Latinx college students are at an elevated risk for mental health problems, such as suicide ideation and behaviors, and there is an urgent need to understand the factors that most influence help-seeking in this population. This study aimed to understand how factors such as help-seeking intentions, suicide literacy, perceived need for help and levels of acculturation relate to help-seeking behaviors, as well as how these associations differed between formal and online sources of help among Latinx college students. Furthermore, this study assessed whether these relationships were moderated by an individual’s level of acculturation. The current study capitalized on data collected as part of a larger survey of college students’ (n=858) mental health at a public university. Hierarchical logistic regression analyses were conducted to test the study hypotheses. Perceived need for help was the most robust predictor of help-seeking behaviors. Notable differences emerged between correlates of formal and online help-seeking behaviors among high-risk and low-risk Latinx students. Clinical implications and future directions for research are also discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First-generation Latino/a college students often experience unique challenges that can adversely impact their academic persistence and educational attainment. However, students' attitudes towards help-seeking and use of institutional support services can have a positive effect on college adjustment and academic success. This study examines how help-seeking attitudes (instrumental, executive, avoidance, and informal sources) and use of institutional support services are related to academic performance (self-efficacy and academic stress). Participants included college students who completed an online survey. It is hypothesized that Latino first-generation college students will be more likely to endorse avoidance of help-seeking and informal help-seeking, as compared to executive or instrumental help-seeking. It is also expected that first-generation Latino/a college students who hold positive attitudes towards help-seeking (instrumental and executive help-seeking) will utilize more institutional support services and experience higher self-efficacy and lower academic stress. These results have implications for the best optimize academic support services for this population of students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Counselors and educators are advocates for understanding ourselves, multiculturalism, and diversity in a societal climate of division. Provided the recent political coup and exclusion ideology, Latino Male students are marginalized because of cultural identity (Machismo) and cultural values. Due to the controversial nature of Machismo, masculinity, and language with Latino Males, multicultural educators are constantly silenced in universities by political correctness and censorship. Specifically, Latino Males are a direct target for incidences of racism, microaggressions, and oppression in our society. Colleges, universities, and counseling field has been moving forward slowly in its scope of “inclusion advocacy” for Latino Male students. There is a dearth in the empirical research on Latino Male experiences of otherness, indifference, and exclusion. The proposed textbook will establish viable, strategies to deepen cultural competence and inclusion advocacy. A competent framework for engagement is desperately needed in areas of inclusion, advocacy, and social justice for Latino Males. The convergence of sociopolitical views on diverse relationships has ignited an era of unrest, exclusion ideology, and remnants of mental distress and trauma in Latino communities. The textbook/reader will specifically address the issues of Latino Male Machismo in colleges and universities. The authors will produce a variety of important readings (chapters) about Latino Male students, Otherness, and strategies for cultural inclusion of identity, values, and practices. The potential contributions from this research will provide a foundation for implementing innovative, inclusion programs for Latinx students as well. To further add content, critical incidences of bias, discrimination, otherness, and exclusion will be addressed in a manner that promotes a new form of connectedness for Latino Males in colleges and universities. The intended audience for this textbook/reader are counselor educators, student affairs professionals, counselors, and university counselors.

Book excerpt: This research study examined the impact of civic engagement and acculturation on the help-seeking behaviors of Latinx individuals living in the United States as well as examine civic engagement as a mediator between acculturation and help-seeking behavior. The likelihood of engaging in help-seeking behaviors is related to race and inversely related to acculturation, with White individuals and more acculturated Latinx individuals engaged in more help-seeking behaviors than less acculturated Latinx individuals (Sabina, Cuevas, & Schally, 2012b). Civic engagement entails a similar process as acculturation by forming social networks within a community and is typically less present in the Latinx community. A demographic form created by the researcher, the Acculturation Rating Scale for Mexican Americans-II, Civic Engagement Scale, the Digital Citizenship Scale, the researcher-created Informal Help-Seeking Questionnaire, and the Attitudes Towards Seeking Professional Psychological Help were administered through an online survey in PsychData. Ninety participants completed the survey of whom 90% identified as women and 10% identified as men. A series of regression analyses was used to analyze the hypotheses on acculturation, civic engagement, and help-seeking behaviors. Based on the results, it appeared that there is no significant positive relationship between acculturation and help-seeking behaviors for Latinx individuals. Civic engagement and acculturation did not appear to have a statistically significant positive relationship therefore, civic engagement was not shown to be a mediator in the relationship between acculturation and help-seeking behaviors. Limitations and implications for theory, research, and practice are discussed.