Monograph
Raines, J. C. (2008). Evidence-based practice in school mental health. New York: Oxford
University Press.
about how schools should use evidence-based practices to guide students when teaching
how to provide mental health services. Different methods are being mentioned to teach
people how to treat mental illness in practice. The author claims that by using these kinds
of methods, mental issues will slow down rapidly. According to Raines, he believes when
students are taught in this way, schools are able to evaluate the progress on their students
appropriately. He also states students that are taught in this manner will be better
The book “Mental Health in School” by Howard S Adelman and Linda Taylor is about
mental health in general for engaging learners, improving schools and how we can use
methods in school to avoid mental health issues. Both authors have experiences in this
area where Adelman is professor of psychology and codirector of the School Mental
Health project, while Taylor also is a codirector of the School Mental Health Project
(Adelman, Taylor, page viii). The book covers questions like “Why school should be
involved in mental health and what the focus of mental health should be on?” The authors
claims that the book covers and will be helpful of enhancing the nature of scope of
mental health interventions to fill gaps, enhance effectiveness, address problems early,
reduce stigma, and fully imbue clinical and service efforts with public health, general
education, and equity orientations. They also state that this new approach to school-based
mental health will serve students, maximizes resources, and promote academic
performance (Adelman, Taylor, page ix). Adelman and Taylor use both statistics and
good sources to claim their statement. The audience is considered to be broad and contain
all people with a stake in public education (Adelman, Taylor, page v).

Modern school systems play a big role in the development of mental health issues in
our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and
act. (2017,2019) It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make
diagnosed with mental health or behavior disorder (Kaffenberger, 2017). This shows that
schools do play a role in the development of these issues. By taking action to solve these
issues, numbers of people suffering by mental health issues will rapidly become lower.
DeSocio, J., & Hootman, J. (2004). Children’s mental health and school success. The Journal of
The literature review “Children Mental Health and School Success” by Janiece DeSocio
and Janis Hootman is about how mental health can affect and be affected by school
success and failure. According to the authors, a review of the literature states that there is
an interaction between mental health and school performance (DeSocio & Hootman,
2004, 190). A national crisis is established by the authors regarding the influence that the
education system and mental health problems have on students (DeSocio & Hootman,
2004, 191). School nurses are cited as being an important person in supporting the mental
health of the students in the institution (DeSocio & Hootman, 2004, 194). This article
provides information supporting that mental health should be a concern for educators.
Journals
Rones, M., & Hoagwood, K. (2000). School-based mental health services: A research review.
The article “School-Based Mental Health Services” by Michelle Rones and Kimberly
Hoagwood is about how Schools play an important role in providing mental health
services to children. The author also discusses the particular clinical syndromes that the
children frequently are affected by (Rones, Hoagwood, 2000, 223). “Results suggest that
there are a strong group of school-based mental health programs that have evidence of
impact across a range of emotional and behavioral problems” (Rones, Hoagwood, 2000,
223). This information tells us that developing these sorts of programs, will play an
important role in preventing these issues among children. Further, the authors mention
that one-fifth of children in the United States are diagnosed with a mental disorder, and
only a few of these ever received treatment services (Rones, Hoagwood, 2000, 224). This
statement should be a call for the environment to take action into these issues. Rones and
Hoagwood also referring to high numbers of different statistics, which makes us,
Artime, T. M., Buchholz, K. R., & Jakupcak, M. (2019). Mental health symptoms and treatment
In the journal article “Does Parental Involvement Matter for Students´ Mental Health in
Middle School?” the authors talk about how parents being involved with their middle
school children may have a positive effect on their mental health in school (Wang, Salle,
Do, Wu, Sullivan, 2019, 222). Because of the authors experience within this area, good
life experiences and examples from the everyday life are being taken to consideration.
The article mentions topics such as how demographic differences and victimization
influence the adolescent’s mental health. According to the authors, both gender and
racial/ethnic background play a big rule (Wang, Salle, Do, Wu, Sullivan, 2019, 223 and
224). Further, the authors use measures, data analysis, different methods, and descriptive
data to state their claim. Statistics from the article show numbers of different genders that
include higher number within white people than Asians (Wang, Salle, Do, Wu, Sullivan,
2019, 226 and 227). Lastly, the authors discuss how parents involvement within SES,
Ethnicity, Grade Levels, Peer Victimization, and Gender to a great extent influence the
their middle school children (Wang, Salle, Do, Wu, Sullivan, 2019, 229 and 230).
Keys, E. J. The Mental Health Counseling Role of School Counselors (Vol. 1998)
The journal article ” The Mental Health Counseling Role of School Counselors” by Estes
J. Lockhart and Susan G. Keys is about mental health issues in school, how usual these
issues have become and what kind of action that is needed to stop this trend growing and
effect students. In addition the authors discusses issues that contributing to student mental
health problems like poverty, homelessness and physical and sexual abuse (Keys). As
mentioned Lockhart and Keys talks about how schools can move forward by meeting the
needs of these students to create better circumstances within the school (Keys). The
School Mental Health Counselors works with all kinds of issues from students diagnosed
by alcoholism, depression and disorders (Keys). The authors make good claims and ideas
that can avoid these mental issues to develop among schools. People are taking those
issues for granted instead of doing something about it. Taking advantage of school

