Impact of culture on mental illness/ Transcultural Psychiatry
This document discusses the impact of culture on mental illness and psychiatry. It begins by defining culture and the components of culture. It then discusses how culture shapes psychopathology in various ways such as pathogenic, pathoplastic, and pathofacilitative effects. Culture also impacts psychodynamics through variables like dependency versus autonomy, linguistic competence, cognitive styles, and social support systems. Overall, the document examines how culture influences the expression and experience of mental illness as well as psychiatric diagnosis and treatment across different cultures.
Cross cultural psychiatry
This document discusses cross-cultural psychiatry and the influence of culture on mental disorders. It defines culture and explains that cross-cultural psychiatry studies the prevalence and form of mental disorders in different cultures. While early psychiatrists assumed Western diagnostic categories were universal, renewed dialogue between anthropology and psychiatry established a new cross-cultural approach. Culture can contribute to psychopathology in six ways: pathogenic effects, pathoselective effects, pathoplastic effects, pathoelaborative effects, pathofacilitative effects, and pathoreactive effects. Examples are provided to illustrate each type of cultural influence.

Culture and Mental Health
This document discusses how culture influences mental health in three main ways:
1) How clients/service users experience and describe symptoms is shaped by culture through culture-bound syndromes, meanings ascribed to illness, family factors, coping styles, treatment-seeking behaviors, and stigma.
2) Professionals are influenced by their training, communication styles, lack of resources, and potential for bias and stereotyping.
3) Mental health services themselves are structured by each society through how they organize, deliver, and pay for services, and this can perpetuate structural racism, discrimination, poverty, and marginalization.

Mental Health Across Culture by International Psychology
This document discusses cultural differences in perceptions of mental illness across several topics: individualistic vs collectivist societies and prevalence of mental illness within each; differing views on the role of therapists in Western vs Asian vs African cultures; how automatic reactions and social stigma regarding mental illness can vary culturally; and examples of cultural variations in recognizing thresholds for disorders and manifestations of depression. It also presents a debate question on universal vs relative definitions of psychiatric disorders across contexts.
Culture bound syndrome
Culture-bound syndromes refer to patterns of symptoms that are recognized as disorders within specific cultural groups but not necessarily in other cultures. They can involve somatic, cognitive, or behavioral expressions. Examples include amok from Southeast Asia, semen loss from East India, and ataque de nervios from Latin America. There is debate around whether these are best explained by Western psychiatry or as cultural expressions of distress. The DSM-5 moved away from the term "culture-bound syndromes" and instead uses the term "cultural concepts of distress" to emphasize that distress is culturally framed and communicated in culturally specific ways across groups.

