Systematic review and citation content analysis of the CHIME framework for mental health recovery processes: recommendations for developing influential conceptual frameworks.

Objectives: To identify design features of the CHIME conceptual framework of mental health recovery which are associated with high rates of citation.

Research Design And Methods: Systematic review of all citations of the Connectedness, Hope, Identity, Meaning, and Empowerment (CHIME) framework of mental health recovery. Papers citing CHIME were screened and extracted from three citation databases.

Typology of content warnings and trigger warnings: Systematic review.

Content and trigger warnings give information about the content of material prior to receiving it. Different typologies of content warnings have emerged across multiple sectors, including health, social media, education and entertainment. Benefits arising from their use are contested, with recent empirical evidence from educational sectors suggesting they may raise anxiety and reinforce the centrality of trauma experience to identity, whilst benefits relate to increased individual agency in making informed decisions about engaging with content.

Post-traumatic growth in psychosis: a systematic review and narrative synthesis.

Background And Objective: People with psychosis report experiences of highly traumatic events. Positive change or post-traumatic growth (PTG) can occur as a result of traumatic experiences. Yet there is limited attention on PTG in psychosis, possibly due to the negative impact of psychotic symptoms on functioning and quality of life.

Recorded Mental Health Recovery Narratives as a Resource for People Affected by Mental Health Problems: Development of the Narrative Experiences Online (NEON) Intervention.

Background: The internet enables sharing of narratives about health concerns on a substantial scale, and some digital health narratives have been integrated into digital health interventions. Narratives describing recovery from health problems are a focus of research, including those presented in recorded (eg, invariant) form. No clinical trial has been conducted on a web-based intervention providing access to a collection of Recorded Recovery Narratives (RRNs).

Social connectedness in adults with mental disorders: ecological validation of a conceptual framework for novel complex interventions.

Background: Social connectedness interventions may improve the clinical outcomes and personal recovery of adults with mental disorders but many interventions lack a clear theory-base and show limited effectiveness.

Aim: To evaluate the validity of a newly developed conceptual framework (the CIVIC framework: Closeness, Identity, Valued relationships, Involvement and Cared for and accepted) to function as the theory-base for novel social connectedness-based mental health interventions.

Method: Semi-structured interviews with adults with diagnostically heterogeneous mental disorders (n = 13) and mental health professionals (n = 9).

The VOICES Typology of Curatorial Decisions in Narrative Collections of the Lived Experiences of Mental Health Service Use, Recovery, or Madness: Qualitative Study.

Background: Collections of lived experience narratives are increasingly used in health research and medical practice. However, there is limited research with respect to the decision-making processes involved in curating narrative collections and the work that curators do as they build and publish collections.

Objective: This study aims to develop a typology of curatorial decisions involved in curating narrative collections presenting lived experiences of mental health service use, recovery, or madness and to document approaches selected by curators in relation to identified curatorial decisions.

INCRESE: Development of an Inventory to Characterize Recorded Mental Health Recovery Narratives.

Objective: Mental health recovery narratives are increasingly used in clinical practice, public health campaigns, and as directly-accessed online resources. No instrument exists to describe characteristics of individual recovery narratives. The aims were to develop and evaluate an inventory to characterize recorded recovery narratives.

The mechanisms and processes of connection: developing a causal chain model capturing impacts of receiving recorded mental health recovery narratives.

Background: Mental health recovery narratives are a core component of recovery-oriented interventions such as peer support and anti-stigma campaigns. A substantial number of recorded recovery narratives are now publicly available online in different modalities and in published books. Whilst the benefits of telling one's story have been investigated, much less is known about how recorded narratives of differing modalities impact on recipients.

The experiences of spirituality among adults with mental health difficulties: a qualitative systematic review.

Aims: Despite an increasing awareness of the importance of spirituality in mental health contexts, a 'religiosity gap' exists in the difference in the value placed on spirituality and religion by professionals compared with service users. This may be due to a lack of understanding about the complex ways people connect with spirituality within contemporary society and mental health contexts, and can result in people's spiritual needs being neglected, dismissed or pathologised within clinical practice. The aim of this qualitative systematic review is to characterise the experiences of spirituality among adults with mental health difficulties in published qualitative research.

Conceptual framework for social connectedness in mental disorders: Systematic review and narrative synthesis.

Background: Adults with mental disorders are at a high risk of loneliness. Loneliness has been implicated in a wide variety of physical and mental health problems. Social connectedness interventions are one means to tackle loneliness but have shown mixed effectiveness.

Long-stay in forensic-psychiatric care in the UK.

Purpose: Forensic services provide care for mentally disordered offenders. In England this is provided at three levels of security-low, medium and high. Significant number of patients within these settings remain detained for protracted periods of time.

Unregistered health care staff's perceptions of 12 hour shifts: an interview study.

Aim: The purpose of the study was to explore unregistered health care staff's perceptions of 12 hour shifts on work performance and patient care.

Background: Many unregistered health care staff work 12 hour shifts, but it is unclear whether these are compatible with good quality care or work performance.

Method: Twenty five health care assistants from a range of care settings with experience of working 12 hour shifts took part in interviews or focus groups.
