Rurality and mental health in Southern Italy
Disparities in mental health between urban and rural areas are well documented internationally but underexplored in Italy. Rural patients often face limited-service access, stigma, and underfunding. This research hypothesised structural barriers and role-related factors significantly influence perceptions of care among professionals, caregivers, and service users in rural Southern Italy. Using a mixed-methods design, a 5-point Likert survey was a…
Associations Between School Victimization, Perceived Family Functioning, and Suicidal Behavior in Peruvian Adolescents
Adolescence is considered a period of heightened risk for suicidal behavior (SB), and previous studies suggest that bullying experiences (BE) and family functioning (FF) are important associated factors. This study examined the associations of BE and FF with SB in adolescents. A total of 468 adolescents aged 12 to 17 years participated in the study (50.8% female; M = 14.4, SD = 1.6).

The World Psychiatric Association (WPA) Guideline on Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders Management for Low- and Middle-Income Countries
There is a pressing need to address the unique challenges of managing Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD) in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs), where mental health resources are scarce and unevenly distributed. To develop this evidence-based guideline, we conducted a systematic review of the literature, followed by three rounds of Delphi surveys with experts from LMICs.

Bullying and Psychoactive Substance Use Among Adolescents

In this cross-sectional study, the authors investigated the relationship between psychoactive substance use and involvement in bullying among Brazilian adolescents. M…
Geopolitical rhetoric as a potential psychological stressor
Although the mental health consequences of armed conflict, displacement, and climate-related disasters are well documented, the psychological effects of geopolitical rhetoric itself (independent of material events) remain insufficiently examined. This narrative review provides a conceptual and interdisciplinary synthesis of emerging and heterogeneous evidence on how threat-oriented political narratives may influence population mental health throu…

From Mood Episodes to Digital Signatures
BACKGROUND: Digital phenotyping has emerged as a promising approach to capture real-time behavioral and physiological data in individuals with bipolar disorder (BD). By integrating passive and active data streams, this approach may enable the identification of dynamic patterns associated with mood instability. However, the conceptual integration of these data into clinically meaningful digital signatures remains insufficiently defined and lacks s…

BACKGROUND: Suicide and aggression are significant public health concerns, particularly in vulnerable populations such as migrants. Emotional dysregulation, compounded by acculturation stress and socio-cultural challenges, may underlie both suicidality and aggression in migrants.

ChatGPT-4 in Psychiatric Discharge Summaries
BACKGROUND: Psychiatric discharge summaries are vital for ensuring continuity of care, yet they are often written in technical language that can be difficult for patients to understand and may cause emotional distress or reinforce stigma. With increasing patient access to medical records, there is a pressing need to develop communication tools that are both comprehensible and emotionally safe. AIM: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic fide…
Bulimia Nervosa in Adolescents
The aim of this study was to analyze whether exposure to esthetic content aligned with beauty standards on social media mediates the relationship between a history of childhood/adolescent sexual abuse and bulimic symptomatology in adolescents, and whether sex moderates these pathways. Participants were 283 secondary school students (52.6% female) from Chimbote, aged 13 to 17 years ( M = 15.2, SD = 1.14). The following instruments were administere…

Community mental health services and responsibility of psychiatrists in Italy
Basaglia’s reforms of Italian psychiatry led to the development of Community Mental Health Services which replaced the asylums with a remarkable change of perspective. The main aim was to treat patients in the community and no longer in the hospitals. The Italian model and its development influenced similar reforms in some other countries over the years. Also, we believe that it had a major impact on the legal responsibility of psychiatrists in I…

Domestic gender inter-personal violence and people with intellectual disability
There is considerable evidence in the literature that persons with intellectual disability are not only stigmatised against but are also often victim of inter-personal violence, which is often linked with gender but also with perceptions that these individuals are more violent. Gender-based violence can be both acute and chronic. The role culture plays in gender development and gender roles is well described. Gender roles and gender role expectat…
Comorbid obsessive-compulsive disorder and bipolar disorder in a highly endogamous population
Co-occurrence of bipolar disorder (BD) and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common and difficult comorbid condition to manage. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of comorbidity with OCD among BD patients in a highly endogamous population. A cohort study was carried out on 396 patients enrolled between November 2011 and October 2013. Patients were grouped in BD patients with OCD (BD-OCD) and BD patients without OCD, rate…
Prisoner mental health care for people with intellectual disability
Persons with intellectual disabilities are likely to be misdiagnosed and end up in prisons for petty offences. The rates of criminal behaviours will be influenced by social and cultural factors. What is seen as illegal behaviour in one society may not be so in another. Cultures also play a major and significant role in defining deviant behaviour and defining what is abnormal. Thus relationship between intellectual disability and criminal behaviou…
Subjective psychological wellbeing in medical students
Psychological wellbeing is associated with variables of living among all human beings and has important implications for college students. Their coping strategies will vary as will their responses, depending upon their self-esteem and self-efficacy, personality patterns, mental health, financial development and lifestyle. There is little research on subjective psychological wellbeing among college students. This study describes 560 self-report co…

Child sexual, physical and emotional abuse and intellectual disability
It is well acknowledged and understood that children who have been sexually, physically or emotionally abused are likely to experience psychiatric disorders in adulthood. Persons with intellectual disability who have been through abuse face a more complex double or even triple jeopardy because of mental illness, intellectual disability and abuse. They are more likely to be vulnerable to further exploitation and manipulation. Prevalence of disabil…
Health promotion in people with intellectual disabilities
As has been well described, intellectual disability carries significant psychiatric and physical morbidity with it. Mental health and physical health strongly influence each other, thus any attempts at health promotion require careful consideration. Thus any programmes for health promotion for both aspects in persons with intellectual disability have to be developed in an easy-to-understand manner so that families, their carers and individuals th…
