“…Young people want to know that both doctors and counsellors are qualified, experienced, and competent at dealing with their problems. Interestingly, none of the quantitative studies asking researcher‐defined questions asked about this theme, and Tatar (2001) found this factor to be seen as more important by adolescents than it was by school counsellors themselves. In studies concerning physical health‐care providers adolescents’ concerns around competence manifested as a particular concern with cleanliness and hygiene (Buston, 2002; Jones et al, 1997; Ginsburg, Forke, et al, 2002; Ginsburg, Winn, et al, 2002; Ginsburg et al, 1997; Rosenfeld et al, 1996).…”

“…The majority of studies reviewed here fall under Macran's level 1, where young people are asked directly for information about the meaning, value and experience of the help they have received but where professionals still define the research questions to be asked and the methods by which they are to be answered. Only seven of the studies reviewed (Garland et al, 2000; Ginsburg et al, 1997; Ginsburg, Forke, et al, 2002; Ginsburg, Winn, et al, 2002; Le Surf and Lynch, 1999; Nabors et al, 2000; Tatar, 2001) fit criteria for Macran's levels 2 or 3 by involving young people in the development of research tools and the setting of research questions.…”

This paper reviews 54 papers exploring adolescents’ own views of their interactions with doctors, mental health workers and other ‘helping professionals’. Twelve global themes emerge repeatedly in the qualitative literature, where adolescents are asked to talk about their preferences or their experiences of receiving help from such professionals. The twelve themes are reported and illustrated with results of related quantitative studies, and implications of these themes for professionals offering services to this age group are considered. Methodological limitations of the literature are discussed, along with suggestions for future research.

“…Moreover, several studies suggest that if adolescents do seek help, it is mostly from informal sources and, as a result, a large proportion of them do not receive the help they need (Whitaker et al, 1990; Rickwood & Braithwaite, 1994; Tishby et al, 2001). This phenomenon has frequently been referred to as a service gap (Tatar, 2001). This is accounted for by a variety of reasons, such as the high psychological price involved in formal help seeking, negative attitudes towards formal sources of help, and lack of knowledge concerning where to find help (Nadler, 1987; Dubow, Lovko, & Kausch, 1990; Rickwood & Braithwaite, 1994).…”

This study examines the willingness of Jewish and Arab Israeli adolescents to look for help in times of distress and explores the factors that are associated with the willingness of these adolescents to look for help from formal vs. informal sources. The sample consisted of 6017 randomly selected respondents, 14–18 years old, attending secondary schools. Multiple regression analyses were used in order to explore what predicts formal vs. informal help seeking. Results indicate that satisfaction with school, family and friends, and ethnicity are all important predictors that are associated with the willingness of Israeli adolescents to ask for formal and informal help. The interaction between gender and ethnicity was also examined. The findings present the specific differences between formal and informal help seeking and are discussed in the Israeli context.
