本研究旨在实施一项关于社交退缩心理健康方面的公共电影活动。第二个目标是评估参与者与社交退缩相关的知识、态度和意向行为。方法这次活动在美国三个地点举行，包括电影放映、问答和讲座。结果在163名参与者中，115人(70.6%)完成了调查。大多数样本认为社交退缩是一个重要的心理健康问题。对于事后意向行为，90.2%的人表示有获取更多信息的意图，48.0%的人表示对他人的社交退缩保持警惕，19.6%的人表示愿意与医疗保健专业人员讨论他们自己或他们认识的人的社交退缩问题。亚裔参与者比非亚裔参与者更倾向于鼓励因社交退缩而寻求帮助(p = .001)。讨论公共电影活动可能是提高心理健康意识和寻求治疗的一种创造性方式。
IntroductionThis study aimed to implement a public film event about mental health aspects of social withdrawal. Secondary aims were to assess participants' knowledge, attitudes, and intended behaviors related to social withdrawal.MethodThe event, held at three U.S. sites, consisted of a film screening, question‐and‐answer session, and lecture. Participants completed a post‐event survey.ResultsOf the 163 participants, 115 (70.6%) completed surveys. Most of the sample deemed social withdrawal a significant mental health issue. Regarding post‐event intended behaviors, 90.2% reported intent to get more information, 48.0% to being vigilant for social withdrawal in others, and 19.6% to talking with a health care professional about concerns for social withdrawal in themselves or someone they knew. Asian participants were significantly more likely than non‐Asians to intend to encourage help‐seeking for social withdrawal (p = .001).DiscussionA public film event may be a creative way to improve mental health awareness and treatment‐seeking.
