Bullying

A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development.

Area of Science:

  • Educational Psychology
  • Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Classroom-based mental health literacy (MHL) curricula improve mental health knowledge, attitudes, and help-seeking behaviors.
  • Young adolescents (ages 10-14) are a receptive audience for MHL education due to their developmental stage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify universal, school-based MHL programs for students aged 10-14 years.
  • To analyze curriculum implementation, content, and measured outcomes of these programs.

Main Methods:

  • A scoping review was conducted.
  • Thirty-one articles describing 24 distinct MHL programs were included.
  • Programs were evaluated for curriculum details, implementation strategies, and outcome measures.

Main Results:

  • Existing MHL programs show promising results in improving mental health knowledge, attitudes, and help-seeking behaviors.
  • Program content and educational strategies were highly variable, with no two curricula identical.
  • Studies indicate positive impacts on overall student mental health.

Conclusions:

  • Universal, school-based MHL programs effectively enhance mental health knowledge among middle school students.
  • The diversity of current programs makes direct outcome comparison challenging.
  • Further research is essential to optimize MHL curriculum design and implementation for greater effectiveness.
