通过减少污名化来增加寻求帮助和转介风险个人的机会已被定义为国家预防自杀行动联盟研究优先工作组2014年优先研究议程中的理想目标10。本文回顾了大众媒体宣传运动对减少污名和增加求助的影响的研究证据。该审查将侧重于自杀预防干预措施的有益和医源性影响，利用媒体宣传活动，以广泛的公众。另一个重点是公共卫生专业人员和新闻媒体之间的合作，以减少模仿行为的风险，并加强寻求帮助的行为。多层次的方法，包括大众媒体的干预和个人层面的方法，以减少耻辱和增加recommendations.Multilevel自杀预防计划，联合收割机各种方法似乎提供了最有前途的结果，但更多的需要了解这些计划的最佳可能的组成。主要的研究和实践挑战包括确定最佳方式，以接触可能无法从目前的宣传战略中受益的弱势群体。在所有旨在减少自杀意念、精神疾病和精神健康治疗的耻辱感的努力中，都需要谨慎，以避免医源性影响。文章最后对研究问题提出了具体建议，以帮助推动自杀研究和实践的发展。
Increasing help-seeking and referrals for at-risk individuals by decreasing stigma has been defined as Aspirational Goal 10 in the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention's Research Prioritization Task Force's 2014 prioritized research agenda. This article reviews the research evidence on the impact of mass media awareness campaigns on reducing stigma and increasing help-seeking. The review will focus on both beneficial and iatrogenic effects of suicide preventive interventions using media campaigns to target the broad public. A further focus is on collaboration between public health professionals and news media in order to reduce the risk of copycat behavior and enhance help-seeking behavior. Examples of multilevel approaches that include both mass media interventions and individual-level approaches to reduce stigma and increase referrals are provided as well.Multilevel suicide prevention programs that combine various approaches seem to provide the most promising results, but much more needs to be learned about the best possible composition of these programs. Major research and practice challenges include the identification of optimal ways to reach vulnerable populations who likely do not benefit from current awareness strategies. Caution is needed in all efforts that aim to reduce the stigma of suicidal ideation, mental illness, and mental health treatment in order to avoid iatrogenic effects. The article concludes with specific suggestions for research questions to help move this line of suicide research and practice forward.
