Abstract: This study evaluates the Theory of Planned Behavior’s ability to predict and explain academics’ research engagement behaviors using structural equation modeling. The results of a survey of 412 academics from the Philippines show that attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control significantly and positively predict intention to engage in research, and intention predicts actual research behavior. The model showed acceptable goodness of fit: SRMR = 0.5, CFI = .94, NFI = .9, RMSEA = .05. The findings provide support for the use of the Theory of Planned Behavior in understanding and predicting research-related behaviors. The results of the study have implications for university research policies and programs.

Abstract: A critical aspect of strengthening graduate-level clinical and counseling psychology training in cultural competence is to build capacity among faculty teaching in these programs to provide effective training. We addressed this need through an international collaboration between a university in India and another in the United States that included faculty travel to another country, peer mentoring groups, and review of curricula. This article describes faculty perceptions of this program and its perceived impact on their professional development and outlines curricular and research outcomes that resulted from the program. Across 4 years, a total of eight faculty visits took place with Indian faculty ( n = 13) visiting the United States and US faculty ( n = 11) visiting India. After each visit, faculty at both institutions responded to open-ended questions about the usefulness of these visits and completed a rating scale at the end of the program through an online survey. Faculty from both countries indicated that the visits contributed to enhanced cultural awareness and sensitivity by broadening their perspectives and learning about cultural similarities and differences. Indian faculty described learning about new pedagogical methods and enhanced motivation to engage in research and publish, along with new collaborative opportunities. US faculty described incorporating cultural competence more centrally in their teaching and clinical supervision through increased commitment, as well as inclusion of more global and diverse content and assignments aimed to increase students’ cultural competence. These responses provide preliminary support for the usefulness of cultural immersion experiences for faculty professional development.

Abstract: Social entrepreneurship is gaining increased prominence internationally as a vehicle for addressing a range of socioeconomic issues, including access to decent and inclusive work. In Vietnam, such enterprises have become a key component of the country’s sustainable development strategy, with national competitions awarding start-up prizes for a few of the many young would-be social entrepreneurs. Competitions like this risk a sense of broken promise, in which unsuccessful and thereby disappointed applicants quit the sector prematurely. Recent research in Vietnam highlights a pivotal retentive support role for mentoring these promising social entrepreneurs, based on traditional village values of cooperation. Research shows these values to be central to social entrepreneurial resilience and success in Vietnam. It further suggests an extant network of successful social entrepreneurs who could mentor young runners-up, so that their ideas, energy, and career pathways are not lost. A national network of social entrepreneurs has been formed; and its mentors have indicated their willingness to support young people. This brief thereby proposes a next step: creation of a pro bono nationwide academy, dispersed in location but united in purpose, to support social entrepreneurship among Vietnamese youth.

Abstract. The aim of the present study was to address the psychopathological impact of the interruption of traditional mental care during the COVID-19 lockdown on a group of public psychology service (PPS) users. For this purpose, a sample of 17 individuals requesting psychotherapeutic treatment within an Italian PPS was selected. Symptoms of psychopathologies were measured before and after the lockdown period. The investigation explored the effects of remote support, and the possible influence of adverse childhood experiences, dissociation, somatoform symptoms, and maladaptive personality traits. The results of this study showed that patients who continued with their psychological treatment by means of remote technological supports, resumed their in-person sessions showing a significant reduction of global psychopathological symptoms, anxiety, and phobic anxiety. The results also suggest that dissociative tendencies and maladaptive personality traits prevented symptomatic improvement. Finally, it was found that symptomatic improvement was favored by an absence of subjective distress during the lockdown. Implications for public services are discussed.

Abstract: Collectivist values may influence one’s display of self-esteem. Past research has established an association between psychological well-being and individuals’ appraisal of their value as a member of a social group, self-evaluation as an individual, and perception of others’ evaluation of their group (collective self-esteem). This study examined collective self-esteem, specifically whether private and public collective self-esteem and member self-esteem predicted psychological well-being alongside individual self-esteem in a sample ( N = 416) of university students in Ghana. A linear regression tested the predictive ability of collective self-esteem for depression and anxiety symptoms. The results indicated that while individual self-esteem was related to lower levels of anxiety and depression symptoms, collective self-esteem was unrelated. In our sample of Ghanaian students, these findings suggest that personal self-esteem is more meaningful than collective self-esteem for their psychological well-being. This knowledge is instrumental for informing mental health interventions for this group.

