive Mapping of Intergenerational Caregiving
Families remain central to later‐life support, yet evidence on intergenerational caregiving is fragmented across dyads, generations, and cultural contexts.
