Here are some ways social media can negatively impact mental health:
- Comparison: It's easy to compare your own life to the highlight reels people post online, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy. The curated lives people portray are often not an accurate reflection of reality.
- FOMO (fear of missing out): Constantly seeing updates about what friends are doing can trigger anxiety that you're not participating or being left out of experiences.
- Cyberbullying: Social media allows bullying to follow people everywhere via hurtful comments and messages. This can damage self-esteem.
- Less face time: Overuse of social media may replace real social interaction and connection, which is important for mental well

Grant Proposal-Assessing the role of stigma towards mental health patients in help seeking
Study problem
There are several studies that have shown that stigmatization towards mental health patients have been present throughout history and even despite the evolution in modern medicine and advanced treatment. For example, Verhaeghe et al., (2014), captures in a publication in reference to a study that he conducted that stigmatization towards mental health patients has been there even as early is in the 18th Century. People were hesitant to interact with people termed or perceived to have mental health conditions.
Stigmatization has resulted from the belief that those with mental problem are aggressive and dangerous creating a social distance (Szeto et al., 2017). Also, mental health-related stigma has become of major concern as it creates crucial barriers to access treatment and quality care since it not only influences the behaviour of the patients but also the attitude of the providers hence impacting help-seeking. Timmermann, Uhrenfeldt and Birkelund (2014), have identified stigma as a barrier that is of significance to care or help seeking while the extent to which it still remains a barrier have not been reviewed deeply. Therefore, this study will assess the role contributed by stigma in help seeking in depth. 1. Purpose
The intention of the research study is to review the association between stigma, mental illness and help seeking in order to formulate ways in which the stigma that is around mental health is done away with to enable as many people suffering from mental health complications to seek medical help.2. Background
Mental health is crucial in every stage of life. It is defined as the state of psychological well-being whereby the individual realizes a satisfactory integration instinctual drive acceptable to both oneself and his or her social setting (Ritchie & Roser, 2018). The status of mental health influences physical health, relationships, and most importantly day-to-day life. Mental health problems arise when there is a disruption in mental well-being.
The risk factors to mental health problems are not limited and therefore everyone is entitled to the problem irrespective of gender, economic status, and ethnic group. For example, data shows that in America one out of five individuals experience mental health problems annually; with mental disorders being recognized as the leading cause of disability not only in the United States but also globally (Ritchie & Roser, 2018). Mental health disorders are seen to be complex and of many forms such as anxiety, mood, and schizophren.

This document discusses the importance of culture in health psychology and healthcare. It covers several key points:
1) Culture influences many aspects of health, including perceptions of health/illness, presentations of problems, and responses to treatment. Provider-patient relationships and cultural misunderstandings can negatively impact health outcomes.
2) Cultural factors can affect disease course, risk, manifestation of symptoms, and response to medications. Studies show some groups metabolize medications like haloperidol and benzodiazepines differently than Caucasians.
3) Microaggressions are common in healthcare settings and are linked to poorer health. Models like culturally-informed functional assessment and explanatory model are discussed to improve culturally-

Research topic
A systematic review of the association between stigma and or on help-seeking among mental health patients.
Research Problem
Stigma or the process of labelling, discrimination and prejudice towards individuals suffering from mental health problems is considered to have numerous adverse consequences compared to the health conditions themselves according to Thornicroft, Mehta, Clement, Evans-Lacko, Doherty, Rose & Henderson, (2016). In addition, research has found stigma to be responsible for the failure of numerous individuals suffering from mental health to seek help from both their close relatives or trusted individuals and from healthcare providers (Clement, Schauman, Graham, Maggioni, Evans-Lacko, Bezborodovs, Thornicroft, 2015).
Given an increase in mental health disorders and the challenges that such disorders pose to both individuals and society, numerous studies have been conducted to examine the association between stigma and help-seeking among mental health patients. However, research has largely focused on the attitudes that constitute stigma towards mental health patients and little on the interventions required to reduce or eradicate stigma. Moreover, since the failure to reduce stigma prevents mental health patients from seeking help and hence worsening their conditions, there is need for further studies regarding the association between stigma and help-seeking and the need to reduce stigma making the study not only relevant but significant.
Research purpose
The purpose of this paper is to explore the association between stigma and help-seeking among mental health patients and to identify proven strategies or actionable recommendation for reducing stigma.
Research objectives
The objective of the study will be to (1) Explore the extent to which stigma posses a barrier to help-seeking among mental health patients, (2) Identify whether stigma affects certain populations more than others and (3) propose strategies that can help reduce stigma.
Research question
The study will aim to answer the following questions (1) What is the association between stigma towards mental health patients and help-seeking? (2) To what extent does stigma constitute a barrier to the search for help among mental health patients and (3) Are there populations that are more deterred from seeking help due to stigma?
Research hypothesis
Ho: Stigma towards mental health patients deters them from seeking help
Ha: There is no association between stigma and the search for help among mental health patients.
In addition, the study hypothesizes that a reduction in stigma would result in increased help-seeking among mental health patients.

