Research Handbook on Society and Mental Health

Edited by Marta Elliott

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This engaging Research Handbook offers a comprehensive overview of research on social factors and mental health, examining how important it is to consider the social context in which mental health issues arise, and are dealt with in the mental health care system. It illustrates how social factors affect the interactive process of psychiatric diagnosis and how society responds to people who are labelled as mentally ill.
