A Systematic Review of Adolescent Masculinities and Associations with Internalizing Behavior Problems and Social Support
Interest in the connection between masculinities and mental health continues to grow. However, no previous systematic review has explored this association for adolescents.

Photo-Based Evaluation
Actively engaging adolescents in meaningful program evaluation is a topic of growing interest. One possibility for such engagement is the use of photographs as part of visual evaluation, so that youth can directly engage with the research process. In this Method Note, we describe the development and implementation of a participatory, photo-based evaluation method for youth health promotion/prevention programs. Youth in this study were participant…
Perceptions and Experiences of Medical Assistance in Dying Among Illicit Substance Users and People Living in Poverty

The overwhelming response was that MAiD is better than suicide in the context of suffering at the end of life. Whereas…
