- Description
- Mental illness affects one in three Australians at some time of their life. Considering the increasing popularity of international travel, the relationship between international travel and the onset or exacerbation of episodes of mental illness requires consolidation and interpretation. This systematic review of research into mental illness and international travel will seek to quantify the known relationships and risks, to aid in prevention of mental illness events in travellers, recognise possible intervention and protective measures, and identify areas for future research.
