Machine learning-based analysis and prediction of factors influencing mental health among children and adolescents in Jiangsu Province
This study identifies bullying, age, and alcohol consumption history as key mental health risk factors among Jiangsu's children and adolescents. These findings emphasize the need for school-based anti-bullying programs, age-specific mental health counseling, and healthy lifestyle education (including alcohol refusal). Lifestyle behaviors like daily breakfast intake should be integrated into dietary interventions for mental health promotion. Urban-rural and gender disparities necessitate targeted support for urban adolescent females, while educational stage differences highlight the criticality of early prevention.
