Dodge et al. (2024) outlined the gap between population mental health needs and the current capacity of the U.S. health care system to provide necessary services. We add international examples and a global perspective to their observations. Unlike some nations, the mental health needs in the United States occur in the context of privatized, for-profit health care. Nations that offer population-based mental health services may have achieved greater success through the use of nontraditional providers and by leveraging technology. We suggest that both proactive and preventive interventions are needed to build a mentally healthy ecosystem in the United States. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

人口心理健康的全球背景：对 Dodge 等人的评论（2024 年）。


Dodge 等人（2024 年）概述了人口心理健康需求与美国医疗保健系统当前提供必要服务的能力之间的差距。我们为他们的观察添加了国际示例和全球视角。与一些国家不同，美国的心理健康需求发生在私有化、营利性医疗保健的背景下。提供基于人群的心理健康服务的国家可能通过使用非传统提供者和利用技术取得了更大的成功。我们建议需要主动和预防性干预措施来在美国建立一个心理健康的生态系统。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 （c） 2024 APA，保留所有权利）。
