MINDFULNESS SKILL-BASED GROUP THERAPIES FOR UNIVERSITY STUDENTS WITH STRESS/ANXIETY
🕘 - MINUTES ​

ETH1819-0489, approved by Department of Psychology Research Ethics Committee, City University London

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) group and a Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) group for individuals with anxiety.

ACT and MBSR have been shown to be effective in helping a range of individuals with anxiety and we want to find out whether it will be useful in a university setting, so if you are a student at a London university and there is an aspect of your life that you would like to improve, we believe that a psychological intervention may be of benefit to you.

CARE EXPERIENCED STUDENTS IN HIGHER EDUCATION
🕘 - MINUTES ​

REC1127, approved by the UCL Research Ethics Committee

Today, more and more young who have lived in foster care or residential care as a child are being encouraged and supported to continue with their education, but a recent study has shown that care-experienced young people at university are more likely leave before completing their course than other students. Researchers at University College London (UCL) have been commissioned by the Access and Widening Participation Team at UCL to carry out a study into how young people from a care background experience Higher Education. The aim of this study is to understand how care leavers experience higher education and how they can be better supported to complete their course.

We would like to speak to care leavers who are currently in their second or final year of a degree course and those who have previously attended university but did not complete their course. We would like to involve young people from a range of universities across London and the South East.

THE HYPE PROJECT: IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF YOUNG PEOPLE
🕘 30 MINUTES ​​

Ethically approved by the King's College London Research Ethics Committee (REC Reference Number: HR-17/18-7535); funded by the Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre, National Institute for Health Research

The HYPE (Improving the Health of Young PeoplE) Project is an online recruitment, risk assessment, and resource platform for young people (aged 16 and over). The Project is aimed at improving the understanding of problems affecting young people’s health, increasing young peoples’ involvement in research and improving access to online and community, social and health-related resources. We hope to use the project to empower individuals within their neighbourhoods and communities by providing an environment to voice their opinions and contribute to a discussion on health inequalities - and work towards reducing these inequalities. 

To take part, we need young people to complete a 30 minute (approximately) online survey.

The HYPE Project online platform also offers signposting to relevant charities and organisations, self-help materials and information about community activities and events. Access to all the resources is free regardless of whether the young person takes part in the research survey. 

For more information about the project or to sign up, please go to https://hypekcl.com or you can contact us via email at hype@kcl.ac.uk.

GLAD: GENETIC LINKS TO ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION
🕘 30 MINUTES ​​

What is the GLAD Study?
The Genetic Links to Anxiety and Depression (GLAD) Study launched this September and aims to recruit over 40,000 individuals. This is the world’s largest study of depression and anxiety and we hope to investigate the genetic, environmental and social risk factors for these disorders. Anyone aged 16 years or older who lives in England and has experienced anxiety or depression during their lifetime is encouraged to sign up. Participants will facilitate important future research by joining a recontactable database and the National Institute for Health Research Mental Health BioResource.
 
Why is it important?
Depression and anxiety are common but complex disorders and research into this requires a very large sample size. In the UK, more than a quarter of students report having a mental health problem, the most common of which are depression and anxiety. Psychological therapy, antidepressant and anti-anxiety drug treatments are more available than ever before, but only around half of those treated respond well. Through better understanding of mental health genetics, new and more effective treatment options can be developed, and healthcare professionals will be better equipped to predict which treatments work for specific types of patients. So far, over 40 genetic links for depression and anxiety have been identified and researchers know that 30-40% of depression and anxiety risk is genetic and 60-70% is environmental. However, current and previous mental health research has been limited by the access to volunteers with these disorders.
 
How can you help?
Taking part in the GLAD Study involves four simple steps. Firstly, you register online at www.gladstudy.org.uk and read the information sheet. Then you complete an online consent form, which is explained in more detail by an online animation. Following this you complete a 30-minute online eligibility questionnaire about your experiences of depression and/or anxiety to confirm you qualify to take part. Finally, if you meet the eligibility criteria you will be sent a saliva DNA kit in the post, along with a freepost envelope to send it back to us. You can get involved from the comfort of your own home!

NEW SURVEY FOR HEALTHCARE PRACTITIONERS: TALKING WITH YOUNG PEOPLE ABOUT THEIR MENTAL HEALTH AND DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY USE ​
​​🕘 15 MINUTES ​

Heavy digital technology use amongst young people has been linked to poor mental health and may pose risks for those who self-harm, are suicidal or have eating disorders. But digital technology can also be helpful to young people’s mental health. For example, it can be used to assess risk, deliver therapeutic interventions and to help clinicians build relationships with service users.
​
It has also been recommended by the Royal College of Psychiatrists that more mental health practitioners talk to younger patients about their digital technology use.

Our research explores questions around how young people’s digital technology use could be harnessed during mental health consultations with young people, to improve the delivery of care and to manage risk. As a first step, we want to scope current practice and gather practitioners’ views about what might be beneficial, feasible and acceptable.
​
We are keen to hear from anyone working in statutory and non-statutory services to complete our 20-minute questionnaire.
 
The survey can be found here
 
All responses eligible to be entered into a £50 prize draw!
 
The study is led by Dr Lucy Biddle and the University of Bristol and is joint funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC), Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), and the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) as part of their ‘Adolescence, Mental Health and the Developing Mind’ programme of research.

​Keep in Touch (KIT) Study
🕘 - Minutes

In this study, we are trialling an online self-administered psychosensory technique called Havening. We think that this research is really important at this time when COVID-19 is causing anxiety for so many people. We will ask participants to use short videos of Havening practitioners to guide them as they self-administer the Havening technique. This will involve a variety of activities including stroking own arms and hands, whilst performing self-affirming and anxiety reducing tasks. The videos can be used as little or as often and wherever they chose. 

Participants will be asked to complete short online questionnaires about their mood, mental health and wellbeing.

Investigating factors that may influence whether people with experiences of psychosis engage with mental health services
🕘 25 MINUTES

The research has been granted ethical approval through Lancaster University's Ethics Committee.

We are trying to find out what influences whether people experiencing psychosis decide to use mental health services or not.

Psychosis might be seeing or hearing things (voices) that other people cannot, or having strong beliefs that others think are very unusual. Experiencing psychosis is sometimes linked with diagnoses like "schizophrenia", "schizoaffective disorder" or "delusional disorder", but not necessarily.

The study involves participants completing a short online survey, and there are five £30 Amazon vouchers to be won.

Eating Disorder Service Provision for University Students - Professionals SurveY
🕘 5 MINUTES

From our work in this area and previous research, we know that accessing professional support can be challenging. We know that students can find it difficult to receive continuous health care as move between home and university. We also know that good, early support is important.There have been many calls for universities and GP services to provide and commission specialist support appropriate for the needs of university students. Student Minds, are launching an audit to establish to what extent appropriate services are available to support students with eating disorders.

This research project will form one component of that audit. While we are consulting students, to gain an insight into their experience, we are very keen to hear from professionals involved in supporting students, providing or coordinating treatment. The focus of this consultation is to establish from professionals:
1. To what extent do students with experience of eating disorders receive appropriate, sufficient and timely treatment and support;
2. What are the barriers and facilitators to provision of appropriate support; 
3. Are there examples of good practice in supporting students with eating disorders at university. 

We are inviting professionals with experience of supporting students with eating disorders to take part. This might be in terms of providing or coordinating treatment. Alternatively, it may be in a less formal capacity.
