Abstract

La salud mental ha pasado a ser una prioridad social tras la pandemia del Covid-19. La información que consumen y comparten los ciudadanos y el papel de los medios de comunicación son esenciales. Se analizaron los textos sobre salud mental publicados entre 2018 y 2022 por los diez diarios digitales de información general más leídos en España. Se empleó la metodología de la semana construida y se evaluaron aspectos como las fuentes, la atribución de responsabilidad, la perspectiva temporal, los valores noticiosos, la presencia de estigmas y estereotipos de género o la influencia de la pandemia. Las fuentes a las que más recurren los medios de comunicación son los afectados. El marco de desafío está más presente que el estigmatizante. Los valores noticiosos más presentes son la actualidad, la relevancia social y el interés humano. La pandemia no influyó en los resultados. Sin embargo, aquellos textos protagonizados por mujeres presentan diferencias relevantes, con mayor presencia de estigma y vinculación a la violencia. La evolución de la cobertura de la salud mental en los diarios digitales ha sido positiva y, en general, se ha reducido el estigma, salvo en aquellos casos en los que las protagonistas son mujeres.
