Abstract
Objective: The objective of this scoping review is to draw on existing literature to illuminate the ways in which the concepts of self-management, self-care, and self-help are defined in the context of adolescents with emotional problems. The aim is to describe and categorize the definitions of these concepts as well as the strategies or techniques that have been proposed to facilitate self-management, self-care, and self-help for this group, as this may have important implications for policy and intervention development. / Introduction: There is evidence that emotional problems are rising amongst adolescents, while timely access to specialist mental health treatment is limited to adolescents with greater severity of mental health difficulties. Concurrently, self-management, self-care, and self-help strategies may be used by adolescents. Owing to the overlap in existing definitions and lack of clarity around these concepts in a youth mental health context, a scoping review of the literature is warranted. / Inclusion criteria: Studies involving adolescents aged 10 to 19 with symptoms of emotional problems that reference self-management, self-care, or self-help will be included. / Methods: MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, Web of Science, CINAHL, Google Scholar, and MedNar will be searched for English-language texts from the year 2000 onward. A map or typology of definitions will be presented alongside a narrative summary of the results.
