“…Mjøsund et al . () guidelines are clear, but some issues, such as ‘who decides what is possible?’ in principle five, are still open for discussion. This is because the ways in which the question about ‘possibility’ is revolved in a research team could be based on skewed power relations.…”

“…Creating a positive research atmosphere, where research groups establish a safe working relationship, as forwarded in Mjøsund et al . 's () six guiding principles, is time‐consuming. However, it is of utmost importance for user‐researchers that they feel valued by academic researchers and that they experience that their contributions are respected.…”

Service user involvement in mental health research is on the international political agenda, for example mirrored by an emphasis on user involvement in funding of research. The idea is that service users contribute with their lived experiences of mental distress to the research process and thereby heighten the quality and relevance of the research. The purpose of this scoping review was to identify and evaluate empirical research of how mental health service users actually partake in collaborative research processes and to summarize this research in dialogue with mental health user-researchers. The review included 32 studies. Main findings indicated that actual involvement of service user-researchers in research processes encompassed a complex set of precarious negotiation practices, where academics and service user-researchers were positioned and positioned themselves in alternative ways. The review accounts for how mental health service users were involved in collaborative research processes. The extracted themes concerned: (i) Expectations of research processes, (ii) Contribution to research processes, and (iii) Training and learning from research processes. The study reveals that collaborative research in mental health requires changes to traditional research practices to create and support genuine collaborative partnerships and thereby avoid tokenism and power inequalities.

“…Further, this chapter emphasizes an insider perspective on how mental health promotion is perceived grounded in patients' lived experiences. The chapter is inspired from our own empirical research [2][3][4][5][6][7], as well as extensive theoretical analysis and review reports [8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. The litera-ture we build on is mainly grounded in qualitative research.…”

This chapter focuses on mental health promotion with a salutogenic understanding of mental health as an individual’s subjective well-being encompassing both feelings and functioning. Mental health is an ever-present aspect of life, relevant for everybody; thus, to promote mental health is a universal ambition. Our chapter is written with adults with mental illness in need of mental health nursing in mind. To understand the present and make suggestions for the future, knowledge of the past is needed. We elaborate on historical trends of nursing, nursing models, and the hospital setting to support our statement; persons with mental illness need a more complete mental health nursing care, including salutogenic mental health promotion. In the last part of the chapter, we introduce the salutogenic-oriented mental health nursing, and further showing how salutogenesis can be integrated in nursing care for persons with mental illness. As well as elaborating on the features of salutogenic-oriented mental health nursing, and briefly present the Act-Belong-Commit framework for mental health promotion as an example of salutogenesis in nursing practice.

“…Crucially, they also understood the capital that they brought to co-production. The salutogenic nature of co-production is echoed in studies considering the benefits for service user involvement in participatory nursing research, with key contributory factors being the leadership of the process, clarification about their role, the structure of the meetings and being a member of a team ( Mjøsund et al, 2018 ). The appreciation group members had of the facilitators’ styles justifies their commitment to respectful engagement ( Flicker and Nixon, 2015 ) and genuine respect for group member opinions ( Simpson et al, 2014 ).…”

Co-production is a process employed to solve complex issues, recognising the expertise of all stakeholders. This paper reports on co-production undertaken by nursing students, early career nurses and researchers as part of a larger study to design an intervention to increase retention of early career nurses. Mixed methods were used to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of the co-production process in a UK university. Data were collected prospectively, concurrently and retrospectively via interview and questionnaire, between April 2018 and January 2019. Twelve co-production group members completed the questionnaire and six group members and facilitators were interviewed. Students and early career nurses reported personal benefit from participating; they developed and practised transferrable communication and problem-solving skills, believed they were able to make a difference, enjoyed contributing, found benefit from using the group as a reflective space and considered that co-production produced a credible intervention. Findings indicated co-production equipped participants to function more effectively in their nursing roles; incorporating co-production into the development of future interventions may prove beneficial. The relative novelty of this approach, and the potential application of the findings to a diverse range of geographical and organisational settings, add to the utility of the findings.
