Malaysian Youth Mental Health Index 2023

Highlights

The Malaysian Youth Mental Health Index 2023 Study is a collaboration between the Institute for Youth Research Malaysia (IYRES) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) Malaysia.

It provides a helpful snapshot for policymakers, healthcare practitioners, and relevant stakeholders to understand the mental health landscape of Malaysian youth.

The MyMHI’23 assesses the mental health of Malaysian youth on a scale of 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest) across seven key areas (i.e., lifestyle, surrounding environment, personal characteristics, life experience, social support, coping mechanism, and healthy mind)