Overview: Dr. Marcia Stanhope (2020) explained that evidence-based public health practice refers to those decisions made by using the best available evidence, data and information systems and program frameworks; engaging community stakeholders in the decision-making process; evaluating the results; and then disseminating that information to those who can use the information.
Practicum Discussion: This week, your assignment will be to incorporate all of the information you have gathered from the community—including the population itself, health data, interviews/conversations with interested community members, and your community assessment, including your Windshield Survey—as well as what you have gathered from scholarly literature to propose measureable interventions. Measureable interventions mean that the results can be measured through some data that could be collected (Stanhope, 2020). This requires thinking in terms of actions and then measuring results. An evaluation of interventions is important to see whether or not they are effective in solving a health care problem. Remember, you will need to use the data you gathered to determine whether or not a problem exists in your community and to then determine whether your interventions might be effective.
Please discuss the following points in your Practicum Discussion:
Identify one evidence-based behavior change that would promote health in your selected population.
Suggest one specific culturally sensitive, evidence-based, measureable intervention to address the health problem for your selected population.
Think in terms of measuring outcomes. What outcomes would you expect to see once the intervention(s) are in place? Be specific.

Accommodating Cultural Diversity at the Community Level:
Older Adults in Different Ethnic and Cultural Contexts
This section describes intergroup and intragroup differences in how older adults’ life experiences will shape their responses in seeking health care. Some older adults experienced living through the Depression, seeing the invention of television, computers, and video teleconferences, migrating to find employment, and fighting in an international conflict. European Americans in their 90s may have been young adults fleeing Poland or Germany before World War II. Older Southeast Asian adults in their 60s may have fled Cambodia, Laos, or Vietnam when conflict and political unrest enclosed around them. Political refugees from countries in East Africa and immigrants from Eastern bloc nations who have lived through civil wars and political revolution could well have depleted their coping mechanisms as younger adults fleeing their homeland. As a newer wave of older adult immigrants, they may experience adjustment problems that warrant care in the health and mental health care system, but at the same time they may distrust the system or have no previous experience in seeking health care. Nurses who are providing care to clients whose background differs from their own are usually sensitive to assessing the client’s culture. Individuals who have immigrated from the same country or region will differ in their needs and in the ways that their cultural background influences their health- and illness-related actions. These differences are based on a number of factors:
• Regional or religious identity
• Situation in their homeland that may have prompted them to emigrate
• Length of time they have spent in the United States including degree of acculturation,
• Proximity to immediate family or extended family members, • Network of friends and social support from their homeland, and/or
• Link with ethnic, social, and health-related institutions.
In the total Hispanic American population, persons of Mexican descent are most numerous (54%), Cubans represent 14.

The Stigma of Mental Illness
The Stigma of Mental Illness
The importance of stigma and the lack of mental support has suffered throughout history. Ask yourself, if people with mental issues and the lack of support should change and be accepted into all social norms? Or should they continue to not be supported over something they have no control over? Stigma has been well-defined as undesirable opinions, observations and relations which can cause discrimination according to the Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality, (2014). Mental illness is a syndrome that affects your mood, thought process, actions and present distress in social functions and occupational involvements.
As a result of mental distress, intimidation, brutality and alienation has been known to take place because people feel you may be unstable or dangerous, which is due to the distancing that is the place between each other, in addition to rejection and abandonment their reactions may become negative and sometimes violent in the nature of harming themselves or committing suicide all because of the lack of understanding of what mental illness is and how it affects the individual.
Mental illness stigmatization can also result in a poor understanding amongst family members and as an end result making them feel they are not able to seek treatment, or cure and cause the individual to seek other options when they feel they have no one that can help them understand what’s going on with themselves. These other options include marijuana, alcohol, prescription drugs and cigarettes can be a great start for those people scared to seek help with mental health issues Aviram, R. B., Brodsky, B. S. (2006).
This is where peer support is needed, it is so important for mental health patients to realize they have a sense of belonging and that they are not alone when dealing with their mental health issues. According to the SAMHSA.gov, peer support is one of the strategies that can help you to improve the state of mental health in America. Access to peer support is an effective way of enhancing the quality of life when always understand peer support as any form of assistance that comes from people who share characteristics or experiences relating to things that are in common. For instance, for patients with mental health issues, peer support includes: knowledge, emotional and social assistance that one may get from a person who has the same experiences.
Additionally, mental illness stigmatization can result in insufficient health insurance coverage of mental ailments by organizations. This can include being turned down for job opportunities or recognitions due to their illness. People with emotional disabilities tend to have issues with .
Mental illnesses are highly prevalent worldwide but most countries allocate less than 2% of their health budgets to mental health. Effective and low-cost treatments are available but there is a treatment gap of over 75% in many low- and middle-income countries. Investing in mental health is important for several reasons: the burden of mental illness is huge and costs societies enormous amounts, mental health is essential for economic development, and some interventions have been shown to be highly cost-effective "best buys" that can reduce future health costs. Without adequate investment in mental health services and supports, individuals and societies cannot reach their full potential.
This document discusses how demographics and lifestyle impact consumer behavior and retail strategies. It defines demographics as factors like age, income, gender, etc. that help marketers identify target segments. Lifestyle represents how individuals live and is influenced by culture, family and social class. The VALS system segments consumers into eight groups based on motivations like ideals, achievement or self-expression. Retail implications include adapting to changing gender roles, more sophisticated consumers with less time, and lifestyle becoming less predictable and more individualized. Demographics and lifestyle analysis helps retailers understand customers and develop effective marketing strategies.

