Повний текст джерелаBackground: Mental health problems are increasing for adolescents in Sweden. Few of them seek help from health care when they are feeling unwell. Children and adolescents psychiatry in Sweden have excessive waiting lists for help seekers and therefore few who require help are getting it directly when needed. Adolescents are at risk of worsening their mental health status without available professional help. An mhealth app have the potential to be an alternative for adolescents with mental health problems before they have a chance to receive professional help. Objective: The aim of the study is to highlight how adolescents express their mood in the ”Här ligger jag…” app. Methods: This study has a qualitative approach to the field. The collection of data was carried out during one week in March of 2020 with consent from the users. A total of 414 posts was collected and analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results: The result consist of five categories with expressions of feelings. It shows that adolescents have a need to express themselves about anxiety, depressive symptoms, loneliness, hatred and well-being. Conclusions: Nurses with knowledge about adolescents needs to express their mood could guide them to find mhealth apps which are available 24/7. Talking about mental health may be perceived as a difficult topic to discuss and therefore it may be easier in an anonymous forum.

Повний текст джерелаMental illness is increasing, both globally and in Sweden. Meanwhile it is reported that the psychiatric care is inadequate because of its low availability. A solution to this problem is to increase the availability of care through a smartphone application. But no matter how effective an app might be, it will not solve anything if it is not used. The purpose of this study is therefore to investigate attitudes towards this kind of digitalization and to examine what kind of app functions that can meet patients needs. The study is based on qualitative interviews with persons that have received care from the psychiatry at Akademiska sjukhuset in Uppsala, Sweden. Furthermore, we analyze the empirical material by using the theoretical framework Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The results show that all of the participating patients generally have positive attitudes towards the concept of using apps for mental health care. Although, these positive attitudes require that a mental health app should be complementary to the psychiatric care available today, not replace it. Finally, the study also suggests that application functions that are well suited to meet the needs of the patients are those who make the mental health care more available by providing information rather than offering treatment through the application.

Повний текст джерелаA perturbação mental é um dos principais problemas das sociedades atuais, preponderante na morbilidade das populações. Neste sentido, é importante que se definam estratégias e ações a desenvolver, visando contrariar esta tendência e edificar uma melhoria na saúde mental das pessoas. Neste prisma, a continuidade de cuidados surge como um dos contribuintes para a promoção da saúde mental e reabilitação psicossocial. Com este trabalho pretendemos compreender este fenómeno nosológico e quais as ferramentas para combater o incremento das perturbações mentais. Utilizamos a metodologia de projeto que foi concretizada através de uma revisão integrativa da literatura. A literatura evidencia que existe uma relação entre as intervenções do EEESMP, a continuidade de cuidados e a melhoria da condição de saúde da pessoa com perturbação mental. Conclui-se que o EEESMP tem um papel muito importante nos ganhos em saúde tanto para as pessoas acometidas por esta nosologia como para a sociedade onde se insere.

In this perspective, continuity of care emerges as a contributor to the promotion of mental health and psychosocial rehabilitation. With this work we intend to understand this nosological phenomenon and which tools to combat the increase of mental disorders. We used the project methodology that was performed through an integrative literature review. The literature shows that there is a relationship between EEESMP interventions, continuity of care and improvement of the health status of the person with mental disorder. It is concluded that the EEESMP plays a very important role in health gains, for both the people affected by this nosology and the society where it is inserted.

