“…It is characterized by expecting, and accepting changes, being flexible, and displaying an impetus to overcome any new difficulties. Recently, grit has been considered a factor that positively affects individual mental health (emotional, psychological, and social well-being) [25]. A negative correlation between depression, anxiety, suicide, hopelessness, and grit is postulated as a protective factor for poor mental health [26][27][28].…”

Background: The occurrence of mental health symptoms is higher in individuals aged between 18 and 24 years than in other age groups. Mental health literacy is derived from health literacy, and focuses on the knowledge, attitudes, and competencies that individuals need to acquire to manage their own health effectively. Low mental health literacy is associated with poorer mental health. Grit is also a known protective factor against mental disorders. Despite a heightened focus on mental health literacy and grit as important factors for decreasing mental health symptoms, knowledge of the effect of mental health literacy and grit on mental health symptoms is very limited. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between mental health literacy and psychological symptoms and the mediating effect of grit on these relationships. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study used survey data from 178 university students in Korea. Data were collected between March and May 2022. The SPSS PROCESS macro (Model 4) was used to analyze the data. Results: Mental health literacy was not directly associated with psychological symptoms. However, an indirect pathway was observed between mental health literacy, depression, and anxiety, through grit. Conclusion: Mental health literacy affects psychological symptoms through grit. Therefore, to improve the mental health of university students, it is necessary to develop programs that increase mental health literacy and grit.

“…대학생의 취업이행 과정에서 경험하는 스트레스는 이들의 삶 의 질을 저하하고, 심리사회적 적응, 심리적 안녕감 및 정신건강을 위협하는 주요 요인으로 검증되었다 (Jung & Yang, 2019;Kim, 2017). 또한 취업스트레스가 심리적 안녕감을 직접적으로 저해하 기보다는 취업스트레스로 인해 유발된 미래에 대한 불안감 등 부 정적인 내적 요인이 심리적 안녕감을 저해한다는 연구결과도 있었 다 (Valle et al, 2006).…”

The purpose of this study was to identify: (a) the latent profiles of the difficulties associated with the school-to-work transition (decline in confidence, mood swings, family disagreements, the burdens of familial expectations, economic hardship, and a lack of support) made by university students, (b) predictors (gender, age, grade, university location, co-residence with parents on weekdays, monthly household income, and parental educational attainment) of these profiles, and (c) how the profiles were associated with mental well-being. The participants of this study were 311 senior or above students (164 males and 147 females) under the age of 29, who were unmarried and preparing for employment. The findings of this study were as follows. First, the latent profile analysis revealed three distinct profiles: the “low overall difficulties” type (25.4%), the “moderate overall difficulties” type (49.9%), and the “high overall difficulties” type (24.7%). Second, the factors that predicted each profile included gender, age, co-residence with parents on weekdays, monthly household income, and parental educational attainment. Third, the “low overall difficulties” type demonstrated the highest level of mental well-being (emotional, social, and psychological well-being). This study was significant for examining the latent profiles of the difficulties associated with the school-to-work transition made by university students preparing for employment, while also exploring their mental well-being. Based on the results of this study, practical implications, limitations, and suggestions for further study were discussed.
