Summary
Healthcare students often avoid mental health support due to stigma. Understanding their help-seeking behavior is crucial for developing effective interventions to encourage seeking care.
Area of Science:
- Mental Health Research
- Healthcare Education
- Concept Analysis
Background:
- Mental health issues are prevalent among healthcare students.
- Stigma surrounding mental illness deters students from seeking help.
- Understanding help-seeking behavior in this population is limited.
Purpose of the Study:
- To clarify the concept of help-seeking behavior in healthcare students.
- To inform the development of strategies encouraging help-seeking.
- To address the gap in concept-analysis research on this topic.
Main Methods:
- Concept analysis using Rodgers' evolutionary model.
- Focus on nursing and medical students' mental health help-seeking.
- Examination of subjective reports to conceptualize help-seeking.
Main Results:
- Key attributes include professional consultation, peer support, and self-treatment.
- Antecedents involve self-awareness, prior experiences, social perception, and service availability.
- Barriers encompass student-specific issues, misconceptions, stigma, cost, and cultural factors.
Conclusions:
- This study provides a new conceptualization of help-seeking behavior.
- Findings will aid in creating targeted interventions for healthcare students.
- Effective incentives can be developed to promote help-seeking among nursing and medical students.