Повний текст джерелаIntroduction: The nursing workers who live the sick leave by mental disorder face prejudices and difficulties, since the illness until the moment which returns to work. The restrictions for work in consequence of illness and reinsertion of worker in the daily life of work and in the team after this sick leave are still little studied, evidencing the need to a greater understanding about the theme. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the perception of oncology nursing workers after sick leave by mental disorders, about the return to work and elaborate proposals of intervention to facilitate this return. Methodology: This is a comprehensive study with qualitative approach developed with the nursing staff of an oncology hospital in São Paulo state. The sample consisted of 8 nursing workers, being 6 women and 2 men, which returned to sick leave by mental disorders in a maximum of six months. After project approval by the ethics committee, data collection began with a socio demographic questionnaire and after, an individual interview. The data collection was performed from June to October of 2013. The quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the qualitative data analysis was conducted by Thematic Analysis technique. Results: The categories that emerged from reports of workers showed the relations between work and the psychic illness. With respect to the working conditions, was observed that the nursing staffing is inappropriate and inherent characteristics to work in oncology are perceived by workers as factors of strain processes by the work. About the situations that workers lived at the time of the sick leave, the reports show that although there an overlay of personal problems and work problems, the work was the deciding factor for the illness. About the situations faced to returning to work, was evident that the difficulties for back to act on patient assistance and for back to work in a team. The stigma of mental disorders, both before and after of the sick leave, showed the difficulties of understanding the symptoms of mental disorders and the chronicity of these diseases. The workers only had access to occupational health in the institution, when it was necessary to request the sick leave. Intervention proposals suggestions for improvements: in the routine of work; teamwork; in supporting workers \' health. Conclusion: The results show the following needs: changes in the nursing staffing considering the particularities about the oncology nursing work; minimize the stigma of mental disorders in the institution, through the clarification of the teams; elaborate proposals for occupational health, for workers with mental disorders.

Повний текст джерелаMost studies of the family\'s role in the continuity of treatment after the first epidode psychosis investigate cases of abandonment treatment and point to \"negative aspects of family\". Few studies have investigated the role of the family in cases of patients who remain in treatment. Objective: Understand the experience of caring of a familiar in PEP and highlight the motivations to remain in care. Method: This is a qualitative research that used the systemic family theory as the theoretical framework and the narrative as a methodological framework. 13 family caregivers of 12 patients were interviewed. To carry out the interviews with narrative approach was used the following question: We know that few families remain in mental health treatment of their sick young familiar after the first episode psychosis. Maintain the treating and taking care of the patient is called engagement. These are actions like take into consultations, administer medications, so as to relate, take care of hygiene and so on. Therefore, we would like you to tell us what motivates you to stay caring after everything you and your family are sickened by his family. For the exploration of the narratives was used the inductive content analysis technique. Results: The analysis of the narrative set the familiar engagement in three major interdependent categories. One is related to the context of feelings involved in the care called \"Motivations for engagement,\" the other two refer to actions related to care called \"The engagement actions\" and \"The assessment of care.\" Conclusion: The study contributes to the knowledge to present actively involved families in caring of the young in treatment of first episode psychosis. The theoretical - methodological possible highlight and enhance the stories, experiences and family relations involved in the care of a loved one. Care were described and contextualized in the cultural values of families. We found that family members perceive care as a responsibility of their role in the family

Повний текст джерелаIn the present work, a business plan was executed on a mobile application to carry out psychological consultations in a virtual way, created by five students from the Business School of the Peruvian University of Applied Sciences (UPC). The project was developed based on the increase in psychological conditions seen during the 2020 -2021 period due to the Covid-19 pandemic that has affected the Peruvian population in a relevant way, thus generating significant changes in the development of their day by day, change that is reinforced by the lack of tools to access a psychological consultation following the parameters of prevention against this disease. When analyzing this sector, we can see that there is a high growth potential due to the trend of teleconsultations in the health sector, especially psychological consultations. After evaluating the needs and requirements of our target audience, we developed a mobile application that serves as a link between the psychologist and the patient, which allows for more fluid and accessible communication by providing an exclusive platform for psychotherapy. At the end of our sales project, the different budget plans of the HR, operations, marketing, and sales areas were analyzed to have a projection, in monetary terms, of what we need to carry out our business idea. With this, we will be able to know if it is acceptable to invest in it or in any case, learn and create new business ideas.