Working with Families
1. Effects of a psych educational intervention program on the attitudes and health perceptions of relatives of patients with schizophrenia
The article highlights the importance of both family and relatives to support the victim who has schizophrenia. Moreover, the article goes further and highlights the purpose of the study. The article assesses the effectiveness of a family psych educational program in the different outlook and health insights of the relatives of the patient with suffering from schizophrenia. Various programs aid in supporting both the family and relatives to gain more information about the schizophrenia and how they can best offer support to them.
The psych educational program was efficient in adjusting to the caregivers’ outlooks. Nonetheless, the program did not influence the perceptions of healthcare. Moreover, the family and relative psych educational management program transforms the deleterious approaches of both family and relatives to schizophrenia. On the other hand, not all the agenda of this type may advance health difficulties; otherwise, their consequences might only appear in a long-term condition or situation.
The psycho-educational plan gave an enhancement in the outlooks of families to schizophrenia. Besides, this signifies that they have known how to think, feel, and act, in a positive method in regards to the disorder.
Seeing the unfortunate result of the majority of people who have schizophrenia, the process has made it possible for individuals to discover the influence of psych educational programs, which may aid indirectly or directly to advancing the quality and the course of life of these people and their families. Besides, it is vital to evaluate the efficiency of the agendas in diverse cultures and nations.
2. The Mediating Effect of Family Cohesion in Reducing Patient Symptoms and Family Distress in a Culturally Informed Family Therapy for Schizophrenia: A Parallel-Process Latent-Growth Model
The paper examines whether a CIT-S (Culturally Informed Family Therapy for Schizophrenia outdid the usual family psych education (PSY-ED) by not only in reducing patient schizophrenia signs but also in diminishing a person’s DASS. Since CIT-S nurtured family consistency in therapy; moreover, it is anticipated that an increase in family solidity would facilitate the cure effects.
The procedure permitted individual’s to be fixed in latent-change or latent-growth models to check the treatment impacts and guarantee the model fit was sufficient prior to joining them to parallel-procedure models and investigating the secondary outcomes. The latent-change model is assessing the medication influence on family solidity from standard to average, as shown in a Time Treatment Interaction (TTI). The CIT-S team displayed a natural growth of approximately on.
Biases are known to be ingrained in the human nature. Ironically, the bias starts reflecting in our approach to an individual’s health, even if the sufferer is a loved one, as we give priority to physical health over mental health. Many of the biases regarding mental health are inbuilt or are passed on from one generation to another.

