Article Synopsis
- The review aims to identify factors affecting young people's help-seeking and use of mental health services, focusing on individuals aged 0-30, through evidence gathered from multiple high-quality systematic reviews.
- Key factors influencing mental healthcare access include trust in professionals, support from close relationships, treatment costs, service availability, and insurance policies, with stigma being a significant concern across many reviews.
- The study highlights the need for tailored interventions that address specific community and demographic needs while promoting stigma reduction and improving trust, affordability, anonymity, and mental health awareness among young people.
Rationale: As the older adult population increases, understanding the health effects of bias against older adults is increasingly important. Whether structural forms of age bias predict worse health has received limited attention.
Objective: We hypothesized that communities with greater age bias would have higher mortality among residents aged 65 and older.
