Megjegyzések:Background The mental health of Hungarians fares unfavourably in international comparison. The Eurobarometer survey on mental health ranked the country 22nd according to the proportion of the population feeling happy all or most of the time; and 27th, that is, last, in terms of feeling full of life all or most of the time. However, the mental health strategy of the country puts a much greater emphasis on services for sufferers of mental disorders within the health care system than on primary prevention. In order to provide a snapshot of the mental health of the Hungarian population, a representative survey of the mental health of the adult population was carried out. Methods The survey was designed and data analysed by researchers of our university; data was collected by a polling company in a representative sample of 1200 persons of the adult population. A self-filling questionnaire was used to collect information on demographic data, socioeconomic status, social support, psychological stress, sense of coherence, depression, anxiety, and stress using validated scales.Results Response rate considering all subscales separately was at least 93,5%. 41% of respondents were male, mean age was 50,8 years (SD: 16,1 years). Distribution of the respondents by permanent residence, age and sex largely reflected that of the adult population of the country. According to the instrument used to screen pathological distress, 11.5% of the respondents struggled with it. This was 1.9% higher than in a previous survey of 2003 that used the same scale (p = 0.048). The proportion of severely depressed was 7.2%; and 11.8% struggled with severe anxiety. No sex difference was found in the indicators of mental health but all of them showed a strong gradient improving with increasing educational levels. Conclusions The survey revealed the quite unfavourable mental health of Hungarians providing proof for urgently needed health promot ing and educational policy measures at the population level.
