| Abstract |
Objective To explore the factors associated with mental health service utilization by individuals with mental distress in the general population.Methods Using the anonymous data of 97,345 individuals from the 2013 Comprehensive Survey of Living Conditions (Health and Household Cards), we considered from the working age population 17,077 (7,735 male, 9,342 female) between the ages of 15 and 65 years and having a score of 5 or more on the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6)-an indicator of mental distress. We selected variables potentially associated with psychiatric visits (exposure factors), such as the K6 total score (5-24 points), age, sex, drinking and smoking status, number of households, average household spending per month, education and working status, and hospital visits for other diseases. We performed multivariate logistic regression analysis to estimate the adjusted odds ratio and 95% confidence interval of each exposure for consultation for "depression and other mental illnesses" at a medical institution.Results Among the 17,077 participants, 914 (5.4%) reported that they were currently consulting a medical institution for mental health disorders. The higher the individuals' K6 total score, the higher was their likelihood of consulting a doctor for mental health disorders. Among those who reported consulting a doctor for mental illnesses, 58.3% were female, which was significantly higher than the female proportion in those who reported not consulting a doctor. The results of multivariate analysis showed drinking alcohol, living with a family of three or more people, and work, to be factors preventing mental illness service utilization, while being enrolled in high school or higher education, smoking, and consultations for other diseases were shown to be associated with a tendency to promote mental health care utilization.Conclusions Using anonymous data from the 2013 Comprehensive Survey of Living Conditions, this study examined several background factors associated with mental health service utilization among a group with suspected mood and anxiety disorders. There is a necessity to create a social system that would allow the working population to consult a doctor for mental health disorders when needed, as well as receive information about mental illnesses. |

of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,600,774 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 74th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 450 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one has done well, scoring higher than 89% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 524,949 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 71% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