The Adult Brain: How Ethnicity & Culture Influence Mental Health
Presentation by Richard G. Dudley, M.D. at the 2010 RWJF LFP Annual Meeting in St. Paul, MN
Ethnicity and culture have wide-ranging impact on human behavior. Understanding that impact is crucial to meaningful communication and the ability to appreciate the concerns of persons from different backgrounds. The adult brain is imprinted with many experiences that form one’s identity and influence one’s decisions. One’s community of origin forms the basis of language and culture whether one comes from another country or from an inner-city neighborhood. A person’s response to prison, poverty, or mental illness will be shaped by ethno-cultural background.
We will focus on how ethnicity and culture influence human behavior, and how to integrate that understanding into the design and delivery of accessible human service programs. Participants and graduates will compare experiences where ethno-cultural differences intersect with the justice system, homeless services, and employment opportunities. We will discuss strategies to create health and social service programs staffed with persons who are ethno-culturally competent, responsive, and respectful.
Cultural concepts of distress and assessment
This document discusses cultural concepts of distress and how they have been assessed and categorized over time. It provides examples of early studies of cultural variations in psychopathology from the early 1900s. It describes the evolution of terms used to describe culture-specific forms of distress from "culture-bound syndromes" to more recent terms like "cultural concepts of distress". The document also discusses different proposed systems for categorizing cultural concepts, including by cardinal symptoms, taxons, and relationship to cultural factors. It provides examples of specific cultural concepts and their proposed relationships to culture and corresponding DSM-5 disorders.
Culture bound syndrome, paris syndrome, stendhal syndrome
This document discusses culture-bound syndromes from various perspectives. It provides an overview of concepts related to culture-bound syndromes and how their nosological classification has changed over time. Specific culture-bound syndromes are described such as Dhat syndrome, Koro, Amok, Arctic Hysteria, and Paris Syndrome. The document also discusses the evolution of views on semen loss from different cultural and historical lenses including Ayurveda, Islam, Buddhism, and Christianity. It highlights the need for an integrated approach in managing Dhat syndrome.
Dhat syndrome
The document discusses the history and evolution of concepts related to Dhat syndrome across various cultures and time periods. It traces how ancient Indian texts like Charaka Samhita and Susruta Samhita viewed semen as the most precious bodily fluid. Over time, different religions and regions developed beliefs around semen loss through various means and its impact on health. The syndrome of Dhat emerged as a culture-bound phenomenon influenced by diverse sociocultural factors over millennia.
culture bound syndromes in india
1. Dhat syndrome is a culture-bound syndrome seen commonly in India, characterized by somatic and psychological symptoms attributed to semen loss.
2. It is more prevalent among young, married males from rural areas with conservative sexual attitudes.
3. Associated features include anxiety, depression, erectile dysfunction, and premature ejaculation. Treatment involves counseling and antidepressants.
4. While having similarities to other disorders, Dhat syndrome has distinct etiological beliefs and responses to specific interventions targeting those beliefs. Further research is still needed to better understand this syndrome.
Culture bound syndromes
Culture bound syndrome, culture related specific disorders, culture specific disorders/ syndromes, exotic psychiatric syndromes or Rare atypical unclassifiable disorders.
LESSON 7: HEALTH
This document defines health and its domains according to the WHO. It discusses the five domains of health: physical, psychological, emotional, social, and spiritual. It then examines culture-specific syndromes in the Philippines, providing the examples of bughat and usog. The document also outlines traditional medicine, Western medicine, and alternative healing as systems of diagnosis, prevention and healing. It concludes by stating that the WHO considers health a fundamental human right.
Arab Mental Health
This document discusses differences in perceptions and treatment of mental health between Western and Arab cultures. It explores how Arab perceptions are influenced more by religion, gender roles, and family obligations compared to Western views which focus more on biological and psychosocial factors. Treatment also differs, with Arabs expecting cure and relying more on religion while Western approaches emphasize drugs and therapy. The document notes how these differing views can conflict but cultural education may help treatment while not changing underlying perceptions.

Sociological Perspectives on
Mental Health and Illness
SociologyExchange.co.uk Shared Resource
Mental illness has been viewed and defined in various ways throughout history. Currently, there are three main perspectives: social realism sees mental illness as a real medical problem; social constructionism believes mental illness is defined differently in various cultures with no absolute truth; and labeling theory holds that powerful groups like psychiatrists label and negatively define less powerful groups like the mentally ill. Once labeled, others will view everything a person does through the lens of their supposed illness. Labelling can have negative effects as it shapes a person's identity and interactions. Social factors like poverty, gender roles, racism, and institutionalization may also contribute to mental health issues.
Deceptive syndromes- factitious disorder & malingering
Factitious disorder and malingering involve the intentional production or feigning of physical or psychological signs and symptoms for psychological reasons. Factitious disorder involves unconsciously motived behaviors, while malingering involves conscious external incentives. The document discusses the nosology, epidemiology, etiology, clinical features, differential diagnosis, comorbidities, course, and prognosis of factitious disorder and related conditions like Munchausen syndrome. Diagnosis can be challenging as intent is difficult to discern. Treatment focuses on harm reduction rather than cure.
Sociology of health and illness wk 22 mental health
Mental illness is a social construct that is influenced by normative expectations in society. Gender and race impact diagnosis and treatment, as women are more likely to be diagnosed with certain disorders and minorities often receive poorer care. The anti-psychiatry movement critiques psychiatry for medicalizing social problems and coercively targeting marginalized groups.

