摘要
The purpose of the study was to identify barriers to accessing mental health services by migrant youth in a middle-sized central Canadian city. We asked participants, "What would stop you from talking to someone about mental health stress?". We interviewed 30 youth aged 16 to 22 who migrated from 10 different countries and lived in Canada for an average of 29 months. The data was analyzed using group concept mapping. The participants identified five concepts: fear of being misunderstood or ignored, desire for confidentiality, lack of trust and understanding, talking about it as not appropriate, and fear of the disclosure process. We compare these results with the literature.
