Positive mental health among Mexican mothers in a community in the south of the State of Mexico

This research aimed to describe the Positive Mental Health (PMH) of Mexican mothers. A non-experimental, empirical, quantitative, and descriptive research design was used. One hundred female participants participated. Inclusion criteria included residing in a selected community and having children enrolled in primary school during the research period. The Positive Mental Health scale, valid for the Mexican population, was applied. Results were obtained using SPSS version 26, using descriptive statistics as parameters, measurements, and percentages. The factors with the highest PMH are problem-solving and self-actualization; self-control is the factor with the lowest PMH.
