So proud of the @lampresearchuk.bsky.social phd students who presented their work @psychologybath.bsky.social CMHD group today @nataliakika.bsky.social @sophiedallison.bsky.social @emmachubb.bsky.social

Lovely to have lunch with colleagues from @psychologybath.bsky.social yesterday! @harrietrose.bsky.social @sophiedallison.bsky.social and others all working as part of the @nihr.bsky.social Mental Health Research Group :-)

We need to involve people from all communities in mental health research. It’s #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek and the theme this year is COMMUNITY. 🧵 THREAD

Do you struggle with low mood, stress and worrying? Check out Project YES. You can choose from three single session interventions which could help you to learn more about dealing with low mood, stress, and worry Each online single session intervention will take about 15 mins tinyurl.com/3nje4fbm

This is a *key* new paper in the world of school mental health interventions A very large trial (N=6388) testing a universal CBT-based app for adolescent depression (13-14y) No effects found (on depression, anxiety, distress or insomnia) (🧵) mentalhealth.bmj.com/content/28/1...

Very pleased to see this paper published open access in BMC Psychology today, where we interviewed 24 young people to discover their thoughts towards online single-session interventions. It is the FIRST qualitative paper to focus on SSIs in UK-based young people 🤯 doi.org/10.1186/s403...

Young people increasingly turn to the internet for mental health support, but many struggle with overwhelming information and unclear reliability. Our #CanWeConnect study offers co-designed guidelines to improve online resources for YP. Explore the infographic: www.bath.ac.uk/publications....

🌟 Exciting News! Our study on our method of Gillick Competence assessment in online, anonymous surveys is published! Empowering 13-15-year-olds to self-consent could overcome barriers to low risk, impactful mental health intervention research. Learn more: bmjopen.bmj.com/content/15/3...

Check out this blog @nataliakika.bsky.social and I wrote recently for parents @wellatschool.bsky.social about where UK teens look for mental health information and support online

Excited to share a pre-print of the latest paper from the Can We Connect study, where we explore young people’s attitudes towards single session interventions. Despite all the available literature on SSIs, this seems to be the first in-depth, qualitative study! Feedback welcome 👇🏽 osf.io/mz5as

We are looking for new members for our Young Person's Advisory Group - please share to anyone who might be interested (and here's the link to sign up: bit.ly/LAMP-ypag)

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Really interesting review with valuable recommendations to improve co-production and co-design with young people - super relevant to our group’s YPAG work @marialoades.bsky.social @sophiedallison.bsky.social!

Calling all UK-based parents of teens! Help us explore how and where parents look for help online when they become worried about their teen’s mental health - the findings will help us design our single-session intervention to support parents 💻please email us [email protected] to take part!

I'm working as a research assistant and doing my PhD with LAMP, where I am researching how digital single session interventions could improve access to mental health support for young people from the global majority 🌎