Week 8 Sample Section Example
Written by Jennifer Oddy, Entitled: Distress And Coping of Mothers of Children With Muscular Dystrophy
Sampling Method, Sample, and Setting
Sampling method. The participants will be recruited by criterion purposive sampling by their doctors/nurses at the Muscular Dystrophy Association clinic at Boston Children’s Hospital.
Sample. Inclusion criteria are the following: (1) You are 21 years of age or greater; (2) are the mother of a child with muscular dystrophy; (3) your child is aged between 4 and 17 and was 10 years or younger at their first physical assessment by a primary care provider; (4) you provide roughly 75% or more of the home care for the child.
People will not be eligible for this study if they: (1) have been diagnosed with a mental health disorder (bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or have a physical addiction to drugs or alcohol); (2) if the child is currently residing in a long-term care facility.
The sample size will ideally be about 10 participants. Phenomenological studies tend to rely on very small samples, since there is one guiding principle for selecting the sample: all participants must have experienced the phenomenon and must be able to articulate what it is like to have lived the experience (Polit & Beck, 2012). Data will be collected until saturation is accomplished.
Setting. The proposed setting for this study is at the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) clinic at Boston Children’s Hospital located at 300 Longwood Ave, Boston, MA. There are two directors at the clinic, an orthopedic, and a pediatric neurologist. The team members include a social worker, physical therapist, and a genetic counselor. The number of patients at the clinic cannot be disclosed, however, Boston Children’s Hospital is considered an elite clinic and is included in the MDA network that supports clinical trials and research. The hospital offers the highest level of diagnostic and treatment services, with neurologists and other specialists being very experienced in treating children with muscular dystrophy.
Informed consent and ethical considerations
Before enrolling participants in this study, an informed consent must be signed and approved by an Institutional Review Board (IRB, Appendix A). This will be obtained from the Muscular Dystrophy Association clinic at Boston Children’s Hospital, as well as from Regis College. An application and proposal will be sent to the IRB, requesting approval for this study. Since there is minimal risk to subjects, an expedited review will be requested (Polit & Beck, 2012). There is a risk that the participant may have feelings of discomfort while discussing the experiences of caring for a child with muscular dystrophy. This will be minimized by the researcher with empathy and compassion. If the participant would like counseling, a call will be made to their primary care provider.
There are no foreseen ethical issues involved in this research study. The interviews will be ta ...

Introduction
How well a person is able to live a full life, build and maintain relationships and pursue their education, profession or other pursuits requires them to maintain their well-being ranging from physical to mental health. When assisting others to achieve good and self-motivated changes, social workers draw on their relationship-based abilities and emphasize personalization and rehabilitation. A key issue is, "What components and obstacles of an assessment are there in order to reach these outcomes?" When it comes to health promotion and public involvement, social workers are well-suited for this role since primary care is all about these things. Social workers who deal with mental health have unique challenges in assessment, which necessitates them learning and using psychiatric principles. Identifying the need for mental health care requires an understanding of assessment principles.
For this research, the focus is on urban youth's increase in mental health cases which is more influenced by lack of access to mental health care as a result of poverty that affects many children and families in the US. Young people are the most impacted by poverty, accounting for 33% of the total number of individuals in poverty. Children who live in "high risk neighborhoods" are more likely to lack access to the mental health supports they need to manage their symptoms. Stabilization, individual treatment, and symptom management are all important aspects of aftercare for children who have been hospitalized for behavioral difficulties by the time they are six years old (Hodgkinson, 2017).

Grant Proposal-Assessing the role of stigma towards mental health patients in help seeking
Study problem
There are several studies that have shown that stigmatization towards mental health patients have been present throughout history and even despite the evolution in modern medicine and advanced treatment. For example, Verhaeghe et al., (2014), captures in a publication in reference to a study that he conducted that stigmatization towards mental health patients has been there even as early is in the 18th Century. People were hesitant to interact with people termed or perceived to have mental health conditions.
Stigmatization has resulted from the belief that those with mental problem are aggressive and dangerous creating a social distance (Szeto et al., 2017). Also, mental health-related stigma has become of major concern as it creates crucial barriers to access treatment and quality care since it not only influences the behaviour of the patients but also the attitude of the providers hence impacting help-seeking. Timmermann, Uhrenfeldt and Birkelund (2014), have identified stigma as a barrier that is of significance to care or help seeking while the extent to which it still remains a barrier have not been reviewed deeply. Therefore, this study will assess the role contributed by stigma in help seeking in depth. 1. Purpose
The intention of the research study is to review the association between stigma, mental illness and help seeking in order to formulate ways in which the stigma that is around mental health is done away with to enable as many people suffering from mental health complications to seek medical help.2. Background
Mental health is crucial in every stage of life. It is defined as the state of psychological well-being whereby the individual realizes a satisfactory integration instinctual drive acceptable to both oneself and his or her social setting (Ritchie & Roser, 2018). The status of mental health influences physical health, relationships, and most importantly day-to-day life. Mental health problems arise when there is a disruption in mental well-being.
The risk factors to mental health problems are not limited and therefore everyone is entitled to the problem irrespective of gender, economic status, and ethnic group. For example, data shows that in America one out of five individuals experience mental health problems annually; with mental disorders being recognized as the leading cause of disability not only in the United States but also globally (Ritchie & Roser, 2018). Mental health disorders are seen to be complex and of many forms such as anxiety, mood, and schizophren.

