Despite high rates of mental health challenges, Asian Americans are less likely to seek out and receive school-based mental health services (SBMHSs) than their non-Asian peers. The Youth Mental Health First Aid (YMHFA) training is an 8-hr manualized public education program designed to educate adults on recognizing common mental health challenges among adolescents and intervening. However, no published research has evaluated YMHFA among Asian Americans. We culturally adapted YMHFA for Asian Americans (Asian American parents and youth workers) and used a pretest/posttest design to evaluate its effectiveness. Specifically, we (a) added one 2-hr session before the YMHFA to augment engagement with the curriculum and (b) contextualized the YMHFA curriculum content to ensure cultural sensitivity for Asian American participants. Thirty-one Asian immigrant parents (Mage = 45.55, SD = 3.6) and 24 Asian American youth workers (Mage = 23.17, SD = 3.67) participated in YMHFA. Participants' mental health literacy (MHL) and their confidence in using MHFA skills significantly increased after the training. Participants also participated in four focus groups after the training to share their experiences. Participants stated that they benefited from this training and suggested additional cultural adaptations to make the program more appropriate for Asian Americans. Culturally adapted YMHFA may be an effective way to promote MHL and engage Asian Americans in mental health services. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).

针对亚裔美国人的文化适应青少年心理健康急救培训。

尽管心理健康挑战率很高,但亚裔美国人寻求和接受学校心理健康服务 (SBMHS) 的可能性低于非亚裔同龄人。青少年心理健康急救 (YMHFA) 培训是一个 8 小时的手动公共教育计划,旨在教育成年人认识青少年常见的心理健康挑战并进行干预。然而,没有发表的研究评估亚裔美国人的 YMHFA。我们为亚裔美国人(亚裔美国父母和青年工人)在文化上调整了 YMHFA,并使用前测/后测设计来评估其有效性。具体来说,我们 (a) 在 YMHFA 之前增加了一个 2 小时的课程以增加对课程的参与度,并且 (b) 将 YMHFA 课程内容置于情境中,以确保亚裔美国人参与者的文化敏感性。31 名亚裔移民父母(Mage = 45.55,SD = 3.6)和 24 名亚裔美国青年工人(Mage = 23.17,SD = 3.67)参加了 YMHFA。培训后,参与者的心理健康素养 (MHL) 和使用 MHFA 技能的信心显着提高。培训结束后,参与者还参加了四个焦点小组,分享他们的经验。参与者表示,他们从这次培训中受益,并建议进行额外的文化调整,以使该计划更适合亚裔美国人。适应文化的 YMHFA 可能是促进 MHL 和让亚裔美国人参与心理健康服务的有效方式。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。心理健康素养 (MHL) 和他们对使用 MHFA 技能的信心在培训后显着提高。培训结束后,参与者还参加了四个焦点小组,分享他们的经验。参与者表示,他们从这次培训中受益,并建议进行额外的文化调整,以使该计划更适合亚裔美国人。适应文化的 YMHFA 可能是促进 MHL 和让亚裔美国人参与心理健康服务的有效方式。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。心理健康素养 (MHL) 和他们对使用 MHFA 技能的信心在培训后显着提高。培训结束后,参与者还参加了四个焦点小组,分享他们的经验。参与者表示,他们从这次培训中受益,并建议进行额外的文化调整,以使该计划更适合亚裔美国人。适应文化的 YMHFA 可能是促进 MHL 和让亚裔美国人参与心理健康服务的有效方式。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。参与者表示,他们从这次培训中受益,并建议进行额外的文化调整,以使该计划更适合亚裔美国人。适应文化的 YMHFA 可能是促进 MHL 和让亚裔美国人参与心理健康服务的有效方式。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。参与者表示,他们从这次培训中受益,并建议进行额外的文化调整,以使该计划更适合亚裔美国人。适应文化的 YMHFA 可能是促进 MHL 和让亚裔美国人参与心理健康服务的有效方式。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。
