    Abstract: Non-Western literature on the core competencies of mental health peer supporters remains limited. Therefore, we used a three-round Delphi study with peer supporters, service users (i.e. someone using peer support services) and mental health professionals to develop a core competency framework for peer supporters in the Chinese context. Results The final framework included 35 core competencies, the conceptual origins of which were local (14.3%), Western (20%) and both local and Western (65.7%). They were grouped into five categories in ascending peer supporter role specificity: (1) self-care and self-development, (2) general work ethics, (3) work with others, (4) work with service users and (5) peer support knowledge. Clinical implications A culturally valid mental health peer support competency framework can minimise role confusion and refine training and practice guidelines. In a Chinese context, peer supporters were valued as generic support companions, whereas functions highlighted in the West, such as role modelling, were perceived as less critical.

    Abstract: Community-based participatory research (CBPR), a bottom-up approach that community stakeholders and academics are involved equitably, is an effective approach for enhancing relevance and value in public health research and has gained popularity in recent decades. However, little is known about how CBPR can be used in mental health studies with older adults. This systematic review examined the current state of knowledge about how CBPR approach has been adopted in mental health research among older adults in different societies. According to the PRISMA guidelines, we searched five major databases and screened the literature using these criteria: 1) journal articles reporting use of CBPR in mental health research among older adults, 2) articles published in English language, 3) studies conducted in any settings with any mental health research. Initial search found 3,227 articles and preliminary screening identified 23 eligible articles. We found that around 90% of studies were conducted in the West. Most studies adopted CBPR to develop community-based mental health interventions or to revise current interventions or models while addressing the cultural needs of their studied population. Few studies adopted CBPR to evaluate existing mental health workshops or programmes. The extent of involvement of older adults in the CBPR approach varied across studies, from questionnaire design to programme evaluation. Our review uncovered ways of CBPR implementation across different societies and elements of successful implementation in CBPR practices in mental health research among older adults.

    Abstract: Although economic abuse is one of the major tactics of intimate partner violence, there has been a lack of empirical evidence on the factors associated with economic abuse and its mental well-being outcomes in Chinese population. This study aimed to identify risk factors for and mental well-being of economic abuse in Chinese population. This was a cross-sectional household survey with 504 Chinese adults in Hong Kong. It was found that unmarried individuals and individuals with tertiary education or above were at risk of economic abuse. Moreover, there were significant association between economic abuse experience and anxiety, depression, and psychosomatic symptoms. Resilience was the protective factor against anxiety, depression, and psychosomatic symptoms. The findings were discussed alongside with Chinese culture.

    Abstract: Whilst traditional mental health literacy programmes utilized a top-down approach, no bottom-up community-based participatory research (CBPR) model had been used to promote mental health literacy among older adults. Moreover, the existing CBPR model was developed in the West and might not be applicable in Chinese communities given different socio-cultural contexts. This research aimed to fill the gap by implementing a CBPR project to promote mental health literacy among older adults and developing a CBPR model in Chinese context. A year-long CBPR project was conducted in five Hong Kong districts from May 2021 to August 2022. A district advisory group was formed in each district, which comprised 50 community older adults, 2 NGO social workers, and 2 researchers. Each district had their own promotional activities that were initiated and designed by older adults, including street booths, art workshops, videos and photos to promote mental health and introduce relevant information and resources. Researchers recorded field observations in each district activity and conducted focus group discussions with stakeholders. Collected data suggested that specific elements are important for a CBPR model in Chinese context, including participant empowerment, technical support, stakeholder expectation management and potential community contribution. Following the implementation of district promotional activities, a territory-wide advisory group was formed to promote mental health literacy on a territory level in the coming year. This is the first large-scale CBPR project that promoted mental health literacy among older adults in Chinese context. Implications for future research and practice will be discussed.

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to assess a community‐women health ambassadors programme and report the areas that were successful and those that required improvement. The objectives were to assess the feasibility, effectiveness, implementation and sustainability of the programme. Background Health promotion for the prevention of chronic diseases has always been the top priority in the health sector. To ensure that the relevant health messages are well received in local communities, a health promotion programme must be accessible, acceptable and culturally relevant. Design We conducted and evaluated a women health ambassador programme based on the lay health advisor model for health promotion in Hong Kong during November 2014 to February 2015. Health needs and the subsequent focus of the programme were determined by underprivileged Chinese women. Methods University health educators from different disciplines trained the women ( N  = 80) to be health ambassadors through mini‐lectures and training workshops. The trained women raised awareness about the importance of health within their families and social networks. The programme was evaluated through attendance rates, questionnaires and quizzes, changes in knowledge and behaviour, as well as qualitative discussion. Results While the majority of participants found the programme valuable and useful, retention rates were unideal. A statistically significant improvement was found in eating habits, but no significant change was identified for other knowledge and behaviour assessments. Conclusions The programme empowered underprivileged women to reflect on the importance of health, take responsibility for their own health and actively promote health to their families and personal communities. Relevance to clinical practice Our study supports that health promotion programmes based on the lay health advisor model are effective and encourage large‐scale programmes of this nature. Our results also support that future health promotion efforts should deliver brief, clear and simple content as opposed to intricate information.

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to report translation and transcultural adaptation of the Chinese version of the 12-item scale of economic abuse (C-SEA-12) and evaluate its psychometric properties. Forward translation, backward translation followed by consensus meeting with expert committees were done to create the Chinese version. Then, the translated C-SEA-12 was validated on 399 Chinese adults from a territory-wide household survey in Hong Kong. A second-order factor model of C-SEA-12 was demonstrated with adequate goodness of fit (root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA] = .05, comparative fit index [CFI] = .99, Tucker–Lewis Index [TLI] = .98, SRMR = .03) through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. The reliability (Cronbach's α coefficient = .92) and validity were satisfactory. The C-SEA-12 was demonstrated to be a reliable and valid measurement to assess economic abuse in Chinese population.

    Abstract: The study aimed to evaluate the measurement properties of the Woman Abuse Screening Tool (WAST) in Chinese college students. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in Hong Kong. A cutoff score of 10 was found to be able to discriminate between abused and nonabused Chinese young adults. The total score was significantly correlated with total scores for anxiety and depression on the Chinese version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Two-factor structure of the WAST was supported by exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The Chinese WAST was found to be valid in screening for and assessing intimate partner violence.

    Abstract: Dating violence prevention programs have been understudied in Asia, including China. The current study sought to evaluate the feasibility of the Dating Compassion, Assessment, reFerral, and Education (CAFE) Ambassador Programme in China. This program is designed to enhance the behavioral intentions of Chinese students to help peers who are experiencing dating violence and to compare students’ attitudes toward dating violence, students’ subjective norms about helping peers, and students’ perceived behavioral control in helping peers before and after attending the 7.5 hour program. A quasi-experimental design was used, including two student groups ( n = 85) assessed at baseline and 3-month follow-up. Quantitative pre- and postintervention measurements, in conjunction with qualitative focus group interviews, were used to evaluate the program’s effectiveness. The findings indicated a significant enhancement in the behavioral intentions of participants in the intervention group to help peers experiencing dating violence, a stronger subjective norm regarding helping others, and an enhanced sense of perceived behavioral control to help, compared with the control group, over time. Focus group data revealed that students who participated in the program developed a more comprehensive definition of dating violence, increased awareness of dating violence in peers, a shift in their focus concerning the role of intention in dating violence and felt more responsible for helping their peers. The findings support the effectiveness of the Dating CAFE Ambassador Programme.
