The Covid-19 pandemic affects many aspects of people's lives, both from the economic, socio-political and healthaspects. In terms of health, this pandemic has not only caused problems in the field of physical health, but alsomental health. One of the groups exposed to mental health problems is students at both the elementary and middleschool levels. The distance learning system implemented among high school students causes boredom, especiallywhen it is coupled with a lot of assignments from teachers. This makes students become stressed. This situation isalso experienced by students at SMA Lia Stephanie Kalideres, West Jakarta. Since distance learning wasimplemented more than a year ago, many students have experienced mental health problems, for example variouschanges in behavior from being cheerful to being moody and quick-tempered. At the time of online learning thereare students who do not want to talk and are lazy to carry out lesson assignments. PKM with an output target of thisproceeding article was carried out based on the results of applied product research (PPT) for the 2017 fiscal yearentitled 'The role of spiritual well-being on resilience and mental health in conflict victims. From the research, it isfound that there is a relationship between spiritual well-being and mental health. In addition, one aspect that playsa role in improving mental health is to improve spiritual well-being. The higher a person's spiritual well-being, thebetter his mental health. The solution to be offered for the students is to apply spiritual well-being, so that they cannot only be free from mental health disorders, but also be able to improve their mental health. PKM which wascarried out for 41 students in the form of psychoeducation aims to raise awareness that improving spiritual wellbeingcan improve a person's mental health.

Background: Previous research has suggested that social disconnectedness experienced at school is linked to mental health problems, however, more research is needed to investigate (1) whether the accumulation of various types of social disconnectedness is associated with risk for mental health problems, and (2) whether loneliness is a mechanism that explains these associations.Methods: Using data from the Danish National Youth Study 2019 (UNG19), nation-wide cross-sectional data from 29,086 high school students in Denmark were analyzed to assess associations between social disconnectedness experienced at school (lack of classmate support, lack of teacher support, lack of class social cohesion, and not being part of the school community) and various mental health outcomes, as well as the mediating role of loneliness for each type of disconnectedness. Multilevel regression analyses were conducted to assess the associations.Results: Descriptive analyses suggest that 27.5% of Danish high school students experience at least one type of social disconnectedness at school. Each type of social disconnectedness was positively associated with mental health problems (depression symptoms, anxiety symptoms, stress, sleep problems, suicidal ideation, non-suicidal self-injury, eating disorder, body dissatisfaction, and low self-esteem) and negatively associated with mental well-being. In all cases, loneliness significantly mediated the associations. We found a clear dose-response pattern, where each addition in types of social disconnectedness was associated with (1) stronger negative coefficients with mental well-being and (2) stronger positive coefficients with mental health problems.Conclusion: Our results add to a large evidence-base suggesting that mental health problems among adolescents may be prevented by promoting social connectedness at school. More specifically, fostering social connectedness at school may prevent loneliness, which in turn may promote mental well-being and prevent mental health problems during the developmental stages of adolescence. It is important to note that focusing on single indicators of school social connectedness/disconnectedness would appear to be insufficient. Implications for practices within school settings to enhance social connectedness are discussed.

Approximately one in five adolescents experience mental health problems globally. However, studies on mental health problems in Chinese high school students are few. Therefore, this study examined the status and associated factors of mental health problems in high school students in China. A stratified two-stage cluster sampling procedure was adopted, leading to a final sample of 15,055 participants from 46 high schools in all 17 provincial cities of Henan province, China. Self-reported questionnaires were used to collect the data. A mental health problems variable was assessed using the Mental Health Inventory of Middle School Students. The positive rate of mental health problems among high school students was 41.8%, with a male predominance (43.3% versus 40.2% in females; p < 0.01). The most frequent mental health problem was academic stress (58.9%). Higher grades, physical disease, chronic constipation, alcohol consumption, engagement in sexual behavior, residence on campus, and living in nonurban areas and with single-parent families were significantly associated with higher odds of having mental health problems (p < 0.05). We suggest that the prevention of mental health problems in high school students be strengthened, especially in students with physical illnesses, unhealthy behaviors, and single-parent families.

Background: The status of mental well-being is a function of emotional well-being, psychological well-being and social well-being, and includes aspects like cognitive and social skills, emotional capacity, empathy, ability to cope with adverse events, and capability to function within a society. Various studies have found strong correlations between a person’s immediate surroundings to how they perceive their well-being as well as their actual status of mental health. On one hand, social determinants affect the causation, severity and outcome of mental well-being, on the other hand the state of mental well-being affects the social determinants by affecting personal freedom, ability to make healthy life choices etc. This makes the study of social determinants of mental health very significant.Methods: A cross-sectional, exploratory study of qualitative nature was undertaken in Patna among School going students between the ages 13-17. A self-administered peer reviewed questionnaire was used for data collection.Results: Of 400 participants 19% have features of depression and other mental health problems. Females were more affected. Students of low socioeconomic group (41.6%) and of single parent family (40%) were affected.Conclusions: Mental health problems are very common in adolescent school students. Active steps must be taken to increase awareness about depression among teachers and parents. Early intervention can help prevent worsening of depression and its impact on life.

Abstract Introduction Reflective function is developed in the context of secure attachment and corresponds to the ability to understand one’s mental states and those of others. Thus, identity develops, which relates to the experience of self as unique, continuous and coherent. Objective To identify reflective function and identity features in adolescents with clinical and nonclinical symptoms of mental health problems. Method Participants were 188 Brazilian high school students aged 14-17 years: 30.3% with clinical symptoms and 69.9% with nonclinical symptoms. Results Adolescents with clinical symptoms showed lower levels of reflective function and greater disintegration of identity. Conclusion Adolescence is a vulnerable time for mental health problems associated with reflective function and identity. Early identification of symptoms is a matter that needs attention to prevent future consequences.
