Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is set to explore current cutting-edge developments in psychology and mental health, focusing on the continuum from nation-wide and large-scale epidemiological research with robust study designs and methodological frameworks to the design and implementation of effective behavioral change interventions and clinical interventions and/or trials. It will highlight key mental health indicators and recent findings from different countries, while aspiring to depict how epidemiological findings can inform targeted interventions that address mental health issues at both the individual and population levels.
Topics include the identification of risk factors for mental illness, mapping or assessment of mental disorder burdens, the development and validation of novel scales and research tools in psychology, the role of preventive interventions, and the application of behavioral science to promote mental health and well-being across diverse populations. This issue aims to bridge research and practice, offering insights into translating data-driven evidence into impactful interventions.