This document discusses the importance of culture in health psychology and healthcare. It covers several key points:
1) Culture influences many aspects of health, including perceptions of health/illness, presentations of problems, and responses to treatment. Provider-patient relationships and cultural misunderstandings can negatively impact health outcomes.
2) Cultural factors can affect disease course, risk, manifestation of symptoms, and response to medications. Studies show some groups metabolize medications like haloperidol and benzodiazepines differently than Caucasians.
3) Microaggressions are common in healthcare settings and are linked to poorer health. Models like culturally-informed functional assessment and explanatory model are discussed to improve culturally-

Research topic
A systematic review of the association between stigma and or on help-seeking among mental health patients.
Research Problem
Stigma or the process of labelling, discrimination and prejudice towards individuals suffering from mental health problems is considered to have numerous adverse consequences compared to the health conditions themselves according to Thornicroft, Mehta, Clement, Evans-Lacko, Doherty, Rose & Henderson, (2016). In addition, research has found stigma to be responsible for the failure of numerous individuals suffering from mental health to seek help from both their close relatives or trusted individuals and from healthcare providers (Clement, Schauman, Graham, Maggioni, Evans-Lacko, Bezborodovs, Thornicroft, 2015).
Given an increase in mental health disorders and the challenges that such disorders pose to both individuals and society, numerous studies have been conducted to examine the association between stigma and help-seeking among mental health patients. However, research has largely focused on the attitudes that constitute stigma towards mental health patients and little on the interventions required to reduce or eradicate stigma. Moreover, since the failure to reduce stigma prevents mental health patients from seeking help and hence worsening their conditions, there is need for further studies regarding the association between stigma and help-seeking and the need to reduce stigma making the study not only relevant but significant.
Research purpose
The purpose of this paper is to explore the association between stigma and help-seeking among mental health patients and to identify proven strategies or actionable recommendation for reducing stigma.
Research objectives
The objective of the study will be to (1) Explore the extent to which stigma posses a barrier to help-seeking among mental health patients, (2) Identify whether stigma affects certain populations more than others and (3) propose strategies that can help reduce stigma.
Research question
The study will aim to answer the following questions (1) What is the association between stigma towards mental health patients and help-seeking? (2) To what extent does stigma constitute a barrier to the search for help among mental health patients and (3) Are there populations that are more deterred from seeking help due to stigma?
Research hypothesis
Ho: Stigma towards mental health patients deters them from seeking help
Ha: There is no association between stigma and the search for help among mental health patients.
In addition, the study hypothesizes that a reduction in stigma would result in increased help-seeking among mental health patients.

Overview: Dr. Marcia Stanhope (2020) explained that evidence-based public health practice refers to those decisions made by using the best available evidence, data and information systems and program frameworks; engaging community stakeholders in the decision-making process; evaluating the results; and then disseminating that information to those who can use the information.
Practicum Discussion: This week, your assignment will be to incorporate all of the information you have gathered from the community—including the population itself, health data, interviews/conversations with interested community members, and your community assessment, including your Windshield Survey—as well as what you have gathered from scholarly literature to propose measureable interventions. Measureable interventions mean that the results can be measured through some data that could be collected (Stanhope, 2020). This requires thinking in terms of actions and then measuring results. An evaluation of interventions is important to see whether or not they are effective in solving a health care problem. Remember, you will need to use the data you gathered to determine whether or not a problem exists in your community and to then determine whether your interventions might be effective.
Please discuss the following points in your Practicum Discussion:
Identify one evidence-based behavior change that would promote health in your selected population.
Suggest one specific culturally sensitive, evidence-based, measureable intervention to address the health problem for your selected population.
Think in terms of measuring outcomes. What outcomes would you expect to see once the intervention(s) are in place? Be specific.

Accommodating Cultural Diversity at the Community Level:
Older Adults in Different Ethnic and Cultural Contexts
This section describes intergroup and intragroup differences in how older adults’ life experiences will shape their responses in seeking health care. Some older adults experienced living through the Depression, seeing the invention of television, computers, and video teleconferences, migrating to find employment, and fighting in an international conflict. European Americans in their 90s may have been young adults fleeing Poland or Germany before World War II. Older Southeast Asian adults in their 60s may have fled Cambodia, Laos, or Vietnam when conflict and political unrest enclosed around them. Political refugees from countries in East Africa and immigrants from Eastern bloc nations who have lived through civil wars and political revolution could well have depleted their coping mechanisms as younger adults fleeing their homeland. As a newer wave of older adult immigrants, they may experience adjustment problems that warrant care in the health and mental health care system, but at the same time they may distrust the system or have no previous experience in seeking health care. Nurses who are providing care to clients whose background differs from their own are usually sensitive to assessing the client’s culture. Individuals who have immigrated from the same country or region will differ in their needs and in the ways that their cultural background influences their health- and illness-related actions. These differences are based on a number of factors:
• Regional or religious identity
• Situation in their homeland that may have prompted them to emigrate
• Length of time they have spent in the United States including degree of acculturation,
• Proximity to immediate family or extended family members, • Network of friends and social support from their homeland, and/or
• Link with ethnic, social, and health-related institutions.
In the total Hispanic American population, persons of Mexican descent are most numerous (54%), Cubans represent 14.

