Youth mental health is in a crisis as prevalence rates for youth psychopathology continue to rise. With global increases in youth mental health problems, along with the havoc wreaked by the COVID-19 pandemic, mental health disparities continue to widen as youth from disadvantaged backgrounds (e.g., ethnic/racial minority, low socioeconomic, rural, gender and sexual minorities) are disparately impacted. Parents occupy a critical position in their children's lives in terms of influence, proximity, and responsibility for providing their children with the resources they need to protect their mental health. Yet, disadvantaged families experience persistent barriers that impede their access to mental health treatment, and few accessible mental health resources exist for parents from these backgrounds. Consequently, parents in disadvantaged families rarely receive formal psychological training and often lack the skills needed to effectively intervene when their children experience mental health problems. Digital mental health interventions (DMHIs)-psychosocial interventions that have been digitally translated-offer a promising means to reduce mental health disparities among disadvantaged youth by providing their parents with vital mental health resources while overcoming many of the traditional barriers to care. However, the full potential of technology has yet to be realized, as few to no evidence-based and culturally sensitive DMHIs exist for disadvantaged families. A priority for the field is to promote health equity by providing disadvantaged families with the mental health resources that they need. Toward this end, the present article calls on the field to harness technology to empower parents from disadvantaged families as interventionists in their youths' mental health.

心理健康和弱势青少年:通过技术赋予父母作为干预者的权力。
随着青少年精神病理学患病率持续上升,青少年心理健康正面临危机。随着全球青少年心理健康问题的增加,以及 COVID-19 大流行造成的严重破坏,来自弱势背景(例如,民族/种族少数、社会经济地位低下、农村、性别和性少数群体)的青少年的心理健康差异继续扩大受到不同程度的影响。父母在孩子的生活中占据着至关重要的地位,无论是在影响力、亲密度还是为孩子提供保护心理健康所需资源的责任方面。然而,弱势家庭面临着持续的障碍,阻碍了他们获得心理健康治疗,而来自这些背景的父母几乎没有可用的心理健康资源。因此,弱势家庭的父母很少接受正规的心理培训,并且往往缺乏在孩子出现心理健康问题时进行有效干预的技能。数字心理健康干预措施(DMHI)——经过数字化翻译的社会心理干预措施——为弱势青少年的父母提供重要的心理健康资源,同时克服许多传统的护理障碍,为减少弱势青少年的心理健康差异提供了一种有前景的方法。然而,技术的全部潜力尚未实现,因为针对弱势家庭的基于证据和文化敏感的 DMHI 很少甚至不存在。该领域的首要任务是通过为弱势家庭提供所需的心理健康资源来促进健康公平。为此,本文呼吁该领域利用技术,让来自弱势家庭的父母成为青少年心理健康的干预者。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2023 APA,保留所有权利)。
