The Demographics of Mental Health at UW Bothell: Descriptive Analysis

Abstract

A quantitative analysis of the percentage of students reporting mental health issues at the University of Washington Bothell found nearly one quarter of the study respondents reported that they are dissatisfied or very dissatisfied with their mental or emotional well-being. However, descriptive analysis indicated that no specific demographic was affected by mental health issues more than other groups. The study found that hours of sleep and attitude towards improving and maintaining health are significantly correlated with mental health.
