The perspectives of people with lived experience, families, and researchers with the manuscript writing process in mental health and substance use research: a qualitative study
This study sheds light on the complex experiences of PWLE/F and researchers with the writing process for engagement-focused papers. Overall findings indicate a need for clear guidance for both researchers and PWLE/F involved in mental health and substance use research projects, particularly around what to report on and how to meaningfully collaborate in peer-reviewed papers.
