Article Mapping the Evolution of Stigmatization in Mental Disorders: A Bibliometric Analysis From 1974 to 2024(Springer Heidelberg, 2026) Goktas, Polat; Dikec, GulBackgroundThis bibliometric study scrutinizes the thematic evolution of research on stigma and discrimination in mental disorders, covering a span of five decades. It reflects on the shifting paradigms within the stigma-focused mental health research community from 1974 to 2024.MethodsA comprehensive bibliometric analysis was employed using the Bibliometrix R package and VOSviewer software, analyzing 1,892 articles from databases like Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed Central, and APA PsycInfo. Adherence to PRIBA guidelines ensured a holistic representation of the evolving research narrative.ResultsThe analysis outlined three distinct periods: the Genesis Period (1974 - 2007), focusing on foundational concepts of mental disorders and stigma; the Growth Period (2008 - 2015), which experienced a broadening into themes of discrimination and diagnostic refinement; and the Rapid Growth Period (2016 - 2024), characterized by a surge in research on child mental disorders and the impacts of posttraumatic stress disorder. Network analyses highlighted significant journals, key authors, and international collaborations that have shaped this field.ConclusionsThe study maps a significant transformation in stigma-focused mental health research themes over fifty years, highlighting the growing complexity and the need for ongoing research into stigma and discrimination. It calls for interdisciplinary approaches to tackle these enduring challenges effectively.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 7Syrian Refugees' Experiences While Receiving Mental Health Services and Psychiatric Nursing Care: a Qualitative Study(Wiley, 2024) Ozturk, Gizem; Timarcioglu, Kuebra; Dikec, Gul; Karali, Ece; Nacaroglu, Hamza; Cakir, Hanife; Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Harmanci Seren, Arzu KaderAim: This study examined the experiences of Syrian refugees in a community centre in Turkiye as they access mental health services and receive psychiatric nursing care.Design: A qualitative design was adopted in the study.Methods: Data were collected from southern Turkiye between November and December 2021. The researchers conducted three semi-structured focus group interviews. Colaizzi's phenomenological method was followed to analyse the qualitative data. A total of 19 Syrian refugees participated in the focus group interviews.Results: Three key themes related to immigrants' experiences of receiving mental health services and nursing care were identified: barriers to receiving mental health services, coping with negative experiences in Turkiye and satisfaction with mental health services. The participants identified the barriers they experienced while receiving health services as those pertaining to language, discrimination and stigmatization. They also mentioned the methods of coping with these negative experiences in Turkiye. Despite their negative experiences, they expressed satisfaction with the mental health services they received, especially psychiatric nursing care.Conclusions: This study determined that Syrian refugees face barriers in accessing and receiving mental health services. They stated that mental health professionals in Turkiye approach them with empathy, particularly those in psychiatric nursing. Healthcare professionals may be trained in culturally sensitive care to increase awareness.
