所有从事儿童和青少年工作的人员对情绪健康的适当测量日益成为专业实践的焦点。大多数用于情绪健康评估或自我评估的工具都是在 20 世纪中叶设计的,使用的是源自笔和纸书面文本的语言和技术。然而,在计算普及、年轻人手中的视听媒体设备日益丰富的时代,它们是否适合呢?这篇思考文章探讨了视觉图像(尤其是可以在数字设备上查看或创建的形式)的增加使用如何为更有效地测量情绪健康提供一条前进的道路,包括笑脸、其他表情符号和其他潜在的视觉图像形式。作者汇集了医疗保健、咨询、青年倡导、学术研究、初级保健和学校心理健康支持的观点来探讨这些问题。
Appropriate measurement of emotional health by all those working with children and young people is an increasing focus for professional practice. Most of the tools used for assessment or self-assessment of emotional health were designed in the mid-20th century using language and technology derived from pen and paper written texts. However, are they fit for purpose in an age of pervasive computing with increasingly rich audiovisual media devices being in the hands of young people? This thought piece explores how the increased use of visual imagery, especially forms that can be viewed or created on digital devices, might provide a way forward for more effective measuring of emotional health, including smiley faces, other emojis and other potential forms of visual imagery. The authors bring together perspectives from healthcare, counselling, youth advocacy, academic research, primary care and school-based mental health support to explore these issues.
