(SI) V predlaganem projektu se nameravamo osredotočiti na odrasle prebivalce Slovenije ter pri analizi podatkov upoštevati različne socio-demografske podatke, ki bi lahko vplivali na posameznikova stališča do iskanja pomoči ter dejanske izkušnje iskanja pomoči v primeru duševne stiske (npr. spol, starost, izobrazba, zaposlitev itd.). Raziskava bo pripomogla k nadaljnji krepitvi namenske raziskovalne ekipe ter k trajnosti raziskovalnih dejavnosti na področju duševnega zdravja. Z vidika razvoja znanosti je raziskava izjemnega pomena zaradi do sedaj relativno ozko raziskanega področja pismenosti o duševnem zdravju v slovenskem prostoru. Rezultati bodo predstavljali pomembno izhodišče za nadaljnje sodelovanje s strokovnimi službami, javnozdravstvenimi institucijami, gospodarskim sektorjem, itd. pri vpeljavi predlaganih intervencij. Projekt bo preko opisanega načina omogočanja učinkovitih intervencij pozitivno vplival na duševno zdravje prebivalcev Slovenije, s tem pa tudi na njihovo učinkovito funkcioniranje v zasebnem življenju in pri delu, s čimer bodo imeli rezultati projekta dolgoročne pozitivne posledice tudi na slovensko gospodarstvo kot celoto.

(EN) In the proposed project, we intend to focus on adult citizens of Slovenia and take into account the various socio-demographic data that could influence the individual's attitudes regarding help-seeking behaviour and their actual experience of help-seeking in case of mental distress (e.g. gender, age, education, employment etc.). The research will help to further strengthen the dedicated research team and the sustainability of research activities in the field of mental health. The results will be an important starting point for further cooperation with professional services, public health institutions, the economic sector, etc. when introducing proposed interventions. In this way, the transition of theoretical knowledge into practice will be done, which is an important step for the development of the profession. Through the described method of facilitating effective interventions, the project will have a positive impact on the mental health of the inhabitants of Slovenia, and consequently to their effective functioning in private life and at work, thus giving the results of the project a long-term positive impact also on the Slovenian economy as a whole.
