In the study less than one tenth of the participants have some mental health issues and this calls for concern. Schools should have standing operation procedures in place to periodically screen adolescents for mental health related issues.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1876-2018</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1876-2026</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.ajp.2017.08.021</identifier><identifier>PMID: 28886444</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Netherlands: Elsevier B.V</publisher><subject>Adolescent ; Adolescent Behavior ; Adult ; Affective Symptoms - diagnosis ; Affective Symptoms - epidemiology ; Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity - diagnosis ; Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity - epidemiology ; Conduct Disorder - diagnosis ; Conduct Disorder - epidemiology ; Cross-Sectional Studies ; Emotional and behavioral difficulties ; Female ; Humans ; India - epidemiology ; Interpersonal Relations ; Male ; Peer Group ; Problem Behavior ; School going adolescents ; Sex Factors ; Strength and difficulties questionnaire ; Students - statistics & numerical data ; Young Adult</subject><ispartof>Asian journal of psychiatry, 2017-12, Vol.30, p.114-117</ispartof><rights>2017 Elsevier B.V.</rights><rights>Copyright © 2017 Elsevier B.V.
