The aim of this study is to investigate the effects on population level mental health literacy (MHL) of Every Mind Matters over 30 months following campaign launch.
To observe changes in MHL over time, we conducted regression analyses on a nationally representative, repeated cross-sectional dataset of nine survey waves from September 2019 to March 2022 and an individual participant data meta-analysis with data from October 2019 to March 2021 to examine the association between campaign awareness and the outcomes.
There were small improvements in knowledge of management of stress, depression and anxiety, mental health vigilance, sleep literacy and psychological wellbeing self-efficacy from September 2019 to March 2020 and a deterioration in most MHL outcomes from March 2020 compared with September 2019. Campaign awareness was positively associated with symptom management of depression and anxiety, help seeking self-efficacy, stigma related to mental disorders and mental health vigilance.
There is little evidence that the campaign improved MHL in the general population beyond March 2020. Those who were aware of the campaign may have benefitted from its resources.
本研究旨在调查“每个心灵 Matters”活动启动 30 个月后对人群心理健康素养(MHL)的影响。
为了观察 MHL 随时间的变化,我们对 2019 年 9 月至 2022 年 3 月的 9 个调查波次的全国代表性重复横断面数据集进行回归分析,并对 2019 年 10 月至 2021 年 3 月的数据进行个体参与者数据荟萃分析,以检验活动意识与结果之间的关联。
从 2019 年 9 月至 2020 年 3 月,在管理压力、抑郁和焦虑、心理健康警觉、睡眠素养和心理健康自我效能方面的知识有了较小的提高,而与 2019 年 9 月相比,2020 年 3 月大多数 MHL 结果都有所恶化。活动意识与抑郁和焦虑症状管理、寻求帮助的自我效能、与精神障碍相关的污名和心理健康警觉呈正相关。
几乎没有证据表明该活动除 2020 年 3 月以外,还能提高一般人群的 MHL。那些知道该活动的人可能受益于其资源。
