Abstract

Background

There is an increasing prevalence of mental health concerns reported among postsecondary students (PSS) and growing demands for care on campuses around the world, as such there is an urgent need for research and innovations in PSS mental health that engages PSS. However, best practices and guidelines for facilitating PSS engagement in research is lacking. To address this gap, we undertook this review to explore frameworks used for engaging with PSS in research focused on PSS mental health.

Methods

A scoping review of the academic literature was conducted. Frameworks used to engage PSS in mental health research were identified and categorized using the taxonomy of patient and public engagement by Greenhalgh et al. A list of barriers and facilitators to engaging with PSS was also identified and reported.

Results

Of the articles assessed for full-text screening (n = 167), 26 journal articles were included. Frameworks used for engaging PSS in mental health research were classified into one of the three categories from Greenhalgh et al.'s taxonomy: study-focused (n = 14), partnership-focused (n = 9) and power-focused (n = 3). No relevant frameworks were found for two categories: priority- and report-focused. Seven documents reported relational or process-related barriers and/or facilitators to engaging with PSS. Based on these findings, recommendations were drafted with PSS advisors on how to implement an engagement framework in PSS mental health research.

Conclusions

We identified existing practices outlined within frameworks used to engage PSS and barriers and facilitators to engage with PSS in mental health research. Based on the review findings and PSS advisors recommendations, a need for developing a comprehensive engagement framework specific to the PSS context was identified.

Patient or Public Contribution

The research team led consultations with a PSS advisory group for this review. Student advisors were actively engaged in data analysis, which included categorizing and drafting of recommendations, and the preparation of this manuscript.

用于吸引大专学生参与校园心理健康研究的框架：范围审查。

背景：据报道，在世界各地的校园中，大学生心理健康问题越来越普遍，对护理的需求也越来越大，因此迫切需要在大学生心理健康方面进行研究和创新。然而，目前缺乏促进PSS参与研究的最佳实践和指导方针。为了解决这一差距，我们进行了这篇综述，以探索在关注PSS心理健康的研究中参与PSS的框架。方法：对学术文献进行范围综述。Greenhalgh等人使用患者和公众参与分类法确定并分类了用于使PSS参与心理健康研究的框架。还确定并报告了参与PSS的障碍和促进因素清单。结果：在进行全文筛选评估的文章中（n = 167），纳入了26篇期刊文章。根据Greenhalgh等人的分类，将PSS参与心理健康研究的框架分为三类：以研究为中心（n = 14）、以伙伴关系为中心（n = 9）和以权力为中心（n = 3）。没有为优先事项和以报告为重点这两类找到相关框架。七份文件报告了参与PSS的关系或流程相关障碍和/或促进因素。根据这些发现，与PSS顾问一起起草了关于如何在PSS心理健康研究中实施参与框架的建议。结论：我们确定了在用于参与PSS的框架内概述的现有实践，以及在心理健康研究中参与PSS的障碍和促进因素。根据审查结果和PSS顾问的建议，确定有必要制定针对PSS背景的全面参与框架。患者或公众贡献：研究小组为本综述与PSS顾问组进行了磋商。学生顾问积极参与数据分析，包括分类和起草建议，并准备了这份手稿。

期刊介绍： Health Expectations promotes critical thinking and informed debate about all aspects of patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) in health and social care, health policy and health services research including: • Person-centred care and quality improvement • Patients'' participation in decisions about disease prevention and management • Public perceptions of health services • Citizen involvement in health care policy making and priority-setting • Methods for monitoring and evaluating participation • Empowerment and consumerism • Patients'' role in safety and quality • Patient and public role in health services research • Co-production (researchers working with patients and the public) of research, health care and policy Health Expectations is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal publishing original research, review articles and critical commentaries. It includes papers which clarify concepts, develop theories, and critically analyse and evaluate specific policies and practices. The Journal provides an inter-disciplinary and international forum in which researchers (including PPIE researchers) from a range of backgrounds and expertise can present their work to other researchers, policy-makers, health care professionals, managers, patients and consumer advocates.
