Adolescence and emerging adulthood are developmental periods characterized by increased prevalence of mental health (MH) issues. Disclosure of MH issues to parents or other adults is important for youth to gain support and access professional MH care, but many youth do not disclose MH issues due to a myriad of reasons. In this study, we conducted five focus groups ( = 33) with adolescents and emerging adults to better understand their perceptions of disclosing MH issues to their parents. We used reflexive thematic analysis to identify factors that facilitate MH disclosure to parents and improve the process of discussing concerns. Our analysis identified six themes which include , and . Our findings are discussed in the context of disclosure decision-making models and how professionals can equip parents to create a parent-child relationship conducive to MH disclosure.

Importance: Maternal inflammation during pregnancy has been associated with an increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism, and cognitive deficits in early childhood. However, little is known about the contributions of a wider range of inflammatory proteins to this risk.
Objective: To determine whether maternal inflammatory proteins during pregnancy are associated with the risk of NDDs and executive functions (EF) in middle childhood and to identify protein patterns associated with NDDs and EF.
Expectancy Effects, Failure of Blinding Integrity, and Placebo Response in Trials of Treatments for Psychiatric Disorders: A Narrative Review.
JAMA Psychiatry
March 2025

Importance: Expectancy effects are significant confounding factors in psychiatric randomized clinical trials (RCTs), potentially affecting the interpretation of study results. This narrative review is the first, to our knowledge, to explore the relationship between expectancy effects, compromised blinding integrity, and the effects of active treatment/placebo in psychiatric RCTs. Additionally, we present statistical and experimental approaches that may help mitigate the confounding impact of expectancy effects.
