Abstract
This article focuses on the development of Ireland's first National Student Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Framework for Higher Education. There is growing concern for student mental health in higher education nationally and globally. The majority of students are aged between 18 and 24, which is identified as a high-risk group for mental health difficulties. Recent surveys of student mental illness, mental distress, and low well-being have been recognized by the World Health Organization, the Union of Students in Ireland National Report on Student Mental Health in Third Level Education, the My World survey and the My World 2 study. The Higher Education Authority in Ireland made a commitment to the Department of Health Connecting for Life (Ireland's National Strategy to Reduce Suicide 2015-2020) to form national guidelines for suicide prevention in higher education. In order to deliver on this commitment, The National Student Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Framework was developed. The Framework is informed by international evidence and was the product of a collaborative cross sector and cross disciplinary team including health professionals, government representatives, educators, students, policy makers, community organizations, researchers and clinicians.
期刊介绍:
The international journal Distributed Computing provides a forum for original and significant contributions to the theory, design, specification and implementation of distributed systems.
Topics covered by the journal include but are not limited to:
design and analysis of distributed algorithms;
multiprocessor and multi-core architectures and algorithms;
synchronization protocols and concurrent programming;
distributed operating systems and middleware;
fault-tolerance, reliability and availability;
architectures and protocols for communication networks and peer-to-peer systems;
security in distributed computing, cryptographic protocols;
mobile, sensor, and ad hoc networks;
internet applications;
concurrency theory;
specification, semantics, verification, and testing of distributed systems.
In general, only original papers will be considered. By virtue of submitting a manuscript to the journal, the authors attest that it has not been published or submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. However, papers previously presented in conference proceedings may be submitted in enhanced form. If a paper has appeared previously, in any form, the authors must clearly indicate this and provide an account of the differences between the previously appeared form and the submission.
