Introduction The routine curriculum of community medicine includes clinico-social case-taking with a focus on the physical, biological, and psychosocial determinants of health. There is an opportunity to integrate narrative medicine with this for undergraduate and postgraduate medical students using story-telling. The objective of the current study was to assess its feasibility, challenges, and opportunities. Methods We conducted a need assessment cross-sectional survey of the teaching faculty of community medicine across India using Google Forms. Considering an 80% positive response in a pilot within the department, a relative error of 10%, and a 20% non-response rate, the sample size was 120. The questionnaire included closed-ended questions with a Likert scale that dealt with affective, cognitive, and communication domains and open-ended questions for insights into opportunities and challenges. The results of the former were expressed as descriptive statistics, in frequencies and proportions. Open-ended questions were summarized to guide the refinement of further implementation. Results Of the 120 participants, 92 (77%) quoted low/medium empathy quotient in students, and 107 (89.2%) felt that the listening skills of students can improve with the introduction of story-telling. A hundred and twelve (93.4%) participants felt that their history-taking skills can improve with story-telling, and all agreed that the language of medicine can be improved. One hundred nine (90.8%) felt that it will lead to better student-patient interaction. Opportunities included a better understanding of social determinants, patient-/family-centered care, improved communication skills, and better mental health. The key challenges included time, motivation, the need for training/capacity building, and streamlining of assessment metrics. Conclusion We conclude that story-telling may help medical students investigate various social determinants of health, disease, and lived environments that create vulnerabilities.

“…Other scholarly studies have used direct measures of resilience or have studied aspects related to mental health that consequently impact resilience. Storytelling has alleviated psychological and physical pain in hospitalized children (Brockington et al., 2021), decreased stress, anxiety, increased self‐esteem in children (Gonçalves et al., 2017), improved hopefulness in girl students (Shafieyan et al., 2017) and promoted behaviour change (Brooks et al., 2022). Studies included in this review show strong evidence of reduced anxiety (Abi Zeid Daou et al., 2022; Bouchard et al., 2013), depression (Milaré et al., 2021) and somatic symptoms (Ruini et al., 2022; Seale et al., 2022).…”

Accessible SummaryWhat is known on the subject? Storytelling is an effective tool for communication, is universally comprehensible and transcends linguistic barriers, adapting to cultures easily. Storytelling has a strong influence on children and has been used for knowledge retention and for developing imagination, creativity and prosocial behaviours. What this paper adds to existing knowledge? The systematic review offers essential insights into the effects of storytelling interventions on the development of resilience in children. It indicates the various forms of storytelling interventions implemented and also the specific measures of resilience employed in the studies. The review has demonstrated that storytelling plays a crucial role in the development of protective factors in children including resilience. What are the implications for practice? Psychiatric and mental health nurses working in community, hospital or mental health units play an important role in mental health interventions, particularly when it comes to children and young adults. Employing storytelling techniques can help psychiatric and mental health nurses provide timely and consistent support to children while helping them explore support systems, mechanisms and coping strategies helping build resilience. This holds particular importance for low‐ and middle‐income countries where limited resources pose challenges in providing adequate support for mental health programmes for children. Methods such as storytelling are simple and adaptable to the specific challenges faced in the mental health setting. AbstractIntroductionResilience is a crucial aspect of mental health and coping that enables individuals to effectively recover from challenges. Fostering resilience in children becomes a significant objective. Storytelling is known to positively affect resilience, providing opportunities to share and develop narratives that help make sense of difficult experiences, find meaning in them, and building beliefs around our capacity to adapt well to challenging experiences.AimThe aim of this review is to synthesize peer‐reviewed studies on the impact of storytelling interventions in developing resilience in children.MethodThe review adhered to the updated PRISMA 2020 guidelines and was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022365474). We conducted searches in 12 databases with search strings comprising of concepts regarding storytelling, resilience and children.ResultsThe review included 11 studies published between 2012 and 2022. The narrative synthesis of the studies indicates that storytelling interventions enhanced psychological resilience in children.DiscussionStorytelling‐based interventions in school settings with participatory approaches using cultural stories, and positive psychology‐based interventions were effective and feasible.Implications for PracticeThis review has scope for informing future interventions with children, especially those who live in marginalized communities in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs).

Background: Emotion regulation is necessary for psychological wellbeing and social functioning. The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of emotion regulation skills training on reducing aggressive and oppositional behaviors in children (4-6 years old) in Shiraz, City, Iran during the fall and winter of 2018-19. Methods: This was quasi-experimental study with pre-test & posttest design and controlgroup.The current study's statistical population consisted of 26 children with symptoms of aggressive and oppositional behaviour through the Child Symptom Inventory (CSI-4) and the Seyedi questionnaire for aggression. Among these people, a purposeful sampling method was used to select 26 individuals (13 to a control group and 13 individuals assigned to an experimental group). The experimental group participated in 28, 30-45-minute emotion regulation training sessions from a programme called DECA-P2, whereas the control group received no treatment. A posttest was conducted after the sessions were done. The Child Symptom Inventory-4(CSI-4) and Aggression questionnaire were used to collect the data. Data were analyzed MANCOVA by using SPSS V. 23 software. Results: Results of covariance analysis showed that emotion regulation training with the DECA-P2 approach was effective in reducing aggressive and oppositional behavior among children (P<0.01). Conclusion: Considering the effectiveness of emotion regulation training (the DECA-P2 approach) in reducing the aggressive and oppositional behaviors among children, we recommended that authorities apply this training to reduce children’s maladaptive behaviors and prepare them for the next emotional and social development stages.
