目标：探讨积极的心理健康水平是否有助于预测学生有自杀行为和学业成绩受损的风险。参会人员：5,689名大学生参加了2007年的健康心理研究，并完成了一项互联网调查，其中包括心理健康连续简表和抑郁症和焦虑症的患者健康问卷筛查量表，有关自杀意念，计划和企图以及学业障碍的问题。结果：只有不到一半（49.3%）的学生是蓬勃发展的，并没有筛选出积极的精神障碍。在那些做过和没有做过精神疾病筛查的学生中，自杀行为和学业成绩受损在那些繁荣的学生中最低，在那些中度的学生中较高，在那些精神健康状况不佳的学生中最高。结论：积极的心理健康补充了心理健康监测中的精神障碍筛查，并预测自杀行为和学业成绩受损。
Objective: To investigate whether level of positive mental health complements mental illness in predicting students at risk for suicidal behavior and impaired academic performance. Participants: A sample of 5,689 college students participated in the 2007 Healthy Minds Study and completed an Internet survey that included the Mental Health Continuum-Short Form and the Patient Health Questionnaire screening scales for depression and anxiety disorders, questions about suicide ideation, plans, and attempts, and academic impairment. Results: Just under half (49.3%) of students were flourishing and did not screen positive for a mental disorder. Among students who did, and those who did not, screen for a mental disorder, suicidal behavior and impaired academic performance were lowest in those with flourishing, higher among those with moderate, and highest in those with languishing mental health. Conclusions: Positive mental health complements mental disorder screening in mental health surveillance and prediction of suicidal behavior and impairment of academic performance.
