| Popis: | BackgroundDespite the availability of evidence-based and effective treatments, significant numbers of people living with mental illness do not receive treatment or do not seek help from providers of formal modern treatment. Although numerous primary studies have been conducted on patterns of help-seeking behavior among individuals with mental illness with respect to modern therapy, the evidence has not been aggregated nationwide. Therefore, the aim of this review was to investigate pooled data on patterns of help-seeking behavior among individuals with mental illness in Ethiopia.MethodsAll available primary studies were searched via the Google Scholar, HINARI, and PubMed databases from June 22 to December 20, 2023; 912 articles were identified. Sixteen articles were included in the final review; data from them were extracted to an Excel spreadsheet and exported to Stata version 17 for analysis. The search terms used were: “Pattern of help-seeking behavior’’ OR “Pattern of treatment-seeking behavior” OR “Health care-seeking behavior” OR “Help-seeking intention” OR “Help-seeking preferences” OR “Perceived need” OR “Pathways to psychiatric care”, AND “Common mental disorders” OR “Mental illness” OR “Mental health problems” OR “Depression”, AND “Predictors” OR “Determinate factors” OR “Associated factors”, AND “Ethiopia”. The quality of the studies included was critically appraised using the modified The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Joanna Briggs Institute quality assessment tool, adapted for observational studies. During critical appraisal, disagreements between the two authors conducting the assessment were resolved by the involvement of a third author. Effect sizes were pooled using the random effects model, and the presence of publication bias was detected based on asymmetry of the funnel plot and a statistically significant result of Egger’s test (p |
