Understanding the social determinants of mental health of undergraduate students in Bangladesh: interview study
This study investigates the social determinants of mental health among undergraduate students in Bangladesh, a developing nation. Over 21 days, 38 students from seven universities used an app to self-monitor their mood, revealing key mental health influencers like academics, family, job/economics, relationships, and religion. The app allowed participants to track mood patterns linked to specific conversations, helping them recognize and adjust behaviors affecting their mental health. Findings highlight unique factors in the Global South, providing insights for culturally tailored mental health interventions.
