Background of the study

The researchers conduct this study to determine the Effect of Mental Health on
the Academic Performance of College students during the School year 2020-2021.
Mental Health is our emotional, psychological and social well-being are all part of our
Mental Health, it has an impact on the way we think, feel and act. It also influences
how we deal stress, interact with others and make a decision. Mental health is vital at
all stages of life, including childhood, adolescents and maturity. Although mental health
is not a new issue, it has been more acceptable to discuss in recent years. An
increasing corpus of research on college student’s mental health issues highlights the
need for instructors to evaluate how mental health may influence students and what
options are available, given how mental illness can impede student’s success, this is
critical.

Mental health issues among college students are a growing public health concern, and
evidence based-prevention is critical. (Christensson et al., 2010; Dahlin et al.,
2011; Garlow et al., 2008; Hunt & Eisenberg, 2010; Steptoe et al., 2007). Recent
systematic evaluations on student’s health have raised concerns about high rates of
mental ill health outcomes with pooled prevalence ranging from 27% to 34% for
depression and depress symptoms and up to 11% for suicide ideation  (Ibrahim et al.,
2013; Rotenstein et al., 2016; Tung et al., 2018). Stress reduction strategies,
meditation, self-hypnosis, cognitive behavioral, and mindfulness therapies have
demonstrated promise short-term effects in previous research on mental health
promotion and mental ill health prevention (Conley, Durlak & Kirsch, 2015; Conley et
al., 2017; Regehr, Glancy & Pitts, 2013; Shiralkar et al., 2013) Because mental health
problems can last for years (Bewick et al., 2010; Christensson et al., 2010) and have a
negative impact on academic performance and future working capacity (Rudman &
Gustavsson, 2012; Vaez & Laflamme, 2008), the long-term benefits of interventions, as
well as their determinants and moderators, need to be studied more closely.
