Mental Health Informatics offers a comprehensive examination of
contemporary issues in mental health that focuses on the innovative
use of computers and other information technology in support of
patient care, education, services delivery, and research in the
field of mental health services. This text deals with resources,
devices, and formalized methods for optimizing the storage,
retrieval, and management of information for problem solving and
decision-making in mental health. Mental health informatics is an
interdisciplinary field based upon computer and information
sciences, the cognitive and decision sciences, public health and
mental health (including epidemiology), and telecommunications.
Researchers in informatics have discovered new methods and
techniques to enhance health and mental health care, scientific and
applied research, and education through information technology. The
fourteen chapters are divided into four main parts, including: 1)
an introduction to informatics, public health, and mental health;
2) an overview of the ethical, legal, services delivery, and
organizational issues in data/records standards and technology
adoption; 3) discusses research in today's online environment,
addressing issues including research competencies, standards for
literature reviews, constructing search strategies, and
synthesizing findings; and 4) provides a discussion of the
globalization of information and future issues in policy and
practice in mental health informatics.
