Abstract

According to a new report, substantial proportions of Canada’s public safety personnel self-report symptoms consistent with one or more mental disorders, proportions that appear much higher than have been found in previous research with the general public. The national study, entitled, “Mental Disorder Symptoms Among Public Safety Personnel in Canada,” focused on the mental health of public safety personnel and was released by a team of researchers with the Canadian Institute for Public Safety Research and Treatment, led by University of Regina psychology professor, Dr. Nick Carleton.
