Abstract

The correlation between school related stress and self-harm behaviors with respect to the mental health of high school were investigated to obtain data on preventive intervention for improving high school students’ mental health. An anonymous self-administered questionnaire was conducted with senior high school students (N=847). Among the data, those without missing values were used for statistical analysis (n=812). The mediation model below was assumed: school life related stress that is directly and indirectly mediated by self-harm behaviors affects mental health. Furthermore, correlations between goodness of fit and each variable were examined using Structural Equation Modeling. Goodness of fit indices to the assumed causal relationship model were CFI=0.981, RMSEA=0.044, which reached a statistically acceptable level. The ratio of contribution to mental health in this analysis model was 53.0% . The results of this study suggest that it is necessary to consider school life related stress and self-harm behaviors for the improving mental health of high school students.