Повний текст джерелаIntroduction: Mental disorders (MD) are the third leading cause of long-term disability in Brazil. There are several factors that influence th e time to return to work (RTW) and the effectiveness of labor reintegration after an episo de of sick leave due to MD. When workers remain working more than 30 days after back to work is known as sustained return-to-work (S-RTW). In Brazil, there are no studies describing factors associated with the RTW of workers in sick leave due to MD. Objectives: To analyze factors associated to time to RTW after an episode of long-term sickness absence due to MD and the effectiveness of those RTW. Methods: A longitudinal study conducted in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, from 2014- 2016 included formal workers requiring disability b enefit. We had four phases: a) the cross- cultural adaptation of a Dutch instrument that asse sses the RTW-SE among absentees due to MD (N = 411); b) collecting demographic information , health risk behaviors, work characteristics, health conditions and social secur ity history (N = 204); c) interview on the employer s RTW process (N = 128); check worker\'s si tuation in the labor market after 365 days of absence. Survival analysis was performed to identify factors influencing the time for the RTW and multiple logistic regression to analyze the factors that contributed to the S- RTW. Results: The group of longitudinal study was composed mostl y by women (71 per cent ), people aged under 40 (68 per cent ), 12 or more years of edu cation (78 per cent ), customer service jobs (44,1 per cent ) and diagnosed as depressed (52 per cent ). The avera ge time for the RTW was almost six months among the 63 per cent who tried the resumption of wo rk activities. Factors that influence an earlier return were: aged between 30-39 years, 12 o r more years of education, low alcohol intake and lack of anxiety symptoms. The effectiven ess rate among those who tried to return was 74 per cent . Factors influencing the sustained RTW were job working time, return-to-work self- efficacy (RTW-SE) in baseline, and to be evaluated by a physician before RTW. The psychometric evaluation for Brazilian Portuguese ve rsion of RTW-SE questionnaire showed substantial (0.64) to almost perfect (0.86) tempora l stability adjusted by prevalence, good reliability (0.76) and a two dimensions structure. Conclusion: Factors related to sociodemographic characteristics, risk health behav iors and medical condition influenced the time for RTW. Factors related to psychological and occupational aspects, and also the RTW process influence the effectiveness of the return. The Brazilian Portuguese version for RTW- SE showed to be suitable for use in similar populat ions of our research. We hope to contribute to the discussion and to stimulate public and priva te intervention policies on tertiary prevention, focused in early RTW, and also in prima ry and secondary level of integral attention to the workers mental health

Повний текст джерелаO surgimento de estigma associado a doenças mentais constitui uma ameaça à sociedade atual, uma vez que os pacientes travam uma luta diária contra a sua condição e, por vezes, evitam procurar ajuda, perpetuando o seu sofrimento. Adicionalmente, a sociedade suporta custos elevados por não tratar adequadamente estes doentes, sendo esses custos não só de cariz social, mas também económico. Esta investigação procura determinar se uma aplicação de saúde mental pode atenuar o estigma associado à doença mental e fornecer uma solução ampla e massificada para pessoas com doenças mentais. Para isso, foi realizado um questionário no qual os inquiridos foram expostos a diversas perguntas e cenários em que suportam a existência do estigma e reagem ao surgimento de uma aplicação móvel de saúde mental, percebem os seus efeitos e quanto estão dispostos a usá-la e a pagar por ela. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que o estigma é uma evidência na nossa sociedade e que as pessoas parecem recetivas a esse método alternativo. Finalmente, a eficácia da aplicação e o facto de ser cientificamente comprovado surgem como principais preditores da disposição para usar um aplicativo mental enquanto o estigma parece não ter impacto, o que atesta que o uso de uma aplicação pode ser realmente um meio de diminuir o estigma.

