Abstract | The mental health and well-being of students entering higher education has become a growing global concern for colleges and universities. Recent research shows anxiety and depression to be the most prevalent forms of mental health concerns amongst college students followed by suicide, eating disorders, and substance abuse. Students' feelings of social and emotional support for interpersonal relationships are directly related to life satisfaction and is significant to college students' feelings of success. This study sought to identify the correlates to having perceived social-emotional support (PSES) needs unmet among students attending college in the United States using the 2010 administration of the Behavioral Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), a national population-based survey. Based on Baker (2013), we hypothesized that increased risk of PSES needs being unmet would be associated with minority race. Our findings indicate that Hispanic/Latino (COR = 2.11) and Non-Hispanic Other (COR = 1.95) students are more likely to perceive their social-emotional support (SES) needs unmet, while Non-Hispanic Black participants reported no significant difference when compared to Non-Hispanic White participants. In addition, we note that additional research and understanding of social constructs of student identity, campus counselling resources, and creating support network is needed. (As Provided). |