The Stigma of Mental Illness
The Stigma of Mental Illness
The importance of stigma and the lack of mental support has suffered throughout history. Ask yourself, if people with mental issues and the lack of support should change and be accepted into all social norms? Or should they continue to not be supported over something they have no control over? Stigma has been well-defined as undesirable opinions, observations and relations which can cause discrimination according to the Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality, (2014). Mental illness is a syndrome that affects your mood, thought process, actions and present distress in social functions and occupational involvements.
As a result of mental distress, intimidation, brutality and alienation has been known to take place because people feel you may be unstable or dangerous, which is due to the distancing that is the place between each other, in addition to rejection and abandonment their reactions may become negative and sometimes violent in the nature of harming themselves or committing suicide all because of the lack of understanding of what mental illness is and how it affects the individual.
Mental illness stigmatization can also result in a poor understanding amongst family members and as an end result making them feel they are not able to seek treatment, or cure and cause the individual to seek other options when they feel they have no one that can help them understand what’s going on with themselves. These other options include marijuana, alcohol, prescription drugs and cigarettes can be a great start for those people scared to seek help with mental health issues Aviram, R. B., Brodsky, B. S. (2006).
This is where peer support is needed, it is so important for mental health patients to realize they have a sense of belonging and that they are not alone when dealing with their mental health issues. According to the SAMHSA.gov, peer support is one of the strategies that can help you to improve the state of mental health in America. Access to peer support is an effective way of enhancing the quality of life when always understand peer support as any form of assistance that comes from people who share characteristics or experiences relating to things that are in common. For instance, for patients with mental health issues, peer support includes: knowledge, emotional and social assistance that one may get from a person who has the same experiences.
Additionally, mental illness stigmatization can result in insufficient health insurance coverage of mental ailments by organizations. This can include being turned down for job opportunities or recognitions due to their illness. People with emotional disabilities tend to have issues with .
Mental illnesses are highly prevalent worldwide but most countries allocate less than 2% of their health budgets to mental health. Effective and low-cost treatments are available but there is a treatment gap of over 75% in many low- and middle-income countries. Investing in mental health is important for several reasons: the burden of mental illness is huge and costs societies enormous amounts, mental health is essential for economic development, and some interventions have been shown to be highly cost-effective "best buys" that can reduce future health costs. Without adequate investment in mental health services and supports, individuals and societies cannot reach their full potential.

Working with Families
1. Effects of a psych educational intervention program on the attitudes and health perceptions of relatives of patients with schizophrenia
The article highlights the importance of both family and relatives to support the victim who has schizophrenia. Moreover, the article goes further and highlights the purpose of the study. The article assesses the effectiveness of a family psych educational program in the different outlook and health insights of the relatives of the patient with suffering from schizophrenia. Various programs aid in supporting both the family and relatives to gain more information about the schizophrenia and how they can best offer support to them.
The psych educational program was efficient in adjusting to the caregivers’ outlooks. Nonetheless, the program did not influence the perceptions of healthcare. Moreover, the family and relative psych educational management program transforms the deleterious approaches of both family and relatives to schizophrenia. On the other hand, not all the agenda of this type may advance health difficulties; otherwise, their consequences might only appear in a long-term condition or situation.
The psycho-educational plan gave an enhancement in the outlooks of families to schizophrenia. Besides, this signifies that they have known how to think, feel, and act, in a positive method in regards to the disorder.
Seeing the unfortunate result of the majority of people who have schizophrenia, the process has made it possible for individuals to discover the influence of psych educational programs, which may aid indirectly or directly to advancing the quality and the course of life of these people and their families. Besides, it is vital to evaluate the efficiency of the agendas in diverse cultures and nations.
2. The Mediating Effect of Family Cohesion in Reducing Patient Symptoms and Family Distress in a Culturally Informed Family Therapy for Schizophrenia: A Parallel-Process Latent-Growth Model
The paper examines whether a CIT-S (Culturally Informed Family Therapy for Schizophrenia outdid the usual family psych education (PSY-ED) by not only in reducing patient schizophrenia signs but also in diminishing a person’s DASS. Since CIT-S nurtured family consistency in therapy; moreover, it is anticipated that an increase in family solidity would facilitate the cure effects.
The procedure permitted individual’s to be fixed in latent-change or latent-growth models to check the treatment impacts and guarantee the model fit was sufficient prior to joining them to parallel-procedure models and investigating the secondary outcomes. The latent-change model is assessing the medication influence on family solidity from standard to average, as shown in a Time Treatment Interaction (TTI). The CIT-S team displayed a natural growth of approximately on.
Biases are known to be ingrained in the human nature. Ironically, the bias starts reflecting in our approach to an individual’s health, even if the sufferer is a loved one, as we give priority to physical health over mental health. Many of the biases regarding mental health are inbuilt or are passed on from one generation to another.

