Self-Rated Mental Health

This study offers a cross-national analysis of self-rated mental health, exploring how it varies across cultures and demographic groups. Using data from 200,000 individuals in 22 countries, we examine patterns by age, gender, marital status, employment, education, immigration status, and religious service attendance. We present country-level comparisons and highlight cultural nuances in how mental health is reported. These insights lay the groundwork for future research on the sociocultural factors shaping mental health perceptions.