Повний текст джерелаIntroduction:Dementia is one of the examples where currently mobile applications (MA) can be an asset, allowing patients or caregivers to improve their disease management (including medication management - MM). Many of the available MA come from other countries, so it’s important to explore what are the needs of caregivers and health professionals (HCPs), making it possible to adapt them. Aims: a) identify MA available to caregivers and people with dementia in the literature and in digital stores; b) explore the difficulties perceived by caregivers and characteristics to include in a new MA; c) explore the needs perceived by the PS on the characteristics considered most relevant to be included in an MA. Methods: Three steps: a systematic literature review (PRISMA guidelines) was carried out, complementing with a search in digital stores to identify tools already available; individual interviews were conducted with informal caregivers, asking them about difficulties in managing the disease, in MM and experience of using MA; finally, a nominal group technique with HCPs was performed to explore characteristics to be included in a MA. Results: 12 references were included, extracting a total of 47 MA. Complementing the digital stores, 29 MA were extracted. Only 19.7% MA had any resource related to MM. Most difficulties perceived by the three interviewed caregivers were related to disease management and MM. For HCPs, the main characteristics identified included communication with HCPs and MM, with a tie (23 points). Conclusion: Most of the MA identified in the literature were not available in digital stores and many did not consider MM as a characteristic. Some caregivers were unaware of the existence of MA and HCPs recommended that MA that are easy to use and more personalized can be useful for users and may lead to the adaptation of a tool to the Portuguese reality.
Introdução: A demência é um dos exemplos onde atualmente as aplicações móveis (AM) podem ser uma mais valia, permitindo ao doente ou ao cuidador uma melhoria na gestão da doença (incluindo gestão da medicação – GM). Muitas das AM disponíveis são oriundas de outros países, sendo importante explorar quais as necessidades dos cuidadores e dos profissionais de saúde (PS), tornando possível uma adaptação. Objetivos: a) identificar soluções de AM disponíveis para cuidadores e pessoas com demência na literatura e lojas digitais; b) explorar as dificuldades percecionadas pelos cuidadores e características a incluir numa nova AM; c) explorar as necessidades percecionadas pelos PS sobre as características consideradas mais relevantes a serem incluídas numa AM. Métodos: Três etapas: realizou-se uma revisão sistemática da literatura (guidelines PRISMA), complementando com uma pesquisa em lojas digitais para identificar ferramentas já disponíveis; foram conduzidas entrevistas individuais com cuidadores informais, questionando-os sobre as dificuldades na gestão da doença, na GM e experiência do uso de AM; por fim, foi realizada uma técnica de grupo nominal com PS para explorar características a ser incluídas numa AM. Resultados: Foram incluídas 12 referências, extraindo um total de 47 AM. Complementando com as lojas digitais, extraíram-se mais 29 AM. Apenas 19,7% AM tinham algum recurso relacionado à GM. A dificuldades mais percecionadas pelos três cuidadores entrevistados relacionaram-se com a gestão da doença e GM. Pelos PS, as principais características identificadas incluíram a comunicação com os PS e a GM, com um empate (23 pontos). Conclusão: A maioria das AM identificadas na literatura não se encontravam disponíveis nas lojas digitais e muitas não consideravam a GM como característica. Alguns cuidadores desconheciam a existência de AM e os PS recomendaram que AM fáceis de utilizar e mais personalizadas podem ser úteis para utilizadores, possibilitando uma adaptação de uma ferramenta para a realidade Portuguesa.

Objetivos: perceber a perceção das pessoas acerca da utilização de apps de saúde psicológica, comparativamente com o uso de apps de saúde física e a sua influência no bem-estar. Como tal, foram criados objetivos mais específicos: fazer uma comparação entre os usos relativamente à adesão e utilização: analisar a adesão ou não adesão, fatores facilitadores e inibidores do uso e da adesão e analisar a nível da experiência pessoal, a utilização de apps, tendo em conta a sensação de bem-estar pessoal percebida pelo próprio. Resultados: mostrou-se não existir diferenças significativas a nível da utilização de apps entre os dois grupos, no entanto, foi interessante verificar alguns aspetos em particular, como o facto de os participantes que indicaram utilizar apenas apps de saúde física atribuírem uma classificação mais baixa à sua saúde mental do que os participantes que indicaram apenas utilizar apps de saúde psicológica ou utilizar ambas. Conclusões: ao utilizarem apps de saúde psicológica, os participantes têm um suporte positivo a nível da sua saúde mental e, como tal, fazem uma melhor classificação da mesma. Seria interessante para estudos futuros, analisar uma possível relação a nível da saúde física e da saúde mental e de que forma afetam mutuamente a saúde psicológica do sujeito.

Objectives: understand people's perception about the use of psychological health apps, compared to the use of physical health apps and its influence on well-being. As such, more specific objectives were created: making a comparison between uses regarding adherence and use: analyzing adherence or non-adherence, facilitating, and inhibiting factors of use and adherence and analyzing the level of personal experience, the use of apps, considering the sense of personal well-being perceived by the self. Results: it was shown that there were no significant differences in the use of apps between the two groups, however, it was interesting to verify some aspects, such as the fact that participants who indicated that they only use physical health apps attributed a lower rating to their mental health than participants who indicated only using psychological health apps or using both. Conclusions: when using psychological health apps, participants have a positive support in terms of their mental health and, as such, make a better classification of it. It would be interesting for future studies to analyze a possible relationship in terms of physical and mental health and how they mutually affect the subject's psychological health

