Mental ill-health can impact an individual’s capacity to interact with others, make decisions, and cope with social challenges. This is of particular importance for many Culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) individuals who may be at various stages of the acculturation process. The increasing diversity of the Australian population necessitates informed and culturally relevant services that meet the needs of a changing demographic. However the extant research on the mental health needs of CALD Australians is limited. This study aimed to further our understanding of the mental health needs of young CALD Australians by exploring the mental health concerns and social factors exhibited by CALD individuals accessing community based youth mental health services in two major cities. We performed a series of logistic regression models to ascertain if a concert of factors (i.e., clinical, socio-economic, criminal justice system involvement, child maltreatment, social support) were associated with CALD status Comparisons across factors revealed no significant differences between groups. A small number of correlates differentiated between CALD and non-CALD participants (mental illness diagnosis during childhood, family history of mental illness/suicide, sensation seeking, sensitivity to punishment, maternal overprotection) however these factors were no longer meaningful after adjustment for multiple comparisons. In help-seeking mainstream youth populations, cultural differences across clinical and environmental factors appear to be minimal.

探索寻求心理健康问题援助的多元文化青年的表述差异

精神疾病会影响个人与他人互动,做出决定以及应对社会挑战的能力。这对于可能处于适应过程各个阶段的许多文化和语言多样性(CALD)个人而言尤其重要。澳大利亚人口的多样性日益增长,因此需要能够提供知识和与文化相关的服务,以满足不断变化的人口需求。但是,有关CALD澳大利亚人心理健康需求的现有研究是有限的。这项研究旨在通过探索在两个主要城市中获得社区青少年心理健康服务的CALD个人所表现出的心理健康问题和社会因素,进一步加深我们对澳大利亚CALD青少年的心理健康需求的了解。我们进行了一系列逻辑回归模型,以确定一系列因素(例如,临床,社会经济,刑事司法系统参与,虐待儿童,社会支持)是否与CALD状况相关联。各个因素之间的比较表明,各组之间无显着差异。少数相关因素在CALD和非CALD参与者之间有所区分(儿童时期的精神疾病诊断,精神疾病/自杀的家族病史,寻求感觉,对惩罚的敏感性,孕产妇过度保护),但是在进行多次比较调整后,这些因素不再有意义。在寻求帮助的主流青年人口中,跨临床和环境因素的文化差异似乎很小。儿童虐待,社会支持)与CALD状况相关。各因素的比较显示,各组之间无显着差异。少数相关因素在CALD和非CALD参与者之间有所区别(儿童时期的精神疾病诊断,精神疾病/自杀的家族病史,寻求感觉,对惩罚的敏感性,孕产妇过度保护),但是这些因素在为多重比较进行调整后不再有意义。在寻求帮助的主流青年人口中,跨临床和环境因素的文化差异似乎很小。儿童虐待,社会支持)与CALD状况相关。各因素的比较显示,各组之间无显着差异。少数相关因素在CALD和非CALD参与者之间有所区分(儿童时期的精神疾病诊断,精神疾病/自杀的家族病史,寻求感觉,对惩罚的敏感性,孕产妇过度保护),但是在进行多次比较调整后,这些因素不再有意义。在寻求帮助的主流青年人口中,跨临床和环境因素的文化差异似乎很小。少数相关因素在CALD和非CALD参与者之间有所区分(儿童时期的精神疾病诊断,精神疾病/自杀的家族病史,寻求感觉,对惩罚的敏感性,孕产妇过度保护),但是在进行多次比较调整后,这些因素不再有意义。在寻求帮助的主流青年人口中,跨临床和环境因素的文化差异似乎很小。少数相关因素在CALD和非CALD参与者之间有所区分(儿童时期的精神疾病诊断,精神疾病/自杀的家族病史,寻求感觉,对惩罚的敏感性,孕产妇过度保护),但是在进行多次比较调整后,这些因素不再有意义。在寻求帮助的主流青年人口中,跨临床和环境因素的文化差异似乎很小。
