Psykiatrisesta sairaalasta työelämään? : nuorten aikuisten mielenterveyskuntoutujien kokemuksia

2014

Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, miten psykiatrisesta sairaalasta kotiutuneet nuoret aikuiset kokevat työn merkityksen ja miten heidän jatkosuunnitelmansa olivat edenneet erityisesti työn tai muun toiminnan osalta. Tutkimuksessa haastateltiin yhdeksän alle 35-vuotiasta sairaalasta noin puoli vuotta aiemmin kotiutunutta kuntoutujaa. Haastattelut tehtiin teemahaastatteluina ja aineisto analysoitiin sisällönanalyysillä. Mielenterveyskuntoutujat kokivat työn tai muun toiminnan merkityksen tärkeänä erityisesti arjen rytmittämisen kannalta. Myös toimeentulolla oli oma merkityksensä, joskin suurin osa heistä sai tulonsa vielä sairaus- tai eläke-etuuksina. Monetkaan haastatelluista eivät ol…

From treatment of mental disorders to the treatment of difficult life situations: A hypothesis and rationale

2023

The group-level symptom-reduction model of mental health care emphasizes predetermined treatment guidelines for those mental and social difficulties that are diagnosable as mental health disorders on the basis of predetermined diagnostic criteria. The model have produced generalizable information to support medical decision-making for symptom reduction. However, it may have also increased the reification of diagnostic labels, and in so doing medicalized and stigmatized complex human-life experiences, with a lack of attention to a range of social determinants and existential factors associated with mental health. Since symptom-reduction model can easily lose sight of essential non-technical …

School achievement in adolescence and the risk of mental disorders in early adulthood: a Finnish nationwide register study

2023

AbstractSchool grades in adolescence have been linked to later psychiatric outcomes, but large-scale nationwide studies across the spectrum of mental disorders are scarce. In the present study, we examined the risk of a wide array of mental disorders in adulthood, as well as the risk of comorbidity, associated with school achievement in adolescence. We used population-based cohort data comprising all individuals born in Finland over the period 1980–2000 (N = 1,070,880) who were followed from age 15 or 16 until a diagnosis of mental disorder, emigration, death, or December 2017, whichever came first. Final grade average from comprehensive school was the exposure, and the first diagnosed ment…

Why do adults seek treatment for gaming (disorder)? A qualitative study

2022

Despite gaming disorder now being diagnosable by the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) as a new mental disorder due to addictive behaviors, little is known about the concrete reasons for which people seek treatment for their videogame play. As the current literature is mainly based on children and adolescents, there is a strong need for better understanding adult treatment-seekers in particular. This preregistered study responds to the gap in research by qualitatively investigating the reasons for treatment-seeking with 110 participants who had sought help for their videogame play from a Finnish treatment program. We applied template analysis to the open-ended data, which co…

Ontological diversity in gaming disorder measurement: a nationally representative registered report

2022

Gaming-related health problems have been researched since the 1980s with numerous different ontologies as reference systems, from self-assessed ‘game addiction’ to ‘pathological gambling’ (in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders [DSM]-IV), ‘internet gaming disorder’ (in the third section of the DSM-5) and most recently ‘gaming disorder’ (in the International Classification of Diseases [ICD]-11). Our goal was to investigate how screening instruments that derive from different ontologies differ in identifying associated problem groups. By using four central screening instruments, each representing a different ontological basis, we hypothesized differences and similarities…

Adolescents’ Stress and Depressive symptoms and Their Associations with Psychological Flexibility before Educational Transition

2023

Introduction: Relatively little is known about individual differences in adolescent psychological flexibility and its associations with symptoms of stress and depression. This study examined different profiles of adolescent stress and depressive symptoms and their associations with developing psychological flexibility before the critical educational transition. Methods: The data were derived from a general sample of 740 Finnish ninth-grade adolescents (Mage = 15.7 years, 57% female) who were assessed twice during the final grade of their basic education. The data were analyzed using growth mixture modeling. Results: Four profiles of stress and depressive symptoms were identified during a sc…

Mitä filosofi tekee psykiatrisella klinikalla, Thomas Fuchs?

2019

Saksassa Heidelbergin yliopistoklinikalla on pitkät perinteet filosofian ja psykiatrian yhteistyölle. Fenomenologisen psykiatrian ja psykoterapian tutkimusyksikköä johtava professori Thomas Fuchs kertoo, miten fenomenologista tutkimusta tehdään psykiatrisessa sairaalassa ja kuinka hänen omat filosofiset sitoumuksensa tulevat esille potilastyössä. Keskustelumme klinikalla valotti hänen ajattelunsa pääpiirteitä kehollisuudesta, tunteiden filosofiasta ja tiedostamattomasta. Fuchs käsittää tunteet vuorovaikutteisina, ruumiillisina ja tilallisina ilmiöinä ja väittää, ettei tiedostamaton sijaitse psyyken syvyyksissä vaan on kehollisesti eletty ja koettu. nonPeerReviewed

Psychotherapists’ views on triggering factors for psychological disorders

2022

AbstractTriggering factors play an important role in the development of psychological disorders. Practicing psychotherapists have valuable knowledge on psychological disorders and since their views on triggering factors have not been reported in the literature, triggers were addressed in this study from psychotherapists’ perspectives. The following three main issues were examined: definitions of triggers, examples of the most recurrent triggers and the idea of a common trigger for psychological disorders. Sixteen psychotherapists agreed to participate in the study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted in person and the data collected were analyzed using frame analysis. Frame analysis a…