This paper aims to conduct a complete constitutional-research on involuntary treatment of mental-disorderly patients regulated by the Mental Health Act. Mental Health Act contains regulations such as Involuntary Hospitalization treatment, Mandatory Community treatment, and so on. Involuntary Hospitalization treatment is an important method that protects both serious patients and the safety of society, but it also poses immense interference to the freedom of patients. On the other hand, Taiwan is the first Asian country to ever practiced Mandatory Community treatment, hence the damage caused by this method on patients’ rights must be concerned. While discussing whether “involuntary treatment” conforms to the civilian rights given by the Constitution, the main point should be focused on if the National interference on imposing involuntary treatment on mental-disabled patients is necessary. Only when this prerequisite is confirmed true, can we examine whether these involuntary treatments conform to the Constitution, and subsequently offer advice. Consequently, this paper will follow this sequence to analyze the damage done to the rights of mental-disorderly patients by the involuntary treatment imposed by Mental Health Act in Taiwan, and hence propose relief plans as well as improvement methods, in hope to secure sufficient rights and welfares for the mental-disabled patients.

In addition to physical discomforts, work-related injuries and illnesses often result in various forms of hardships, including impaired ability to work, economic hardships, and conflicts and legal disputes with employers. Workers’ psychological health conditions are likely to be worsened when social supporting systems are fragmented. This study aimed to examine the experiences of injured workers when interacting with the social systems, and the associations between the experience of occupational injury or illness and mental health. In the first part, the researcher utilized existing survey data to examine the association between the experience of occupational injuries or diseases with mental health outcomes. In the second part, the researcher conducted in-depth interviews with injured workers to understand workers’ experiences concerning employment and labor conditions before and after injury, experiences with workers’ compensation system and other social welfare systems, and their physical and psychological consequences. Methods: Mixed-methods were used in this study. For the quantitative study, data from a national survey of a representative sample of general working people of Taiwan was analyzed, consisting of 12,528 male and 8,396 female workers. A standardized questionnaire was used to obtain information regarding the experiences of occupational injuries or diseases encountered over the previous 12 months. Mental health status was measured by the Brief Symptom Rating Scale (BSRS-5). Also obtained were participants’ age, educational level, and employment grade. For the qualitative study, participants were referred by the Centers for Prevention and Treatment of Occupational Injury and Disease. In-depth interview with52 workers who had experienced occupational injuries and illnesses were conducted, including 28 males and 24 females. Among them, 15 experienced occupational injuries and 37 occupational diseases. Results: In the survey, the results showed that after controlling for age, employment grades and education level, workers who had experienced occupational injuries over the previous 12 months were at a higher risk for poor mental health (OR men 3.08, women 3.19), poor self-rated health status (OR men 5.03, women 6.23). In the qualitative study, among the 52 participants, 19 workers reported having mental health problems. Reasons for poor mental health can be categorized as the following: physical health problems, impaired work ability, economic hardships, conflicts with employer or management, difficulties in returning back to work or reaming employed, stress in social relationships, disrupted life pace, lower self-esteem, frustration in the workers’ compensation process. Conclusion: Study findings showed that workers with occupational injuries or diseases experiences multiple hardships and were at high risks for developing mental health problems. Psychosocial consequences of work-related injuries or illnesses deserve further investigation and interventions.

The main purpose of this research is to explore the current situation on job burnout, leisure coping, and the physical and mental health for the Yun-lin County primary school teachers as well as to compare the disparity among these teachers with different backgrounds so as to further explore the relationship among these three variables. This research is based on questionnaires completed by Yun-lin County primary school teachers. A total of 400 questionnaires were distributed and 382 of them were returned resulting in a completion rate of 95.5%. Within the 382 questionnaires returned, 373 of them were valid resulting in an actual completion rate of 93.25%. Descriptive statistics, T-test, One-way ANOVA, Pearson Product-moment Correlation Analysis, and Multiple Regression Analysis were applied to the research data. The results of this study were shown in the following summary: 1. Feeling on job burnout for the Yun-lin County primary school teachers has shown a medium degree, and “low morale” scored the highest. 2. Feeling on leisure coping for them was beneath the average, and “increase positive energy” was the most positive one. 3. Feeling on the physical and mental health for them appeared to be a medium level, and “signs of depression” was the healthiest. 4. Job burnout and leisure coping have been shown to be significantly negatively correlated with one another. 5. Job burnout and the physical and mental health were highly correlated. 6. Leisure coping and the physical and mental health were significantly correlated. 7. Yun-lin County primary school teachers’ job burnout, leisure coping, and the physical and mental health were significantly predictable.