Abstract. Background: Stress among medical students requires careful attention and support to help them overcome it and avoid untoward consequences. Identifying the students’ attitudes and limitations in approaching professional counseling services would help provide targeted solutions and formulate personalized counseling plans. Objective: To compare the perceived needs, benefits, and barriers experienced by medical undergraduate students for availing professional counseling services based on prior counseling exposure, year of medical education, and gender. Methodology: This cross-sectional research included 239 students, aged 17–23 years, studying in the first and final years of undergraduate medical training. Their attitudes, perceived benefits, and barriers to approaching counseling were assessed using the Counseling Need Assessment Questionnaire (CNAQ). Differences in these parameters were compared among the students based on their gender, prior counseling exposure, and year of medical education. Statistical analysis was done using χ2 test and Goodman–Kruskal analysis, and p value < .05 indicated statistical significance. Results: Fifty-one percentage of the students accepted the need for counseling, but 44% expressed hesitation in approaching a professional counselor. No significant gender differences were noted in counseling-related attitudes, barriers, or perceived benefits ( p > .05). However, students with prior exposure to counseling and those in their first year of study were significantly more oriented to seek counseling ( p < .01), but more reluctant too in availing professional help ( p < .05). Conclusion: Students with prior exposure and first-year students were more open to expressing the need for counseling; however, first-year students were more hesitant for availing the same.

Abstract. Objective: Lack of governmental funding/infrastructure for mental health has created urgent need for effective training in evidence-based treatments for trauma in the Caribbean for under-resourced providers. Furthermore, impacts of the COVID-19 health crisis on providers’ implementation of skills in this region are currently unknown. Method: We examined impacts of a one-day training workshop for stakeholders in the Caribbean providing psychoeducation on trauma and PTSD and training in short-term interventions. Participants ( n = 46) were surveyed at preworkshop and postworkshop and at 3-month and 6-month follow-up (which coincided with the first 6 months of the COVID-19 pandemic) to assess retention of any changes in perceived knowledge about trauma/effective treatments and subsequent skill implementation. Results: Participants reported significant pre–post workshop increases in perceived knowledge (pre M = 31.61, post M = 44.63) about trauma and its effective treatments ( t[45] = −6.17, p < .001). This perceived knowledge was significantly maintained over time (3M M = 42.66, 6M M = 40.75). Furthermore, participants reported significant use of several of the strategies taught at the workshop at follow-up. Higher reported emotional distress related to the pandemic was associated with lower implementation at 6M, despite significant retention in perceived knowledge from the workshop ( B = −0.02, β = −1.55, p < .05). Conclusions: Brief trauma-focused trainings can be helpful for providers in under-resourced global settings with observable impact on implementation practices over time, but providers’ emotional distress stemming from public health crises can influence practice behaviors. Subsequent impacts on policy/budget allocations are discussed.
摘要目标:由于缺乏精神卫生方面的政府资金/基础设施，因此迫切需要对加勒比地区资源不足的提供者进行有效的循证创伤治疗培训。此外，COVID-19卫生危机对该地区提供者实施技能的影响目前尚不清楚。方法:我们研究了加勒比地区提供创伤和创伤后应激障碍心理教育和短期干预培训的利益相关者为期一天的培训讲习班的影响。在研讨会前和研讨会后以及3个月和6个月的随访(恰逢COVID-19大流行的前6个月)对参与者(n = 46)进行了调查，以评估对创伤/有效治疗和随后技能实施的感知知识的任何变化的保留情况。结果:参与者报告了研讨会前后对创伤及其有效治疗的感知知识显著增加(前M = 31.61，后M = 44.63) (t[45] = - 6.17, p < .001)。随着时间的推移，这种感知知识显著保持不变(3M M = 42.66, 6M M = 40.75)。此外，与会者报告在后续行动中大量使用了讲习班所教的几种策略。与大流行相关的较高的情绪困扰报告与较低的执行率相关，尽管在讲习班中感知到的知识有显着保留(B = - 0.02， β = - 1.55, p < 0.05)。结论:在资源匮乏的全球环境中，简短的以创伤为重点的培训可以帮助提供者，随着时间的推移，对实施实践有明显的影响，但提供者因公共卫生危机而产生的情绪困扰会影响实践行为。讨论了对政策/预算分配的后续影响。

Abstract: Using the lens of interpretative phenomenological analysis, this study explored the community engagement experiences of six social entrepreneurs working with rural communities in the Philippines and how they made meaning of their community engagement experience. Data were gathered through semistructured interviews. The findings illustrate how engaging with rural communities through social entrepreneurship is a way for the entrepreneurs to help communities uplift their economic condition and to achieve other social goals such as improvement of the community’s quality of life and environmental sustainability. Social entrepreneurship was also a way to help empower communities as well as build their capabilities, shape positive values through culture building, and nurture relationships. Implications of the study to social enterprise research and policy, community engagement programs, and leader development are discussed.