Week 8 Sample Section Example
Written by Jennifer Oddy, Entitled: Distress And Coping of Mothers of Children With Muscular Dystrophy
Sampling Method, Sample, and Setting
Sampling method. The participants will be recruited by criterion purposive sampling by their doctors/nurses at the Muscular Dystrophy Association clinic at Boston Children’s Hospital.
Sample. Inclusion criteria are the following: (1) You are 21 years of age or greater; (2) are the mother of a child with muscular dystrophy; (3) your child is aged between 4 and 17 and was 10 years or younger at their first physical assessment by a primary care provider; (4) you provide roughly 75% or more of the home care for the child.
People will not be eligible for this study if they: (1) have been diagnosed with a mental health disorder (bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or have a physical addiction to drugs or alcohol); (2) if the child is currently residing in a long-term care facility.
The sample size will ideally be about 10 participants. Phenomenological studies tend to rely on very small samples, since there is one guiding principle for selecting the sample: all participants must have experienced the phenomenon and must be able to articulate what it is like to have lived the experience (Polit & Beck, 2012). Data will be collected until saturation is accomplished.
Setting. The proposed setting for this study is at the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) clinic at Boston Children’s Hospital located at 300 Longwood Ave, Boston, MA. There are two directors at the clinic, an orthopedic, and a pediatric neurologist. The team members include a social worker, physical therapist, and a genetic counselor. The number of patients at the clinic cannot be disclosed, however, Boston Children’s Hospital is considered an elite clinic and is included in the MDA network that supports clinical trials and research. The hospital offers the highest level of diagnostic and treatment services, with neurologists and other specialists being very experienced in treating children with muscular dystrophy.
Informed consent and ethical considerations
Before enrolling participants in this study, an informed consent must be signed and approved by an Institutional Review Board (IRB, Appendix A). This will be obtained from the Muscular Dystrophy Association clinic at Boston Children’s Hospital, as well as from Regis College. An application and proposal will be sent to the IRB, requesting approval for this study. Since there is minimal risk to subjects, an expedited review will be requested (Polit & Beck, 2012). There is a risk that the participant may have feelings of discomfort while discussing the experiences of caring for a child with muscular dystrophy. This will be minimized by the researcher with empathy and compassion. If the participant would like counseling, a call will be made to their primary care provider.
There are no foreseen ethical issues involved in this research study. The interviews will be ta ...

Corporate innovation with Startups made simple with Pitchworks VC StudioGokul Rangarajan
In this write up we will talk about why corporates need to innovate, why most of them of failing and need to startups and corporate start collaborating with each other for survival
At the end of the conversation the CIO asked us 3 questions which sparked us to write this blog.
1 Do my organisation need innovation ?
2 Even if I need Innovation why are so many other corporates of our size fail in innovation ?
3 How can I test it in most cost effective way ?
First let's address the Elephant in the room, is Innovation optional ?
Relevance for customers
Building Business Reslience
competitive advantage
Corporate innovation is essential for businesses striving to remain relevant and competitive in today's rapidly evolving market. By continuously developing new products, services, and processes, companies can better meet the changing needs and preferences of their customers. For instance, Apple's regular release of new iPhone models keeps them at the forefront of consumer technology, while Amazon's introduction of Prime services has revolutionized online shopping convenience. Statistics show that innovative companies are 2.5 times more likely to have high-performance outcomes compared to their peers.
This proactive approach not only helps in retaining existing customers but also attracts new ones, ensuring sustained growth and market presence.
Furthermore, innovation fosters a culture of creativity and adaptability within organizations, enabling them to quickly respond to emerging trends and disruptions. In essence, corporate innovation is the driving force that keeps companies aligned with customer expectations, ultimately leading to long-term success and relevance.
Business Resilience
Building business resilience is paramount for companies looking to thrive amidst uncertainties and disruptions. Corporate innovation plays a crucial role in fostering this resilience by enabling businesses to adapt, evolve, and maintain continuity during challenging times. For instance, during the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies that swiftly innovated their business models, such as shifting to remote work or expanding e-commerce capabilities, managed to survive and even thrive. According to a McKinsey report, organizations that prioritize innovation are 30% more likely to be high-growth companies. Innovation not only helps in developing new revenue streams but also in creating more efficient processes and resilient supply chains. This agility allows companies to quickly pivot in response to market changes, ensuring they can weather economic downturns, technological disruptions, and other unforeseen challenges. Therefore, corporate innovation is not just a strategy for growth but a vital component of building a robust and resilient business capable of sustaining long-term success.

