OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Should we abandon universal school-based interventions for mental health?
Universal school-based interventions are interventions delivered to all students, irrespective of need, in peer groups. On average these interventions show small, positive, effects. However, a number of recent well powered trials have reported null and iatrogenic (unintended negative) effects from universal school-based Mindfulness, CBT and DBT based interventions. I will discuss these findings and focus on the results of one large universal CBT based intervention from Australia. I will propose a number of potential mechanisms underlying these results, present some possible solutions whilst also discussing whether or not the field should move away from universal school-based interventions.
