RESUMOCONTEXTO: O nível de saúde mental (SM) in uência o bem-estar e o sucesso académico dos estudantes do ensino superior (Chow, 2010), contudo esta problemática tem sido pouco estudada em Portugal. A literatura existente é pouco clara e, por vezes, contraditória no que respeita às variáveis psicossociais associadas positiva e/ou negativamente à SM dos estudantes do ensino superior (Eisenberg, et al., 2009 ABSTRACT " e Mental Health of Higher Education Students: Relationship with gender, socioeconomic status and health behaviours"BACKGROUND: e level of mental health (MH) a ects the well-being and academic success of students of higher education (Chow, 2010). However, in Portugal, this issue has been rarely studied. e literature is unclear and sometimes contradictory regarding to positive and/or negatively associated psychosocial variables of higher education students (Eisenberg, et al., 2009). AIM: (1) To characterize the MH of higher education students; (2) To explore the relationship between MH and sociodemographic and health behaviors variables. METHODS: is is a descriptive, cross-sectional and correlational study, and a non-probabilistic sample, composed of students of higher education in the District of Lisbon of the 1st and 2nd year enrolled in the 1st cycle of studies. Participants gave written informed consent and, voluntarily completed an online survey, which was sent to campus email during October and November 2014. To collect sociodemographic information, health behaviors and students' MH, were used a brief questionnaire and the Mental Health Inventory (ISM). RESULTS: Overall, the results indicate satisfactory levels of MH, both in the positive dimension -Psychological Well-Being and in the negative -Psychological Distress. However, 93 participants were found to have low MH level. Correlational analyzes show that women have lower levels of MH than men. Similarly, as the socioeconomic level increases, the levels of MH improve. e results, also, indicate that higher levels of MH are signi cantly associated with participants who exercise regularly and who sleep more than seven hours, during class period. In this sample, there were no signi cant associations between alcohol consumption and other drugs with students' MH. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that the female gender and the low socioeconomic level are variables negatively associated with the MH of the participants. While regular practice of exercise and sleep seven or more hours per day were positively associated with MH.
