“…One wonders whether intervening in these cases necessarily corresponds to a forced hospitalization in a psychiatric facility or if it is possible to carry out other types of treatment, for example by carrying out a home intervention over a medium-short period (days or a few weeks). Forced hospitalization is a violent tool for those who are subjected to it, and often the patient’s rehabilitation measures do not allow them to find a home with their family that can accommodate them once hospitalization is over ( 49–51 ) The hope for the future is to be to be able to nourish and nurture a global model of community mental health intervention ( 52 ) by training professional staff in a holistic conception of mental distress and social stigma ( 53–55 ), also educating society to request and integrate psychiatric and psychosocial interventions ( 56 ) with support from the third sector, ensuring the continuity of care in the family and community after discharge from hospitals.…”

BackgroundDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, studies report that in the first few months of the lockdown there was a decrease in requests for mandatory psychiatric treatment, while, in contrast, following the second wave, the number of cases increased. This study investigates the use of compulsory psychiatric treatments internationally in the first and subsequent phases of the pandemic.MethodsSixteen key people were interviewed: eight mental health care professionals and eight scholars in Italy, Greece, China and Chile. Participants were asked to discuss their experience of the motivations, diagnoses and management of patients undergoing an involuntary psychiatric hospitalization.ResultsThe analysis through Grounded Theory highlighted four themes: (a) the culture of psychiatric care services, (b) the effect of the pandemic on involuntary hospitalizations, (c) exceptional management of hospitalization, and (d) policies and suggestions for more inclusive mental health treatments.ConclusionDuring the first wave, respondents reported a decrease in the use of involuntary treatments, while a gradual increase was seen in the following months. Italy extended compulsory psychiatric treatment to a group of new users, including young people and adolescents with acute crises; in other contexts, the main users are chronic psychiatric patients.

“…More research is needed to shed light on how sexual orientation varies by culture and region ( Salvati et al, 2020 ; Arcidiacono and Carbone, 2021 ; Salvati and Koc, 2022 ). Although our dataset is large enough to permit analyses by country and region, we have, mainly because of length considerations, elected to include such analyses in a separate paper that will summarize data from both the English version of the ESOI and translations of the questionnaire into Arabic, Chinese (simplified and traditional), French, German, Japanese, Spanish, and other languages.…”

Is everyone a mix of straight and gay? A social pressure theory of sexual orientation, with supporting data from a large global sample

Sigmund Freud, Alfred Kinsey, E.O. Wilson, and others have suggested that social pressure suppresses natural tendencies for humans to express bisexuality, the apparent norm for one of our two closest genetic relatives, the bonobo. An analysis of data obtained from a new online sample of 1,150,938 people in 215 countries and territories (63.9% from the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada) who completed the English version of a validated questionnaire of sexual orientation lends support to this idea. A histogram of scores from 0 (exclusive opposite-sex inclinations) to 18 (exclusive same-sex inclinations) forms a near-normal distribution. Although this distribution was likely caused to some extent by sampling bias, it may also reflect the unusual honesty people show when taking online tests anonymously, as an increasing body of evidence demonstrates. We present a formal mathematical expression of a social pressure theory of sexual orientation, along with empirical evidence and computational explorations that support the theory. We also present an analysis of the new data set. Among other findings: sexual orientation labels corresponded to broad, skewed, overlapping distributions of scores. Self-labeled gays/lesbians and, to a greater extent, self-labeled straights, reported that the larger the mismatch between their sexual orientation label and their actual sexual inclinations, the more distress they felt regarding their sexual orientation, a finding that is predictable from cognitive dissonance theory. Educating the public about the true nature of sexual orientation might quell the often rancorous public debates on this topic, as well as give comfort to a large number of mislabeled people.

“…A budget of EUR 18 billion has been financed for this plan. These actions aim to build a cultural scaffolding in Italian societies starting from a reaffirmation of the transformative power of the school and the promotion of teachers capable of reading the social and emotional transformations in which the school and its pupils are immersed, such as for example the impoverishment of families, the difficulty of entering the world of work following the diploma [28], immigration, the presence of new sexualities [29][30][31], and the difficulty of imagining and promoting within the training processes a future of autonomy for students with disabilities throughout their life span [32,33].…”

The school context, following an overall complexification of society, presents several situations in which it is necessary to build a transformative setting based on the suspension of educational action and the use of in-depth interpretations of divergent behaviors. Method: Two teachers with psychological training present and discuss cases studies of psychological intervention based on the analysis of demand methodology. Results: The two case studies presented concern, respectively, a difficult inclusion of a foreign pupil in the classroom and a school phobia of a student before graduating. In both cases, the classes are reconceived as clinical settings thereby giving new meaning to the psycho-social relationships of the students. The teachers promoted an overcoming of critical events: in the first case the pupil reaches school inclusion in a short time; in the second case the pupil reaches the diploma. Conclusion: The method of psychological intervention is proposed as an innovative practice of negotiation of new emotional symbolic structures in which to reproduce a coexistence in the scholastic context. It therefore appears necessary to equip schools with professional skills in the analysis of demand in order to train teachers to recognize the emotional dimensions within the class context.
