Determinants of intentions to seek formal mental health help among Palestinian adolescents in Israel

CONCLUSIONS: This study underscores the critical role of trust in formal sources of information and MHL in seeking formal help among adolescents from ethnic minorities. Interventions aiming to improve access to mental health-related information, address and enhance attitudes, and foster trust in formal professionals and institutions may contribute to an increased tendency for formal mental health help-seeking among this population and others.PMID:38312061 | DOI:10.1177/00207640231224658
