The protocol for the systematic review was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42018095519) in May 2018. Recent studies that aimed to evaluate preventative interventions for common mental health problems (depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD and OCD)4 were identified through a series of electronic searches conducted in PubMed, PsychINFO, CINAHL, Cochrane and OpenGrey databases. Search terms were a combination of terms in the title or abstract indicative of adults, non-clinical populations, mental healt...
Inclusion and exclusion criteria
To be eligible for inclusion, studies had to be published between January 2008 and May 2018 (last search date 18 May 2018), involve evaluation (using at least one measurement scale) of an intervention with a non-clinical adult population (mean age of 16–65 without a mental health diagnosis) and have a primary aim of improving mental health and preventing a common mental health problem. This included universal, selective and indicated mental health prevention intervention.5 Studies were exclud...
Record screening
Initial title and abstract screening were conducted by a single researcher (V.Z.) supervised by J.B. The full text of articles included from the initial screening were then screened according to the inclusion criteria by both V.Z. and a second independent reviewer (E.S. or E.U.). Conflicts were discussed within the study team, and if necessary, resolved by J.B. and E.U.
Identification of prevention evaluation studies
Searches identified a total of 11 962 records, 1911 duplicate records were excluded leaving 10 051 records eligible for initial screening. Of these, 9222 records were found to be irrelevant at the title and abstract screening stage, leaving 829 full-text studies eligible for secondary screening. Of these, a further 712 studies were deemed ineligible due to not meeting one or more of the inclusion criteria. Most studies were excluded due to prevention of common mental health problems not being...
Description of included studies
Characteristics of included studies are summarized in table 1. Identified studies took place mainly in the USA or Canada (41%, n = 52), used selective approaches (targeted to groups or populations known to have higher risk) (54%, n = 69) and 25% (n= 32) were targeted toward pregnant women or new mothers. Most approaches were based on cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) (21%, n = 27), followed by combined interventions comprising a mix of approaches (e.g. CBT, psychoeducation, peer support etc...
Description of common mental health measurement scales
Included measurement tools were developed between 1953 and 2010 (median =1994). Just over one-third (34%, n = 22) were developed for use (or recommended by developers for use) in both clinical and non-clinical populations, 26% (n = 17) for the general population, 23% (n = 15) for clinical populations and 14% (n= 9) for specific sub-groups such as new mothers, military members, trauma survivors or individuals with specific chronic illnesses. Sixty-five unique measurement tools which measured m...
The present study provides an overview of the measures used to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions that prevent common mental health problems. It gives insight into the range of outcome measures used, and the ones most frequently used. This information is a first step in developing a potential future common outcomes framework for measuring ...
