Area of Science:

  • Mental Health Literacy
  • Health Misinformation
  • Clinical Interventions

Background:

  • Social media health misinformation disproportionately affects individuals with mental illness.
  • This misinformation increases healthcare avoidance and stigma.
  • Effective interventions are needed to improve mental health literacy in clinical settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Identify evidence-based interventions to enhance mental health literacy.
  • Counter health misinformation among patients with mental illness.
  • Evaluate interventions within clinical settings.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature search of PubMed, Embase, and CINAHL (2015-2025).
  • Inclusion of studies on adult populations focusing on health literacy, mental illness, and patient education.
  • Appraisal of 13 studies using the Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practices Evidence Rating Scale.

Main Results:

  • Effective interventions incorporated audiovisual tools, routine appointment integration, and health literacy assessments.
  • Most studies reported significant improvements in health literacy, anxiety, and depression.
  • Heterogeneity in intervention tools and lack of theoretical frameworks limited generalizability.

Conclusions:

  • Brief, accessible audiovisual interventions integrated into standard care improve patient understanding and emotional well-being.
  • Future research should prioritize theory-based designs and validated, mental health-specific outcome measures.
  • Clinical integration of these interventions shows promise for combating misinformation and improving patient outcomes.
