Clear sources
We support health claims with clear sources and work to complete source sections when older articles are updated.
Tatmeen Team
Researchers, writers and editors prepare each article, and Tatmeen remains accountable for its standards and sources. When a licensed care provider is assigned a specialist review, their name appears on the article.
The knowledge readers deserve
Mental health shapes people’s lives and decisions. Arabic readers deserve information that is accurate, clearly sourced and both understandable and responsible.
That is why we are building a specialist Arabic mental-health library: one place where complex subjects are explained clearly and trusted knowledge connects with professional care.
Our ambition is to raise the standard of Arabic mental-health content and build a reference readers can return to whenever they need a clearer understanding.
Editorial accountability
Four principles guide how we prepare and update articles:
We support health claims with clear sources and work to complete source sections when older articles are updated.
When a licensed care provider is assigned a health review, their name appears on the article. “Tatmeen Team” denotes organizational editorial accountability; it does not automatically mean a named clinical review.
When science has not settled a question, we say so. We do not present a possibility as an established fact.
We update articles when important evidence changes and explain corrections that alter material information or a health conclusion.
A shared process with clear responsibility
Defines the article’s question and scope, gathers the most relevant evidence, and assesses its strength, limitations and permissible conclusions.
Turns the research into a clear, coherent article, explains information in context and preserves the conditions and limits that shape its meaning.
When a health review is assigned, a licensed care provider reviews the final draft within their area of practice and requests changes to unsupported or potentially misleading claims.
Makes the final publication decision after checking that the article is coherent and meets Tatmeen’s standards. This decision remains independent of booking and promotion, and the editor may return or stop an article at any stage.
From question to publication
We begin with a clear question and set the article’s boundaries: what it should answer, and what sits outside its scope.
We write only as far as the evidence allows—and say clearly what remains unsettled.

What we rely on
We build current Tatmeen articles and review our archive using peer-reviewed research, professional guidance and references from official health authorities in Saudi Arabia and internationally. We choose what best fits each subject and explain the limits of what can be concluded.
Published in scientific journals
Issued by specialist medical bodies and associations
Issued by Saudi and international health authorities, including the Ministry of Health and the World Health Organization
Responsibility continues after publication
Tatmeen remains accountable for what it publishes. We receive reader feedback through the address below, verify reported errors and disclose corrections that change material information or a health conclusion. Articles display their publication date and latest update when available.
When new evidence changes how the subject is understood.
After an error has been verified.
When a correction changes material information or a health conclusion.
Tatmeen articles are designed to inform and build understanding. They do not diagnose individual cases or replace professional care. When a subject includes signs that call for professional assessment or urgent help, the article explains when to seek it.
