Publication Metadata only How to overcome barriers to publication in low- and middle-income countries: Recommendations from early career psychiatrists and researchers from around the world(2021-12-01T00:00:00Z) El Halabi, Sarah; Abbas, Zargham; Adesokun, Fisayo; Adiukwu, Frances; Ashrafi, Agah; de Filippis, Renato; Handuleh, Jibril; Jaguga, Florence; Karaliuniene, Ruta; KILIÇ, ÖZGE; Nagendrappa, Sachin; Ojeahere, Margaret; Ogunnubi, Oluseun Peter; Ori, Dorottya; Orsolini, Laura; Pereira-Sanchez, Victor; Pinto da Costa, Mariana; Ransing, Ramdas; Shoib, Sheikh; Ullah, Irfan; Vadivel, Ramya; Vahdani, Bita; Ramalho, Rodrigo; KILIÇ, ÖZGEThere is an increasing movement toward international collaboration and global discussion in mental health. If provided with the right opportunities, early career psychiatrists (ECPs) and researchers in mental health can contribute meaningfully to this discussion. However, they often experience multiple barriers when attempting to add their voices via academic publications. We represent a diverse group of ECPs and researchers from all six World Health Organization regions. In this piece, we discuss these barriers, grounded in our first-hand experiences, and put forth a series of recommendations. The most potentially beneficial and immediate way forward is ensuring a much-needed mentorship and support, particularly for low- and middle-income countries. In this regard, international organizations, especially those with a particular focus on education, such as the Section on Education in Psychiatry of the World Psychiatric Association, can play a pivotal role.Publication Metadata only Can COVID-19 related mental health issues be measured?(2020-08-01T00:00:00Z) Ransing, Ramdas; Ramalho, Rodrigo; Orsolini, Laura; Adiukwu, Frances; Gonzalez-Diaz, Jairo M.; Larnaout, Amine; da Costa, Mariana Pinto; Grandinetti, Paolo; Bytyci, Drita Gashi; Shalbafan, Mohammadreza; Patil, Ishwar; Nofal, Marwa; Pereira-Sanchez, Victor; Kilic, ÖZGE; KILIÇ, ÖZGEPublication Open Access COVID-19 related mental health issues: a narrative review of psychometric properties of scales and methodological concerns in scale development(2021-01-01T00:00:00Z) Ransing, Ramdas; Dashi, Elona; Rehman, Sajjadur; Mehta, Varun; Chepure, Ashish; KILIÇ, ÖZGE; Hayatudeen, Nafisatu; Orsolini, Laura; Vahdani, Bita; Adiukwu, Frances; Gonzalez-Diaz, Jairo M; Larnaout, Amine; Pinto da Costa, Mariana; Grandinetti, Paolo; Soler-Vidal, Joan; Bytyçi, Drita Gashi; Shalbafan, Mohammadreza; Nofal, Marwa; Pereira-Sanchez, Victor; Ramalho, Rodrigo; KILIÇ, ÖZGE© The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists 2021.Objectives: The global crisis of COVID-19 and its consequential strict public health measures placed around the world have impacted mental health. New scales and tools have been developed to measure these mental health effects. This narrative review assesses the psychometric properties of these scales and tools and methodological aspects of their development. Methods: PubMed, PubMed Central, and Google Scholar were searched for articles published from 15 May 2020 to 15 August 2020. This search used three groups of terms (-tool- OR -scale- AND -mental- OR -psychological-; AND -COVID-19- OR -coronavirus-). The identified scales were further evaluated for their psychometric properties and methodological aspects of their development. Results: Though the studies developing these scales (n = 12) have demonstrated their robust psychometric properties, some methodological concerns are noteworthy. Most of the scales were validated using internet-based surveys, and detailed descriptions of the mode of administration, sampling process, response rates, and augmentation strategies were missing. Conclusions: The heterogeneous and inadequate reporting of methods adopted to evaluate the psychometric properties of the identified scales can limit their utility in clinical and research settings. We suggest developing guidelines and checklists to improve the design and testing, and result in reporting of online-administered scales to assess the mental health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.Publication Metadata only Yoga for COVID-19 and natural disaster related mental health issues: Challenges and perspectives(2020-10-01T00:00:00Z) Ransing, Ramdas; Pinto da Costa, Mariana; Adiukwu, Frances; Grandinetti, Paolo; Schuh Teixeira, Andre Luiz; KILIÇ, ÖZGE; Soler-Vidal, Joan; Ramalho, Rodrigo; KILIÇ, ÖZGEPublication Open Access Fear During COVID-19 pandemic: Fear of COVID-19 Scale Measurement Properties(2021-09-01T00:00:00Z) Ullah, Irfan; Jaguga, Florence.; Ransing, Ramdas; Pereira-Sanchez, Victor; Orsolini, Laura; Ori, Dorottya; de Filippis, Renato; Pakpour, Amir H.; Adiukwu, Frances; KILIÇ, ÖZGE; Hayatudeen, Nafisatu; Shoib, Sheikh; Ojeahere, Margaret Isioma; Nagendrappa, Sachin; Handuleh, Jibril I.