Повний текст джерелаThe present study's main objectives are to understand the experience of a Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy (IVG) one year after its completion and the personal perception of its actual impact on mental and sexual health and intimate relationships. The methodological orientation proposed here is a qualitative approach, based on semi-structured interviews via telephone. The study includes six women who had an abortion a year ago, recruited through the Department of Obstetrics Gynecology, from a hospital in the metropolitan area of Porto, Portugal. After the transcript of the interviews, the content was analysed with the support of NVIVO 9.0 software. From the semi-inductive analysis five major themes emerged: Impact of the Abortion Experience, Social Support, Family Planning, Abortion Process and Importance of Abortion Research. The results showed that the impact of abortion on mental health focuses on the temporary manifestation of negative and positive emotional reactions, without reports of psychological counselling, psychiatric medication or significant changes in substance use after the abortion. All women have attended to the family planning counselling and they all changed their attitude and behaviour related to contraception. After the experience of an abortion, women tend to develop or maintain a favourable opinion about the women’s right to choose an abortion, although there is an increased sensitivity related to the difficulty involved in the process. In regards to the impact of the interpersonal relationships and social support on adjustment to abortion, there are positive and negative responses. However, it depends on the perceived support. Generally speaking, one year after the abortion, women say that they coped well with the experience.

Повний текст джерелаAnxiety and insomnia are among the most common mental health disorders with negative consequences for patients, their families and society as a whole. Pharmacological treatment options with initial efficacy are available but are associated with unwanted side effects and tolerance in the longer term. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is a treatment of choice that provides an effective and longer-term solution, but availability is limited with long waiting-lists. Alternative effective options are needed to address the needs of all those suffering from anxiety and insomnia in a cost effective and timely manner. In particular, the development of new applications of technologies that are already widely used in the general population hold the potential to address the lack of access to traditional resources for those with mental health problems. Our team took the initiative to evaluate the efficacy of the Muzzz app, which consists of listening to positive suggestions inspired by Schultz's autogenic training., and is designed to reduce anxiety and to improve sleep These suggestions are masked by relaxing music and delivered in a subliminal format as a derivative of the APAP (Augmentation of Psychotherapy through Alternative Preconscious Priming) program. The APAP program developed by Borgeat et al. (2013) consists of listening of positive personalized suggestions masked by relaxing music, which has previously shown effectiveness in increasing positive cognitions (d = 0.53) and decreasing negative cognitions (d = 0.73). To assess the effectiveness of the Muzzz app and its application among those with anxiety and insomnia a total of 20 participants (10 men and 10 women were recruited at the Saint-Michel and Rosemont CLSCs (local community service centers) and invited to use the app for 4 weeks in a psychoeducational context. To measure the effects of the app they were administered the Beck Anxiety Inventory, the Insomnia Severity Index and the Penn State Worry Questionnaire at the beginning of the study and then at 2 and 4 weeks respectively. Anxiety, insomnia and worry was also assessed with the Emax app which is used to collect data in real time. In addition, change in cognitions were assessed with the Idiosyncratic Measure of Convictions in Thoughts at the beginning and at the end of the study. The results showed a statistically significant reduction in anxiety (d=0.78) at the end of the intervention period. In addition, there was a significant improvement in the quality of sleep (d=0.78) and reduction in worries (d=0.77). Finally, a significant improvement in cognitions was observed with the decrease in negative cognitions as assessed by the Idiosyncratic Measure of Convictions in Thoughts (d=1.59). We can therefore conclude that the use of the Muzzz app in a psychoeducational context is effective for temporarily relieving symptoms of people with anxiety and insomnia, while they are on waiting-list to see a healthcare professional. Results are limited by a relatively small size and await confirmation in future larger-scale studies.

