“…erefore, we need to clarify the connotation of the healthy personality of the employees. Healthy personality is a good character, which includes no aggressive personality, no violence, sincerity, and good treatment, which makes the employees of enterprises have a more ideal personality [18][19][20][21]. In order to analyze the mental health and consumption behavior of enterprise employees, it is necessary to analyze the definition of the healthy personality and the constitution of the healthy personality of the employees.…”

With the development of big data concept and technology, big data has an important impact on human development. This paper studies the relationship between the consumption pattern and mental health of enterprise employees under the normalization of epidemic prevention and control. Starting from the consumption structure and behavior of enterprise employees, it defines the meaning of enterprise employees’ consumption and the connotation of enterprise employees’ health psychology and analyzes the relationship between consumption behavior and consumption psychology and the elements of enterprise employees’ health psychology. Based on the change of employees’ income structure and consumption patterns, this paper speculates the relationship between employees’ consumption patterns and mental health, analyzes the correlation between employees’ consumption patterns and mental health through a questionnaire survey, and calculates the Correlation Clustering statistical results. It plays an important role in building a good enterprise staff consumption culture under the normalization of epidemic prevention and control and effectively realizes the significance of purifying the social consumption environment.

“…EBE need support to receive equal opportunities for professional development, appropriately flexible working arrangements and autonomy over the material they deliver and ideas that they present (Happell & Roper, 2007). A particular challenge is that, as the value of the input of EBE’s becomes more widely appreciated through an institution and/or a community, the demands on their time and resource increases without necessarily being reflected in the formal scope of the role (Happell, Gordon, et al, 2021). The EBE, due to their role being both professional and personal, often goes above and beyond what is contractually required of them, without being recognized for their efforts.…”

Accessible summary What is known on the subject? Experts by experience involvement in the education of health professionals demonstrate positive attitudinal change. Meaningful positions for Experts by Experience are limited and ad hoc, due to attitudinal and other barriers to innovation within the higher education sector. Experiences of allies who have supported the implementation of Expert by Experience positions have not been researched. This is important knowledge that could be utilized by potential allies. What the paper adds to existing knowledge? Academic allies to experts by experience have a crucial role to play in identifying opportunities to establish, implement and sustain expert by experience positions. Allies who have successfully implemented positions for experts by experience have identified influential factors including: right person, right role, collaboration and coproduction, support, and career pathways. Understanding these factors can provide an important basis for other academics to support a widespread increase in academic roles for experts by experience in mental health education. What are the implications for practice? Establishing and maintaining genuine relationships with service users require significant attitudinal change on the part of mental health professionals. Involving experts by experience in mental health education provides an innovative approach to the challenging of attitudes and the enhancement of more collegial relationships with service users as colleagues in the workplace. This paper demonstrates the importance of allyship to the establishment, implementation and sustainability of expert by experience roles, and highlights critical factors allies have utilized in support of such roles. Nurses and other mental health professional academics have the potential to become allies and support change and innovation. Abstract IntroductionExperts by experience in academia have demonstrated more positive student attitudes towards relationships with service users. Notwithstanding this supportive evidence, academic positions for EBE have not grown substantially. Enhanced understanding of positions that have been implemented is important knowledge for others with similar aspirations. AimTo enrich understanding of the role of allies in identifying and pursuing opportunities to support academic positions for experts by experience. MethodsQualitative exploratory approach, involving In‐depth interviews with allies with expertise in supporting academic positions for experts by experience. ResultsParticipants were enthusiastic about creating or taking opportunities to secure expert by experience involvement within their programs. Factors facilitating success included right person, right role, collaboration and coproduction, support and career pathways. ConclusionsSignificant barriers have prevented proliferation of academic roles for experts by experience. Despite barriers, allies have been successful in supporting the implementation and sustaining of positions, and gained consid...

BackgroundThere is growing evidence demonstrating the impact of engaging people with lived experience (PWLE) in health research. However, it remains unclear what evidence is available regarding the impact of engagement specific to mental health and substance use research.MethodsA scoping review of three databases and thematic analysis were conducted. Sixty‐one articles that described the impact of engagement in mental health and substance use research on either individual experiences or the research process were included.ResultsKey topics include (a) the impact of engagement on individual experiences; (b) the impact of engagement on the research process; and (c) facilitators and barriers to impactful engagement. Studies largely focused on the perceived positive impact of engagement on PWLE (e.g., personal and professional growth, empowering and rewarding experience, feeling heard and valued), researchers (e.g., rewarding experience, deeper understanding of research topic, changes to practice), and study participants (e.g., added value, fostered a safe space). Engagement activities were perceived to improve facets of the research process, such as improvements to research quality (e.g., rigour, trustworthiness, relevance to the community), research components (e.g., recruitment), and the research environment (e.g., shifted power dynamics). Facilitators and barriers were mapped onto the lived experience, researcher, team, and institutional levels. Commonly used terminologies for engagement and PWLE were discussed.ConclusionEngaging PWLE—from consultation to co‐creation throughout the research cycle—is perceived as having a positive impact on both the research process and individual experiences. Future research is needed to bring consistency to engagement, leverage the facilitators to engagement, and address the barriers, and in turn generate research findings that have value not only to the scientific community, but also to the people impacted by the science.Patient or Public ContributionPWLE were engaged throughout the scoping review process, including the screening phase, analysis phase, and write‐up phase.
