Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
It has become increasingly popular in health professional education to solicit the contributions and involvement of people who have firsthand or ‘lived’ experiences of using mental health services – a practice hereafter referred to as service user involvement (SUI).

The findings from this study highlight how traditional constructions …
