A cross-sectional prospective study of seclusion, restraint and involuntary medication in acute psychiatric wards: patient, staff and ward characteristics

Journal ArticleDOI

Ethical challenges when using coercion in mental healthcare: A systematic literature review

Journal ArticleDOI

Staff attitudes and thoughts about the use of coercion in acute psychiatric wards

Journal ArticleDOI

The Staff Attitude to Coercion Scale (SACS): reliability, validity and feasibility.

Journal ArticleDOI

Staff's normative attitudes towards coercion: the role of moral doubt and professional context-a cross-sectional survey study.