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latinos who qualify for Deferred Action Childhood Arrival (DACA) and currently attend institutions of higher education are a unique subset of this population in the United States. The current literature focuses on all Latino DACA whether in or out of college, recipients' experiences of discrimination and its impact on their mental health, and their lack of healthcare access: However, literature solely focusing on Latino collegiate DACA recipients is limited. Moreover, Latino collegiate DACA recipients have greater access to health care and health services through their universities, unlike non- collegiate DACA recipients. This dissertation proposes to study the how experiences of discrimination and microaggression affect help seeking behavior and utilization of mental health services of Latino DACA college students. Online survey will be sent to Latino students born in the United States and Latino DACA students to compare experiences of discrimination and its effects on mental health help seeking behavior and/or utilization of mental health services in both groups. Online survey data will be analyzed to measure if the observed Latino DACA collegiate students use of mental health services differ from the Latino college students born in the U.S. Logistic regression and linear regression. The difference in effect of experiences of discrimination on help-seeking and utilization of mental health services of Latino DACA college students compared to Latino college students born in the United States will also be analyzed. Phenomenological study interviews will be conducted with 30 Latino DACA students who had taken the previous online survey to analyze their experiences with discrimination and their mental health help seeking behavior and/or utilization of mental health services. These interviews will be collected and analyzed using thematic analysis to draw out key themes related to experiencing discrimination and mental health help-seeking behavior. Looking at the experiences of discrimination of DACA college students and how it affects their mental health help-seeking behavior is important to study in order to better address future research, policy making, and health access decisions.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study sought to understand why college students of Mexican origin underutilize mental health services (i.e., university counseling services). Previous research has identified several potential reasons for the underutilization of mental health services by Mexican Americans. These reasons can be grouped into one of three categories: (1) negative attitudes toward mental illness and mental health services, (2) greater use of alternative, informal resources, and (3) barriers. To examine these factors in the context of help-seeking behavior, Ajzen's theory of planned behavior (TPB) was used. The TPB assumes that the best predictor of a certain behavior is an individual's intention to perform that specific behavior. This model includes three determinants of the intent to perform a certain behavior: (1) attitudes toward the behavior, (2) subjective normative beliefs about performing the behavior, and (3) perceived behavioral control of performing the behavior. The primary aim of this study was to examine the meditating effects of culture on the TPB and investigate the unique factors contributing to help-seeking behavior in college students of Mexican origin reporting anxious and/or depressive symptoms. Results showed that the TPB was effective in predicting help-seeking behavior, with attitudes and subjective normative beliefs as the strongest predictors. Acculturation and cultural values did not mediate the TPB model as originally predicted, however the TPB determinants differed in predictability between help-seekers and non help-seekers. Specifically, among help-seekers, attitudes predicted intent to seek psychological services; among non help-seekers, subjective normative beliefs predicted intent. Help-seekers also reported more ease than non help-seekers on a few of the steps toward help-seeking. Lastly, qualitative measures supported findings based on the TPB and provided additional support for the strong stigmatizing views among college students of Mexican origin. These findings suggest that non help-seekers are a complex group and other variables, such as acculturative stress, perceived social support, and screening participants on perceived symptom distress and impairment, need to be addressed. In addition, subjective normative beliefs need to be considered in the development of psychoeducational interventions which encourage seeking psychological services for individuals of Mexican origin experiencing significant anxious or depressive symptoms.

