Adolescent readiness for mobile mental health support in Soweto
Poor mental health is a growing issue among adolescents, with untreated conditions persisting into adulthood and typically increasing in severity. South Africa's mental health legislation faces key barriers to implementation due to limited access to treatment and support, as well as persistent challenges related to stigma, privacy concerns and affordability. Mobile mental health (M-mHealth) could be a sustainable and scalable alternative for redu…
Simple Solutions for Complex Problems
Background Mental health challenges are among the most critical health issues facing young people in low‐ and middle‐income countries, but with limited resources. Nearly half of adult mental health conditions begin by age 14, making adolescence a critical period for mental health promotion and intervention. Mobile mental health (M‐mHealth) interventions have been promoted as sustainable and scalable in terms of reach and impact. Research on adole…

The development and use of adolescent mobile mental health (m-mhealth) interventions in low- and middle-income countries
Adult mental health challenges frequently stem from undiagnosed poor mental health earlier in life. With increasing levels of poor adolescent mental health and insufficient health care resources in low- and middle-income countries, mobile mental health may offer expanded service access. Little is known about mobile mental health interventions for adolescents in low- and middle-income countries. Our aim was to review the literature on mobile menta…
To trust or not to trust
As South Africa debates the implementation of mandatory vaccination policies to address coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine hesitancy, many adults remain unpersuaded of the need and benefits of vaccination. Several surveys suggest that this is particularly true for younger adults and for those living in low-income communities. Therefore, we sought the views of youth training to become community health workers (CHWs) as a youth group at th…
Video‐recording complex health interactions in a diverse setting
Video‐recording healthcare interactions provides important opportunities for research and service improvement. However, this method brings about tensions, especially when recording sensitive topics. Subsequent reflection may compel the researcher to engage in ethical and moral deliberations. This paper presents experiences from a South African genetic counselling study which made use of video‐recordings to understand communicative processes in ro…
Perceived challenges in the informed consent process
Enrollers play a critical yet often overlooked role in clinical research, particularly in informed consent processes. Study retention may depend in part on how complex information is conveyed to potential participants. This qualitative study aimed to assess communicative barriers during consent and enrolment in two South African TB / HIV clinical studies. In particular, we compared our own perceptions of potential challenges to consent with that …