This document defines and discusses key concepts related to health, illness, and mental illness from a sociological perspective. It addresses how health and illness are defined medically, traditionally, and by laypersons. It also examines functionalist explanations of illness, questioning of the medical model, examining the social construction of the body, and concepts of disability and stigma. The document further discusses health inequalities related to geography, social class, gender, ethnicity, and internationally. It analyzes theoretical perspectives on inequalities in health services and debates around defining and understanding mental illness.

Social construction of health
This document discusses the social construction of health and illness. It introduces sociological theories of illness such as Talcott Parsons' sick role and Eliot Freidson's types of illness. The sick role refers to the behaviors expected of those who are ill, including being exempt from normal duties but also obligated to seek treatment. Freidson identified conditional, legitimate, and illegitimate sick roles depending on the seriousness and stigma of different illnesses. The social construction of health and illness has changed over time and varies between cultures.

The Purnell model for cultural competency is considered a model to improve comprehension on cultural competence for individuals within the healthcare community. The Model’s efficiency has been well-rooted in the globally, informing and bringing awareness, to the client’s culture using assessments, health-care planning, interventions, and evaluations (Purnell, 2013). Members of the healthcare field are acquainted to people from distinct backgrounds, cultures, beliefs, and values daily. The population is growing nationwide and is becoming more assorted. Therefore, nurses and other medical professionals need to become more familiar with cultural diversity or it might have a negative impact on the population. Purnell’s model aims at preventing this from happening by making nurses more culturally knowledgeable and catering to their needs regardless of a patient’s culture and background.
Purnell’s model of cultural competence is an ethnographic model that provides a cultural understanding of people in the process of health protection, development, and coping with diseases (Yalçın Gürsoy, & Tanrıverd, 2020). Purnell’s model is characterized as a model with a focus on four essential concepts which includes person, community, global society, and family. The most outer part of the diagram or model consists of the global society which emphasizes the obligation for healthcare workers to view the world and society as allied and not separate items. The model discusses how globalization and communication skills are effective in the influence of society and the method that individuals depict others based on their cultural background. Nonetheless, the model applies the community as a means of getting healthcare members involved and have the want to explore it as a way of comprehending one’s ethics and viewpoints. The way a certain community is seen, impacts decision making and goals to understand them can provide better care. In communities, family is also very important, as a patient may want a member to be included in any decision-making process. Additionally, professionals within the healthcare community must comprehend that a patient’s cultural tendencies, values and beliefs may revolve around familial connections. Finally, one of the most important concepts of the Purnell model is the person. When a medical professional is providing care to a patient, they must treat them as an individual who has their own morals and values. The four concepts of Purnell’s model, family, person, community, and global society have different ways that an individual interrelates, which may influence the treatment they receive and some of the decisions that are made.

Re: Topic 3 DQ 2
Community health nurses must be culturally compliant to provide the most adequate and highest level of quality care. Understanding certain feelings and recognizing these is the first step for the nurse to put aside stereotypes and bias. Most of the time, they are learned behaviors prior to nursing. Stereotyping in nursing is a preconceived assumption regarding a certain group of people; this, in turn, leads to various personal feelings built upon that stereotype resulting in being bias. In health care, these feelings can lead to implicit bias feelings we unconsciously display towards patients and can impact patient care (Falkner, 2018). It is challenging for nurses not to be biased against one group or the other due to the fact that medically and scientifically there are certain groups or populations that certain condition/diseases are more prevalent than others, but "jumping the gun" per say could result in false diagnosis or inadequate treatments (Puddifoot, 2019). Community nurses must take into account the scientific and medical data related to each and every individual.
Campinha-Bacote and Munoz (2001) proposed a five-component model for developing cultural competence: Cultural awareness, Cultural knowledge, Cultural skill, Cultural encounters, and Cultural desire. One important way for nurses to achieve cultural competence and promote respect is to challenge our own beliefs and ask better questions regarding our patient populations. For example, nurses should avoid unintentionally stereotyping a patient into a specific cultural or ethnic group based on characteristics like outward appearance, race, country of origin or religious preference. Additionally, many subcultures and variations can exist within a cultural or ethnic group. For instance, the term Asian-American includes cultures such as Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, Filipino, Korean and Vietnamese, and within these cultures, there are variations in a geographic region, religion, language, family structure and more.

