A book chapter written by CFS Associate Professor Bruce Lubotsky Levin and USF Health Libraries Assistant Director Ardis Hanson is among the Springer Nature 2020 Highlights, having been downloaded 138,000 times during the past year.
The chapter, Population-Based Behavioral Health, in Foundations of Behavioral Health, highlights the concept of behavioral health within an overall framework of population or public health. It examines the burden of behavioral health problems on individuals and the general public, examines the difficulties and fragmented nature of existing behavioral health delivery systems, and emphasizes the importance of re-focusing behavioral health (the study of alcohol, drug abuse, and mental disorders from a population or public health perspective) on systems integration strategies which incorporate technology, facilitate recovery, and promote prevention.
