Resumo(s)
A Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) defende que a saúde é um estado de completo bem-estar físico, mental e social, e não somente ausência de doença.
A saúde mental é parte integrante do conceito Saúde, e diz respeito à qualidade de vida cognitiva e emocional do indivíduo, para além da ausência de doença mental. Por outro lado, a Saúde Mental Positiva define-se como a capacidade do indivíduo em se adaptar às mudanças e adversidades no seu dia-a-dia, para além do não desenvolvimento de doença mental.
Os estudantes universitários constituem uma população que se encontra numa fase de transição e de adaptação ao Ensino Superior, geradora de stress e de risco para a saúde mental. Assim, optou-se por realizar um estudo quantitativo e exploratório, através da aplicação do QSM+, a estudantes do Ensino Superior no sentido de avaliar a Saúde Mental Positiva destes.
Como principal resultado, verificou-se que a amostra de estudantes do Ensino Superior apresenta um nível de Saúde Mental Positiva alto, que corresponde ao estado de Flourishing (segundo QSM+).
The World Health Organization (WHO) advocates that health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease. Mental health is an integral part of the concept of health, and it concerns the cognitive and emotional quality of an individual's life, beyond the absence of mental illness. On the other hand, Positive Mental Health is defined as an individual's ability to adapt to changes and adversities in their daily life, beyond not developing mental illness. University students constitute a population that is in a transitional phase and adapting to higher education, which generates stress and poses a risk to mental health. Therefore, a quantitative and exploratory study was conducted using the application of the QSM+ (Questionnaire of Mental Health Positive Aspects) to assess the Positive Mental Health of these university students. The main result indicated that the sample of university students showed a high level of Positive Mental Health, corresponding to the state of flourishing (according to QSM+).