Cultural Competence is an Important Aptitude for.docx
Cultural assessment of a Chinese patient should consider aspects from the Purnell model, including spirituality, psychology, physiology, social factors, and environment. Spiritual assessment may require understanding Chinese beliefs about suffering and its role in atoning for sins. Psychological assessment involves considering communication styles, views on mental illness, and the influence of relationships. Physiological assessment encompasses diet, traditional health practices, and high-risk behaviors. Social assessment requires understanding the importance of family and social support. Environmental assessment involves communication preferences, gender roles, and healthcare practices.
Transcultural nursing
The demographic profile of the countries suggests that countries are rapidly becoming heterogeneous, multicultural societies. So it is imperative that nurses develop an understanding about culture and its relevance to competent care. Transcultural nursing represents and reflects the need for respect and acknowledgement of the wholeness of all human beings.
It is essential to remember that regardless of race ethnicity or cultural heritage, every human being is culturally unique. Professional nursing care is culturally sensitive, culturally appropriate and culturally competent

OUTLINE/ANNOTATED BIB
I. Introductory Paragraph
Ella’s case study raises a lot of concern on the rising cases on the use of alternative medicine rather than convention based on scientific backing. The scenario is related to the current increase of the patients seeking traditional medicine rather than hospital prescribed drugs. Ella had gone for remission for quite a while until when the disease became chronic when she returned to the hospital. Many people have continually sought alternative and complementary medicine because of they believe in their treatment. Ella sought alternative treatment to heal her emotionally and physically. The social, cultural background and religious beliefs of her family are also another factor that led to seeking this alternative form of treatment. It is also quite evident that cultural beliefs and other micro, mezzo, and macro factors that became a major influence in the way she made her decisions.
A. Thesis: The aim of this paper is to examine and understand how the various influences clearly depicted in Ella’s scenario would help in formulation of intervention strategies and their families deal illness situations in a proper manner.
II. Cultural or traditional issues and the integration of alternative and complementary medicine and beliefs (Holosko & Dulmus,2013).
Supporting Evidence:
a. Insistence by the American Indian grandfather on the use of the alternative medicine based on traditional healing practices
b. Cultural/traditional rituals and practices are not backed by scientific background
c. Cultural beliefs undermines the healing process of the patient
Explanation: The book is related to this scenario because it defines what alternative medicine and how the culture of a person influence the king d of healthcare they receive.
So what: Alternative and complementary medicine and beliefs, mainstream medical practices due to their safety and effective
III. Biological basis for care and impact on other family members (Gallant, Spitze & Grove,2010, p.381).
Supporting Evidence:
a. Empower patients and supporting them through proper nursing techniques
b. Knowing the patho-physiological aspect of the disease helps understand on how it is caused and how well it is important to nurse the patient well.
Explanation: There is an outline on the basis of biological care on families.
So what: Good care lead to a reduction on depression and taking of drugs
IV. Micro, mezzo and macro influences (WHO,2002).
Supporting Evidence:
1. Micro influences
a. Preference by Ella on her role in managing her condition
b. Attitudes that were showed by the family members could have some influence on the health care delivery in the hospital
c. Extend family believed in alternative medicine, which therefore undermined the provision of better nursing and treatment of the patient
2. Mezzo influences
a. Availability of vibrant information systems f.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