Book excerpt: On a national scale Latinos are the fastest growing segment of the population, and in the state of Texas the Hispanic population is projected to eclipse non-Hispanic whites as the largest race or ethnic group within the next decade. However, today we are experiencing a growing gender gap in academic achievement across the P-16 educational continuum. In fact, compared to their Latina peers, Latino males are more likely to repeat a grade, be suspended and expelled, placed in special education, diagnosed as ADHD, and drop out or be pushed out of school. Additionally, Latino males' continue to be underrepresented in U.S. institutions of higher education participation and completion rates. Previous literature demonstrates how cultural, social, and psychological factors have impacted the college experiences of Latino students. However, only recently has there emerged literature that takes into account the distinctive experiences of Latino males in college. This qualitative study specifically examined how twelve Latino male students experienced help-seeking at two North Texas community college campuses, using the Model for College Students' Help-Seeking Experiences, which takes into account Achievement Goal Theory (motivation), Attribution Theory (academic-control), and Help-Avoidance (basis for avoiding help-seeking) as tools of analysis. The primary data collection sources included demographic information form, semi-structured face-to-face interviews, documents and artifacts, analytical and reflective memos, and observation field notes. The findings of this study revealed differing motivational factors for achievement related behavior, high sense of perceived academiccontrol, as well as means for avoiding help-seeking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Latino/as make up the largest ethnic minority group in the United States, research pertaining to their lived experiences is not proportional; this is especially true regarding their mental health service utilization rates, experiences, and barriers experienced when accessing such services. Specifically, understanding help seeking behaviors among the Latino/a community as it pertains to their intentions to seek counseling is an understudied area of research that warrants attention. As such, the purpose of the current study was to examine the roles of gender, generational level to the United States, stigma, attitudes towards counseling, and acculturation regarding intentions to seek counseling within an adult Latino/a community sample. Prior to conducting the main study, a small pilot study was implemented to ensure study materials in English and Spanish were comparable and translated properly. This included engaging a translation and back translation process for the scales that made up the questionnaire for the present study. After completion of the pilot study, analyses for the main study were conducted as follows. First, a series of mediation analyses examined (1) the relationship between acculturation and intentions to seek counseling when considering the potential influence of attitudes towards counseling (2) the relationship between attitudes towards and intentions to seek counseling when considering the potential influence of stigma. Next, moderation analyses explored the association between attitudes towards and intentions to seek counseling when considering the role of generational level and gender. Lastly, differences in intentionality to seek counseling were investigated based on participants' generational level and gender identification. Results revealed stigma as a partial mediator to the relationship between attitudes towards and intentions to seek counseling. Further, gender moderated the relationship between attitudes towards counseling and stigma. Lastly, second-generation plus Latino/as and those that identified as female endorsed higher levels of intentions to seek counseling. Through the implementation of this study, the primary researcher recommends engaging in culturally-informed recruitment and data collection methods to increase Latino/a participant involvement. Also, findings from this study provide a catalyst for mental health professionals to attend to the nuanced lived experiences of Latino/a community members when engaging them in clinical settings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite similar rates of mental illness, non-Latinx Whites received care at higher rates compared to Latinxs (NIMH, 2019). Unequal service use may be associated with higher stigma and lower mental health literacy (MHL) among Latinxs (Benuto et al., 2019). The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of mental health videos on reducing stigma and increasing mental health literacy (MHL) and help-seeking intentions among Latinx individuals. Non-college Latinx individuals viewed one of four videos (i.e., roundtable discussion, educational, narrative, and a control-health related video) and completed a depression literacy, depression stigma, and a mental help-seeking scale measure prior to and following the video demonstration. We predicted that: H1) the roundtable discussion and narrative video would demonstrate the highest stigma decrease, H2) the educational video will have the highest MHL increase, H3) the roundtable discussion and narrative video would demonstrate the highest help-seeking intention increase. We also predicted a reduction in stigma and an increase in depression literacy would increase help-seeking intentions. Although results did not support our hypotheses, we did find that education videos outperformed the narrative and control video in increasing depression literacy. Findings will inform the development of future mental health awareness videos informed by and intended for a Latinx audience. This in turn may serve to increase access and active engagement in evidence-based mental health service.

Book excerpt: This handbook describes ways in which society shapes the mental health of its members, and shapes the lives of those who have been identified as mentally ill. The text explores the social conditions that lead to behaviors defined as mental illness, and the ways in which the concept of mental illness is socially constructed around those behaviors. The book also reviews research that examines socially conditioned responses to mental illness on the part of individuals and institutions, and ways in which these responses affect persons with mental illness. It evaluates where the field has been, identifies its current location and plots a course for the future.

This book was released on 2021-03-05 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student wellbeing is foundational to academic success. One recent survey of postsecondary educators found that nearly 80 percent believed emotional wellbeing is a "very" or "extremely" important factor in student success. Studies have found the dropout rates for students with a diagnosed mental health problem range from 43 percent to as high as 86 percent. While dealing with stress is a normal part of life, for some students, stress can adversely affect their physical, emotional, and psychological health, particularly given that adolescence and early adulthood are when most mental illnesses are first manifested. In addition to students who may develop mental health challenges during their time in postsecondary education, many students arrive on campus with a mental health problem or having experienced significant trauma in their lives, which can also negatively affect physical, emotional, and psychological wellbeing. The nation's institutions of higher education are seeing increasing levels of mental illness, substance use and other forms of emotional distress among their students. Some of the problematic trends have been ongoing for decades. Some have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic consequences. Some are the result of long-festering systemic racism in almost every sphere of American life that are becoming more widely acknowledged throughout society and must, at last, be addressed. Mental Health, Substance Use, and Wellbeing in Higher Education lays out a variety of possible strategies and approaches to meet increasing demand for mental health and substance use services, based on the available evidence on the nature of the issues and what works in various situations. The recommendations of this report will support the delivery of mental health and wellness services by the nation's institutions of higher education.