Addiction to Winning Across Diverse Populations.pdf
1. Addiction to Winning Across Diverse
Populations
By: Marsh
April 24, 2024
Abstract
Addiction to winning is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that affects individuals across
various demographics and social contexts. This paper explores the psychological, social, and
cultural dimensions of this addiction, examining how different populations are influenced by and
cope with the drive to succeed. Through a comprehensive analysis of existing literature and
data, we investigate the commonalities and differences in how addiction to winning manifests in
diverse groups. The paper concludes with a discussion on the implications for mental health and
strategies for managing this addiction in a healthy manner.
Introduction
Addiction to winning is an intense, often uncontrollable drive to achieve victory, which can have
profound impacts on an individual’s mental health and social relationships. This phenomenon is
not confined to a specific demographic; rather, it spans across various ages, genders, cultural
backgrounds, and socio-economic statuses. Understanding the nuances of this addiction
requires an interdisciplinary approach, incorporating insights from psychology, sociology, and
cultural studies.
The allure of winning is deeply ingrained in many cultures, often associated with personal worth
and societal status. For some, the pursuit of victory becomes an obsession, leading to
behaviors that are detrimental to their well-being. This paper aims to explore how addiction to
winning differs among diverse populations, highlighting the psychological mechanisms and
social pressures that contribute to this behavior.
In examining addiction to winning, it is crucial to recognize the role of both intrinsic and extrinsic
motivators. Intrinsic motivation refers to the personal satisfaction and joy derived from winning,
while extrinsic motivation involves external rewards such as money, fame, or approval from
others. The interplay between these motivators varies across different populations, influencing
how individuals experience and cope with the desire to win.
Data Analysis
2. To understand the addiction to winning across diverse populations, a detailed analysis of
quantitative and qualitative data is essential. This section delves into various studies and
surveys that provide insight into the prevalence and impact of this addiction among different
demographic groups.
Psychological Dimensions
Research indicates that the psychological factors driving addiction to winning include a need for
self-validation, a fear of failure, and the pursuit of perfectionism. Studies have shown that
individuals with high levels of competitiveness are more likely to develop an addiction to
winning. For instance, a survey conducted among professional athletes revealed that a
significant percentage experience anxiety and depression related to their performance,
indicating a strong link between mental health issues and the pressure to win.
Social and Cultural Influences
Social and cultural factors play a significant role in shaping attitudes towards winning. In
cultures that highly value competition and success, individuals may feel greater pressure to
achieve victory. For example, in many Western societies, success is often equated with
personal worth, leading to a greater emphasis on winning in sports, academics, and
professional life. Conversely, in some Eastern cultures, the collective achievement and harmony
are prioritized, which can mitigate the intense personal drive to win but still create pressures
related to group success.
Demographic Variations
The addiction to winning also varies significantly across different demographic groups. Gender
differences are evident, with studies suggesting that men are generally more driven by
competitiveness than women, potentially leading to a higher prevalence of addiction to winning
among males. However, this gap is narrowing as societal norms evolve. Additionally, age plays
a role, with younger individuals often exhibiting more intense competitive behaviors due to
developmental factors and peer influence.
Conclusion
Addiction to winning is a pervasive issue that transcends demographic boundaries, affecting
individuals across various cultural and social contexts. The psychological need for validation,
societal pressures, and cultural values all contribute to this phenomenon. Recognizing the
diverse factors that influence addiction to winning is essential for developing effective
interventions and support systems.
Implications for Mental Health
3. Understanding addiction to winning is crucial for addressing its mental health implications.
Chronic stress, anxiety, and depression are common among individuals who are excessively
driven to win. Mental health professionals must be equipped to identify and treat these issues,
providing support that addresses both the psychological and social dimensions of the addiction.
Strategies for Management
Effective management of addiction to winning involves a combination of personal and societal
strategies. On a personal level, individuals can benefit from cognitive-behavioral techniques that
help reframe their attitudes towards success and failure. On a societal level, promoting values
such as collaboration and resilience can help mitigate the pressures associated with winning.
Future Research Directions
Further research is needed to explore the nuances of addiction to winning across diverse
populations. Longitudinal studies could provide deeper insights into how this addiction develops
and evolves over time. Additionally, examining the impact of digital media and online
competition on addiction to winning could offer valuable perspectives, given the increasing
prevalence of virtual environments where individuals strive for success.
In conclusion, addiction to winning is a multifaceted issue that requires a comprehensive
understanding of its psychological, social, and cultural dimensions. By addressing these factors,
we can better support individuals in managing their drive to win in a healthy and balanced
manner.
