Individual and Sociocultural Determinants of Suicide in an Indian Community
India has a significant number of people exposed to suicide. The traumatic effects of these experiences, and the healing process of suicide survivors are poorly understood. We investigated suicide survivors’ experiences and post-suicide healing. Interviews were conducted with suicide survivors who received different types of support—home visits before COVID-19 and telephonic outreach during lockdown. Two researchers used “active listening” and “h…
Criminalisation of Juvenile Justice
The development of juvenile transfer laws, against the backdrop of significant public outrage against a perceived increase in juvenile crime, has generated multiple debates, mostly centred on issues of child-inclusive justice versus crime mitigation and public safety agendas. The resulting legal developments have sought to instrumentalise punitive justice approaches, that facilitate the criminalisation of a sub-group of children (based on age and…
The Child Needs to Tell it to Me in Words”
Much research on child witnesses in child sexual abuse trials is focused on children’s performance in legal proceedings. Witness competency, that is predicated on the adversarial justice system’s principle of orality, is core to child witness testimony, and is determined at the pre-trial stage. However, this article highlights the need to consider child witness competency as a dynamic concept, that varies in response to the ecologies of the trial…
Intra-household Variation in Pathways to Care for Epilepsy and Mental Disorders in Eastern Uganda
Integrating mental, neurological, and substance use (MNS) health care into the public health system has become a global priority, with mental health, and well-being now being part of the Sustainable Development Goals. In the aim to provide good quality care for MNS disorders, understanding patients' pathways to care is key. This qualitative study explores the pathways to care of patients attending an outpatient mental health clinic of a district …
The role of social cohesion in the implementation and coverage of a mass drug administration trial for malaria control in the Gambia
Mass drug administration (MDA), used increasingly in malaria eradication efforts, involves administering medication to an entire target population regardless of individual-level disease status. This strategy requires high levels of coverage and compliance. Previous studies have assessed individual and structural factors affecting MDA coverage, but there is a need to better understand the influence and expressions of community dynamics and social …
And it snowballed from there”
This study aims to include the perspective of those who share content about Orthorexia Nervosa (ON) on Instagram and self-diagnose with ON (SD-ON) to trace their development of ON, gain insights into risk factors, symptoms and recovery, and explore differences with those who do not SD-ON. This research used mixed methods, with a sequential explanatory design. The quantitative component (n = 185) aimed to identify biological, psychological, interp…
The Social Nature of Perceived Illness Representations of Perinatal Depression in Rural Uganda
While the global health community advocates for greater integration of mental health into maternal health agendas, a more robust understanding of perinatal mental health, and its role in providing integrated maternal health care and service delivery, is required. The present study uses the Illness Representation Model, a theoretical cognitive framework for understanding illness conceptualisations, to qualitatively explore multiple stakeholder per…
