Unveiling the qualities of a ‘good doctor’
Findings highlight a need for training programs for healthcare professionals to foster the values inherent to delivery of person-centered care
Prevalence and determinants of mental health problems experienced by school-going adolescents in Sri Lanka
The mental health of Sri Lankan adolescents is of growing concern, given the decades of internal conflict and socio-political instability in Sri Lanka. This aims were to examine the prevalence and determinants of symptoms of common mental health problems (MHP) experienced by school-going adolescents in Sri Lanka. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among school-going adolescents in grades 10–12/13 from seven schools in Gampaha District, Sri La…
Relational Solidarity and Conflicting Ethics in Dementia Care in Urban India
There can be relational solidarity in dementia care at home in urban India but also contradictions in the interpretations and applications of the ethical principles of autonomy, equality, dignity, and personhood. As such, a more organic, grassroots model of ethical practice is needed to frame care and provide material support to families in India
Mental Illness
The anthropology of mental illness involves the study of human distress in context, which in turn shapes the way in which distress is understood and treated. Anthropology provides theoretical foundations and an ethnographic approach that attends to the lived experience of mental illness as well as capturing the intersections of the cultural, social, political, economic, historical, and ecological in the everyday. Much work in the field has contri…
Breaking the barriers
Dementia is a global health concern that affects individuals irrespective of their cultural or linguistic backgrounds. However, research has long recognized the pronounced stigma associated with dementia, particularly within Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) communities. This article seeks to summarize the underlying factors contributing to the heightened levels of dementia stigma within CALD communities, through a review of the litera…
Factors influencing the attitudes of young Sri Lankan-Australians towards seeking mental healthcare
Country of birth, family characteristics and gender influence stigma towards mental illness and help-seeking. Public health strategies to promote understanding of mental health problems and seeking mental healthcare are more likely to be effective if they address these factors directly
The experience of structural burden for culturally and linguistically diverse family carers of people living with dementia in Australia
Evidence suggests that family carers of culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) people living with dementia experience higher stress and unmet need than the general Australian population. These disparities are often framed as the result of CALD communities failing to seek formal support. Challenging this, we draw on the concept of 'structural burden' to explore how the complexity of health and aged systems contribute to the burden that CALD …
Boundary Crossers
In negotiating cultural, social, and professional boundaries, providers undertake multidimensional and complex work that involves education, advocacy, negotiation, navigation, creativity, and emotional engagement. This work is largely undervalued but offers a model of care that facilitates social and community development as well as service integration across health, aged care, and social services
The mind may go, but the heart knows
The symbolic mediation of patient trust
Legitimising depression
This article deploys a legitimacy framework to explore how Anglo-Australian and Indian-Australian community members living in Melbourne, Australia, interpret the diagnosis and treatment of depression. Examining community beliefs about depression illuminates the lay-discourses that people living with depression encounter when they disclose their experiences to others. Based on 10 focus groups with 77 community members from Indian-Australian and An…
What is at stake? Exploring the moral experience of stigma with Indian-Australians and Anglo-Australians living with depression
This article applies the framework of moral experience to examine the cultural experience of stigma with Indian-Australians and Anglo-Australians living with depression in Melbourne, Australia. To date few studies have examined this dynamic in relation to mental illness and culture, and no studies have applied this framework in a culturally comparative way. Based on 58 in-depth interviews with people with depression recruited from the community, …
Agency, activation and compatriots
The nexus between social networks and illness behaviours is important in uptake of health care, however scant research has explored this relationship in South Asian migrants living with mental illness. We explored the interplay between culture, social networks and health seeking in Sri Lankan migrants and Anglo-Australians living with depression. Forty-eight in-depth interviews were conducted and data were analysed through the theoretical prism o…
Becoming a patient-illness representations of depression of Anglo-Australian and Sri Lankan patients through the lens of Leventhal’s illness representational model
BACKGROUND: Depression is prevalent globally. While the uptake of mental health services is poor in the general community, the lack of service engagement is particularly profound in migrant and refugee communities. To understand why there is under-utilisation cross-cultural comparisons of how people make sense of mental illnesses such as depression are essential. AIMS: To verify how differing cultural aetiologies about depression influence mental…
Beyond patient culture
There is growing global consensus for researchers to look beyond patient culture to gain a more nuanced understanding of the ways in which wider socio-structural forces influence health outcomes. In line with these critiques, this paper examines culturally diverse patients’ views about the symptoms, aetiology, and experiences of their depression, and considers how socio-structural forces are implicated in the illness experience. Analysing the tra…
Playing With Antidepressants
Patient perspectives were explored on the meaning and experience of antidepressant use by applying Johan Huizinga's theory of play to interviews from Indian Australians and Anglo-Australians diagnosed with depression. Through the analysis, the centrality of Huizinga's "magic circle" emerged, that is, defining the boundaries within which one could safely play. Consumption of antidepressants involved learning, breaking, and modulating rules of the …
I'm running my depression
The current study examines how the neoliberal imperative to self-manage has been taken up by patients, focusing specifically on Indian-Australians and Anglo-Australians living with depression in Australia. We use Nikolas Rose's work on governmentality and neoliberalism to theorise our study and begin by explicating the links between self-management, neoliberalism and the Australian mental health system. Using qualitative methods, comprising 58 in…