Повний текст джерелаNa sociedade há um grande estigma e desvalorização da saúde mental. Os adolescentes sofrem grandes mudanças, o que pode interferir na saúde mental deles, não procurando ajuda na maior parte dos casos. Os educadores, por sua vez, acabam por não se aperceberem da situação em que os jovens se encontram. Isto pode acabar por causar insucesso escolar, sofrimento e isolamento, que causa grande impacto no futuro do adolescente. O projeto SMS foi desenvolvido por um grupo de psicólogos investigadores do Centro de Investigação em Neuropsicologia e Intervenção Cognitivo-Comportamental - CINEICC - da Faculdade de Psicologia e Ciências da Educação da Universidade de Coimbra e tem como objetivo principal promover a saúde mental na adolescência. Este trabalho tem como objetivo melhorar a plataforma utilizada pelo projeto SMS - Sucesso, Mente, Saúde através das ferramentas de UX Design que têm como foco a experiência do utilizador.Para criar a plataforma utilizaram-se as tecnologias HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP e MySQL. Foi desenvolvida uma identidade visual, que inclui a cor, tipografia, logotipo e estilo de desenho a ser utilizado pelo projeto, para poder ser aplicada na plataforma. Para a criação desta identidade fez-se uma pesquisa sobre o impacto emocional da cor e da tipografia no utilizador. A plataforma foi testada utilizando as Heurísticas de Nielsen e o Walkthrough Cognitivo de Wharton. A plataforma foi desenhada para ser utilizada no telemóvel devido ao foco principal da dissertação ter sido dada aos adolescentes que são quem mais vai beneficiar desta aplicação. Na plataforma tens a possibilidade aceder e criar a tua própria conta, mas também tem uma parte independente meramente informativa.
In society, we see a great stigma and devaluation of mental health. Teenagers undergo major changes, which can interfere with their mental health, and in most cases, they don’t seek any help. On the other hand, educators end up not being aware of the situation in which these teenagers people find themselves and can end up causing school failure, suffering and isolation, which has a great impact on the adolescent's future. The project SMS was developed by a group of psychologists investigators of the Center of Investigation on Neuropsychology and Cognitive-Behavioral Intervention - CINEICC - of the Faculty of Psychology of the Coimbra University and its main goal is to promote mental health in teenagers. The goal of this work is to create a platform to be used by the project SMS - Sucesso, Mente, Saúde with the tools that UX Design provides which have its focus on the experience of its user.To create this platform we used HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL technologies. We developed a visual identity, including the colour, typography, logo and design style to be used by the project, to be applied on the platform. To create this identity, we carried a research on the emotional impact of colour and typography on the user. The platform was tested using Nielsen's Heuristics and Wharton's Cognitive Walkthrough.The platform was designed to be used on mobile phones due to the main focus of the dissertation being given to teenagers who will benefit most from this application. On the platform, you have the possibility to access and create your own account, but it also has an independent part for information only.

Повний текст джерелаVärldshälsoorganisationen har förutspått att vid 2030 kommer depression att orsaka mer tidiga död och funktionshinder än cancer, stroke eller olyckor. Antalet utbrändhet har ökat under de senaste åren eftersom vi är så fokuserade på våra materialistiska behov, lär oss att hantera tekniken men vi har inte lärt oss hur vi ska hantera våra egna känslor. Detta är aktuell idag i det svenska samhället där folk med olika bakgrund som har språksvårigheter lyckas inte uttrycka deras känslomässiga tillstånd för att få det hjälp det behöver. Samtidigt, de flesta metoderna som används i terapi sker muntligt eller skriftligt, vilket kan vara svårt även för dem som pratar samma språk. I mitt projekt har intervjuat psykoterapeuter och individer som har varit på terapisessioner. Under processens gång har jag insett betydelsen som ett tredimensionellt objekt kan ha för patienten och hur detta kan användas som hjälpmedel och stöd. Inom detta område har jag bearbetat följande frågor: Huruvida skulle känslor abstraheras i former? Kan vi beskriva våra blandade känslor med hjälp av objekt? Vad kan jag som designer bidra till den tvådimensionella världen av terapi och psykisk hälsa?
