PsychCentral.com Launches Mental Health News Service

Top mental health and psychology resource launches news service. Consumers can receive free articles and subscribe to RSS feed at www.PsychCentral.com/news

Haverhill, Mass. (PRWEB) September 7, 2006 -- Psych Central®, a leading mental health portal, today launched a consumer-centric news service at www.PsychCentral.com/news. Each weekday, peer-reviewed news articles covering developments and research in mental health and psychology are offered free to the general public. An RSS feed is also available enabling consumers to integrate Psych Central news into their own news aggregator.

“Those interested in psychology can trust the accuracy of our news,” said Dr. John M. Grohol, Psy.D., founder and publisher of Psych Central. “Health professionals review each news article we publish and are constantly scouring the Internet for relevant stories. Psych Central’s news service will be an invaluable resource for consumers and researchers, professors and practitioners.”

Recent studies show that a growing number of consumers prefer to read news online. In a recently released analysis of consumer activity at general news sites, comScore Media Metrix reported that more than half (54 percent) of all U.S. Internet users visited general news sites in June 2006.

As new articles are added to the Psych Central news service, they are archived into 31 categories ranging from “addiction” to “suicide” for easy access. These categories are similar to channels within PsychCentral.com, making the news service a seamless addition to Psych Central’s other offerings, such as the World of Psychology blog and more than 6,000 pages of additional clinical mental health content.