Miller, K., Wakefield, J., & Sani, F. (2018). Identification with the school predicts better mental
health amongst high school students over time. Educational & Child Psychology, 21.
The article “Identification with the school predicts better mental health amongst high
school students over time” by Kirsty Miller, Juliet Wakefield, and Fabio Sani is about
how mental health among students in high school develop in a good direction with time.
This means that a senior student is predicted to have better mental health than a freshman
student, according to the authors (Miller, Wakefield, Sani, 2018, 21). To state their claim,
the authors use longitude research data, friend identification, and longitudinal data using
Wakefield, Sani, 2018, 23). The authors also mention hypothesis and analysis, which
include data showing that students´ mental health is getting better during years of
experiences at school (Miller, Wakefield, Sani, 2018, 25). Because of these results,
parents should not overreact if their children are suffering by mental health issues early.
Wildcards #2
The Rhetorical Analysis paper was about how ethos, logos and pathos were represented
in the book “Evidence Based Practice in School”. The paper also included genres, audience and a
discussion. By writing this paper I noticed that the book “Evidence Based Practice in School” is
written in a very formal way, which is presented with good structure, vocabulary and statistics.
In addition we observe several surveys, which makes the book reliable. By complete this
assignment I learned more about rhetoric with focus on ethos, logos and pathos. In addition I got
a better understanding of the research process, which made me do research in another way than
earlier. From now I am going to focus on finding more sources to claim my statements and also
use more time to read through my paper. By reading the book we observed that there was a link
between mental health issues in students and modern-day school administration. We also noticed
different methods used to treat Mental Issues in school. The author stated that students that were
taught in this manner and benefited these methods would be better prepared to enter the
workforce and graduation. Because of these observations, schools should introduce improved
systems to prevent these issues from developing even more. By completing this assignment we
learned about rhetoric at the same time as we went deeper into the topic “Mental Health”.
Cleary, M., Walter, G., & Jackson, D. (2011). “Not always smooth sailing”: mental health issues
associated with the transition from high school to college. Issues in mental health
In the journal article “'Not always smooth sailing': Mental health issues associated with
the transition from high school to college by Michelle Cleary, Garry Walter and Debra
Jackson talk about how circumstances and expectations play a big role in developing
mental health issues among students transitioning to college or university life. The
authors discuss risk factors, identity challenges, and strategies used to improve the mental
health among these students (Cleary, Walter, Jackson, 2011, 250). Cleary,Walter, and
Jackson carry a lot of experience within this field, which makes them reliable (Cleary,
Walter, Jackson, 2011, 250). The authors talk about how the transition to college may
involve implications for students’ mental health (Cleary, Walter, Jackson, 2011, 251).
Challenges for Health Professionals on college campuses are also mentioned where
students that die by suicide may affect the campuses negatively (Cleary, Walter, Jackson,
2011, 252). Strategies are being used to improve the mental health of young adults on
college campuses to prevent this problem. An article by Kitzrow states that more and
better mental health service use on campus may be a result of more positive attitude
the important role the transition for college students plays for the mental health among
these students.

Artime, T. M., Buchholz, K. R., & Jakupcak, M. (2019). Mental health symptoms and treatment
The journal article “Mental Health Symptoms and Treatment Utilization Among Trauma-
Jakupcak is about the impacts of two forms of trauma exposure on students mental health
and academic functioning and about comparing mental health service utilization. These
forms are based on the authors’ experiences of trauma exposure (Artime, Buchholz,
Jakupcak, 2019, 274). Because the authors carry years of experiences within this area, the
given information is credible. Artime, Buchholz, and Jakupcak talk about combat and
interpersonal violence where they mention that there has been an increase in attention
targeting this topic. In addition, the authors mention Service utilization among trauma-
exposed college students, and discuss how this is related to mental health (Artime,
Buchholz, Jakupcak, 2019, 275). Methods to solve these issues are given where the
authors also mention data to state their claim on how to decrease these issues (Artime,
Buchholz, Jakupcak, 2019, 277). Lastly, the authors discuss the measurements,
participants, and results with focus on trauma history and mental health indicators.
Numbers show that compared with students with no deployment exposure or IPV in the
past 12 month, trauma-exposed students suffered from poorer mental health as indicated
Kim, D. H., Bassett, S. M., So, S., & Voisin, D. R. (2018). Family stress and youth mental health
The journal article “Family Stress and Youth Mental Health Problems: Self-Efficacy and
Future Orientation Mediation” by Dong Ha Kim, Suzanna So, Sarah M. Bassett, and
Dexter R. Voisin is about whether future orientation and self-esteem mediated the
relationship between family stress and mental health problems among African American
youth (Dong, So, Bassett, Voisin, 2019, 125). The authors use credible information from
their education and life experiences. According to the article, “future orientation and self-
esteem work as potential mediators of family stress and mental problems in youth” (.
Future orientation is then a factor that is likely to mediate relationship between family
stress and youth mental health problems. The authors also mention mental health
problems among African American youth. The 2000 national Household Survey on Drug
Abuse states that “among European American, Hispanic, and African American
adolescents, African American youth reported higher rates of anxiety but lower rates of
depression as compared with European American and Hispanic adolescents” (Dong, So,
Bassett, Voisin, 2019, 126). The authors also use models such as the conceptual model
that explains family stress and mental health mediated by self-esteem and future
orientation (Dong, So, Bassett, Voisin, 2019, 128). In addition, measurements are also
being used where topics like for instance; demographics, family stress, self-esteem, future
orientation, and mental health problems are mentioned. By using analysis, the authors`
