Society should undergo a shift where psychological health is considered as important as physical health, and it's accepted that it's okay to not be okay. Implementing measures to lower barriers for addressing mental health issues and seeking help is crucial in this transformation

One early prevention approach could involve the consistent visitation of homes by medical professionals, effectively reducing the barriers for individuals and families when seeking help. #mim2023

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

It's time to rethink outcome measures for assessing prevention success. While morbidity and mortality are important, including outcomes like reduced loneliness and fewer depressive symptoms can make mental health prevention programs more relatable and comprehensive. #mim2023

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

The under-funding of prevention needs to be addressed in the field of mental health. We can draw lessons from the success of public health campaigns aimed at reducing lung cancer rates as a model for future steps, emphasizing the importance of prevention efforts in mental health

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

Social media offers a great opportunity to disseminate scientific knowledge by translating it into a language that is accessible to a broad audience. It also has the potential to reach younger populations effectively. #mim2023

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

Technology is advancing at an unprecedented pace, causing more disruption than ever. Nevertheless, it also provides us with the ability to reach out to those in need, presenting a significant opportunity for prevention, enhancing resilience, and building stronger communities.

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

Many people recognize the significance of mental health when they are already in crisis. One approach to improving this situation could be introducing mental health literacy in schools. This can help raise awareness, reduce stigma, and enhance the prevention of mental illnesses.

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

Implementing effective interventions is often easier than reaching individuals who need help. Learning how to make these interventions attractive and gaining access to target groups while persuading them of their value is crucial. #mim2023

@johanna_JLoe @MTeesson @heleenriper Now we start off with a Clinical Roundtable on Integrating Research Findings into Practice and Policy
Moderated by: JProf. Johanna Löchner
Speakers: Prof. Sabine Walper, Prof. Bruce Compas, Lucia Kleekamm, Prof. Maree Teesson, Prof.Helen Riper

Rumination (repetitive &negatively self-focused thought pattern), is a risk factor for depression and anxiety, prospectively predicting their onset in adolescents. Mindfulness training (metacognitive awareness &present-moment attention) may effectively reduce rumination in teens.

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

It's interesting to consider the link between brain development and mental health problems, hypothesizing that it may even play a role in the progression of mental illnesses. #mim2023

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

Adolescence is a stage in life when various mental health issues can emerge, including impulse disorders, substance use problems, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, schizophrenia, and OCD. #mim2023

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

To explore teachers' and counselors' perceptions of the school's role in student mental health, key themes include support (e.g. protection), frontline involvement (e.g. prevention), collaboration, and education (e.g.mental health literacy). #mim2023

@K_L_Humphreys @MEDVanderbilt It was honestly one of my favorite talks of the meeting!! Never seen such an observant audience #getwellsoon

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

Smart sensing starts with sensors like motion and location. These enable person-centric (e.g. stress), person-environment sensing (e.g. social interactions), and environmental sensing (e.g. air pollution). The ultimate aim is health prediction. #mim2023

[PRODO Research Group @GroupProdo]

Smart Sensing in Mental Health involves utilizing unobtrusive sensor data and aggregated features (such as location, language, app usage, etc.) with the option of incorporating active data input (e.g., Ecological Momentary Assessment). #mim2023
