Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asian Americans are the fastest-growing racial/ethnic group in the United States. Asians who have a diagnosis of mental illness are noted to present with severe psychiatric symptoms during inpatient hospitalization which can be resulted from barriers to mental health services or counseling. Stigma is an important barrier to recovery from any mental health disorders. There are limited studies in the United States examining attitudes toward mental illness among Asians. This grant proposal outlines a research study examining attitudes toward mental illness among Asian college students, potential grant funding, and plan for dissemination of the findings. This study is significant to nursing since increased knowledge is needed regarding the Asian American population and what their attitudes are towards the mentally ill. The study findings may better inform the Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner how to engage and treat this population.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stigma continues to play an integral role in the multifaceted issues facing mental health. While identifying a clear operational definition of stigma has been a challenge in the field, the issues related to stigma grossly affect not only the mental health population but society as a whole. Deconstructing Stigma in Mental Health provides emerging research on issues related to stigma as a whole including ignorance, prejudice, and discrimination. While highlighting issues such as stigma and its role in mental health and how stigma is perpetuated in society, this publication explores the historical context of stigma, current issues and resolutions through intersectional collaboration, and the deconstruction of mental health stigmas. This book is a valuable resource for mental health administrators and clinicians, researchers, educators, policy makers, and psychology professionals seeking information on current mental health stigma trends.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book makes a highly innovative contribution to overcoming the stigma and discrimination associated with mental illness – still the heaviest burden both for those afflicted and those caring for them. The scene is set by the presentation of different fundamental perspectives on the problem of stigma and discrimination by researchers, consumers, families, and human rights experts. Current knowledge and practice used in reducing stigma are then described, with information on the programmes adopted across the world and their utility, feasibility, and effectiveness. The core of the volume comprises descriptions of new approaches and innovative programmes specifically designed to overcome stigma and discrimination. In the closing part of the book, the editors – all respected experts in the field – summarize some of the most important evidence- and experience-based recommendations for future action to successfully rewrite the long and burdensome ‘story’ of mental illness stigma and discrimination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite prevalence rates of mental illness comparable to other ethnic groups, the Asian American population underutilizes psychological services. In 2001, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services made it their priority to work toward eliminating mental health disparities, reducing barriers, and improving access to mental health treatment. Unfortunately in 2012, Sue, Cheng, Saad, and Chu reported little progress in eliminating disparities in access to mental health services for the Asian American population. Their report concluded that the role of acculturation-related factors related to help-seeking attitudes requires further research. The current study used a meta-analytic methodology to investigate acculturation and enculturation-related factors that may be related with help-seeking attitudes. This meta-analytic approach is of particular significance, as the overall magnitude of the relationship between acculturation help-seeking attitudes has been inconsistent in existing research. This study examined the relationship of the predictor variables: acculturation and enculturation, with the outcome variable, help-seeking attitudes. Results indicated a minimal relationship between acculturation and help-seeking attitudes. Ethnic subgroup differences were identified which may account for the heterogeneity of the relationship between acculturation and help-seeking attitudes in prior research. Results also indicated a significant negative relationship between enculturation and help-seeking attitudes. The enculturation-related variables of stigma toward mental health, loss of face, and filial piety were negatively correlated with help-seeking attitudes. Enculturation did not moderate the relationship between acculturation and help-seeking attitudes suggesting a bilinear process of acculturation. Additionally, generational status was a significant predictor of help-seeking attitudes. These findings may prove to be important targets for outreach intervention efforts aimed at increasing psychological help-seeking attitudes among Asian Americans. Implications, limitations, and future directions for research are discussed. Keywords : Asian American, acculturation, enculturation, help-seeking attitudes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has two objectives: to show that the research does not support the belief that Asians in the United States are well adjusted, and therefore, do not need mental health services; and, to show the effects of cultural differences between Americans and Asians in the recognition and treatment of mental health problems. The book has eight chapters which discuss the following subjects: why Asian Americans should be studied; patterns of disturbance and use of mental health services; cultural issues in recognizing symptoms and identifying disturbed persons; the Asian American family; personality, sex-role conflicts and ethnic identity; improving intervention and treatment; and future directions for Asian American mental health. In each chapter the author reviews and criticizes the research to date these subjects. The author's conclusions include: 1) the rate of mental disorders among Asian Americans has been underestimated; 2) the expression of symptoms is influenced by culture; and 3) the Asian American family has both positive and negative effects on mental health. While the author only briefly mentions the special problems of Asian American refugees, the mental health issues discussed in the book are applicable to all Asian American immigrants, including refugees.
