Mental Health Service Users in Research: Critical Sociological Perspectives

Editat de Patsy Staddon
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 ian 2015
This collection of essays discusses the value of mental health service users contributing their personal experiences to research in the field and the difficulties they face in doing so. Exploring the importance of autobiography, the contributors examine how our identity shapes the knowledge we produce and ask why voices that challenge beliefs about health and treatment are often silenced. They also consider the imbalance of power and opportunity for service users, as well as the stigmatizing nature of these services, as human rights issues. Ultimately, the essays here stress the importance of research approaches that involve mutual understanding among researchers, clinicians, and service users.

Recenzii

“For myself, as a survivor researcher, the most sparkling aspect of this edition assembled by Staddon is its turn away from psychiatry towards sociology. Less cheering but no less important is the plain insight into the unidealised picture of service user involvement in research that this collection provides. . . . Highly diverse.”

“A thought-provoking and insightful text.”

“A useful reference book for health care professionals in pre and post qualification training, and for all those interested in service user research.”

“A testament to how far the survivor movement has come in the long struggle to get the experiences of mental health services users taken seriously in the production of knowledge. . . . This book draws on the experiences of key contributors to this area and provides a comprehensive and accessible discussion of the challenges and tensions within mental health research.”
