- Aim: This study aimed to investigate changes in mental health among young adults participating in an integrated mental health and vocational support intervention according to the Södertälje Supported Employment and Education model. Design: A prospective longitudinal pre–post intervention study of 12 months. Methods: Instruments on depressive symptoms, quality of life, empowerment, engagement in activities and sociodemographic characteristics were administered to 42 young adults aged 19–28 years with mood disorders. Wilcoxon signed rank tests were used to assess changes in mental health. Results: Statistically significant positive changes between baseline and 12 months were noted for quality of life and engagement in activities. Difference in empowerment scores neared significance and a statistical trend towards lower depression scores was seen, corresponding to moderate depression at baseline and less severe depression at 12 months. Conclusions: Integrated mental health and vocational services may support young adults' mental health and is suggested to be linked to their personal recovery and clinical recovery.

- Support for developing a work identity has been shown to be essential for the recovery process of young adults with mental health problems. Since research shows that the development of a student role during the educational years for these young adults may be interrupted, this time period may be relevant to explore in order to support career development and the critical transition to adulthood for this target group. To explore young adults’ experiences of participating in supported education that is integrated with vocational and mental health services, reflecting the process of developing a student identity while struggling with mental health problems. A grounded theory design was used. The material consists of 17 individual interviews with young adults aged 18–29 years who were receiving supported education. Young adults who study while having mental health problems encountered structural barriers and challenged engagement in education that created a gap between the students and the regular education system. Access to supported education was reported to decrease this gap and formed a bridge that to facilitate educational achievements. The achievements were related to several personal benefits that were important for the experience of meaning and identity development in the future. Supported education can contribute to enabling the development of student identity for young adults with mental health problems. This involves an engagement process and positive identity formation that may reduce stigma and is therefore important for the personal recovery process and career advancement.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Mental health problems often appear at a young age. As the labour market places higher demands for education and competence, mental health services are focusing on young adults’ support needs for school and career opportunities. This study is a single case of an integrated supported education and employment unit in Sweden over an 18-month period. Multiple data sources illustrate the process of supporting careers and transition to school and work for young service users. This is a promising example of how careers can be supported through a flexible service that provides support for successful individual education and work trajectories among the youth. The service allowed for evolution of an identity process towards recovery through student and work roles.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: There is growing evidence that people with serious mental illness have impaired capacity for processing sensory inputs which affects daily occupation. Although this is known, research regarding the target groups experiences of sensory inputs in daily occupations is lacking. Aim: To investigate the experience of sensory input and strategies used in daily occupations among people with serious mental illness. Material and methods: Fourteen people with serious mental illness were interviewed regarding their experiences of sensory processing and strategies for managing sensory inputs in daily occupations. Data were analysed using content analysis. Results: Sensory processing issues affected occupational engagement and strategies to control inputs were intuitively used to cope with sensory challenges. Informants either ignored, reduced or avoided sensory inputs. Informants also enabled daily life through strategies such as creating a home that provides rest, finding a safe place, using nature and animals for relaxing and using effects of calming and alerting occupations. Discussion: Specific sensory inputs were difficult to process, which was experienced as stressful and affected occupations negatively. The results imply a need for further research exploring the management of sensory input and the use of sensory modulation approaches to enable engagement in daily activities.

- Opportunities and barriers for occupational engagement among residents in supported housing. Background Research shows that people with psychiatric disabilities view supported housing (SH) as a possibility for social contact, but also as entailing a risk of deprived self-determination. There is, however, little research on the target group's engagement in everyday occupations. Aim To explore SH residents' opportunities and barriers for occupational engagement. Materials and methods Sixteen participants were interviewed, and data was analysed using content analysis. Results An overarching theme, Struggling to create meaning and seeking affection, and three underlying categories, emerged. Finding meaning through self-chosen occupations and support focussed on receiving support, doing self-chosen occupations, and having social contacts. Feeling neglected and insecure limits engagement in occupations was related to feelings of not being seen by staff, and insecurity, which hampered daily life. The third theme was Having a negative self-image and low level of ability hinders an active life. Conclusion Residents' self-view and ability to create an inner drive for being active was important for occupational engagement, which was linked to social connectedness. Occupational based interventions and a personal recovery approach is warranted in order to facilitate needs for meaningful occupations. Significance The results from the study can be used to further develop optimal support within SH units.

Att leva med psykisk funktionsnedsättning : livssituation och effektiva vård- och stödinsatser

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Det offentliga stödsystemet för personer med psykisk funktionsnedsättning är i dag huvudsakligen ett samhällsbaserat servicesystem med tyngdpunkt på öppna vård- och stödformer. Det finns dock brister i systemets förmåga att möta behoven hos dessa personer, liksom det finns övergripande brister i deras situation i samhället som helhet. Trots omfattande reformer kännetecknas fortfarande situationen för målgruppen av utsatthet i form av diskriminering och andra former av stigmatisering samt ekonomisk och social marginalisering. Till detta kommer upplevelser av bristande inflytande över den egna vård- och stödsituationen.Trots svårigheter att leva upp till välfärdsreformernas målsättningar och att implementera evidensbaserade och effektiva insatser på området, finns ändå anledning till optimism. Det här är den tredje reviderade upplagan av boken, där aktuell forskning om livssituationen för personer med psykisk funktionsnedsättning samt kunskap om effektiva vård- och stödinsatser presenteras. Här redovisas en mängd olika interventioner och stödformer som visar att det finns effektiva sätt att förändra situationen.Att leva med psykisk funktionsnedsättning vänder sig till studerande inom sociala eller vårdinriktade högskoleutbildningar, men också till personer inom verksamheter som i arbetet möter personer med psykisk funktionsnedsättning.
