About this Research Topic
Please note that this research topic is currently not accepting submissions as we are finalizing the last details. We appreciate your patience and interest, and we anticipate reopening the topic soon.
In the evolving landscape of higher education, particularly in a post-pandemic world and amidst ongoing climate crises, health psychology offers invaluable contributions toward the promotion, prevention, and enhancement of student development. The integration of sustainable health and well-being goals within university settings is crucial. There is an imperative need for research that leverages scientific and technological advancements to foster better quality of life, informing policies and actions that bolster mental health strategies in academic environments.
This research topic aims to identify and evaluate psychometric measures and interventions that effectively promote positive mental health among university students. By analyzing both digital and traditional face-to-face interventions, the study seeks to expand the evidence base supporting practical approaches to enhancing well-being within academic settings.
The collection will be circumscribed to assessing the efficacy and applicability of psychometric tools in gauging student mental health and the impact of various well-being interventions. Key areas of focus include:
● Health Psychology and its implications for higher education;
● Qualitative and quantitative analysis of psychometric tools tailored to academic environments;
● Comparative effectiveness of digital versus face-to-face health interventions;
● Alignment of university health initiatives with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Themes under investigation will initially encompass:
● Psychometric quality of mental health measures;
● Strategies for health promotion and work-life balance in university settings;
● Implementations of SDGs aimed at improving university student well-being.
We invite contributions in the forms of systematic reviews, cross-sectional studies, longitudinal research, and clinical trials to deepen the understanding of these areas.
