Adolescent mental health in Hong Kong: a longitudinal analysis of positive self‐evaluation, contextual influences and adverse experiences (2009–2014)

Interventions should collaborate with families and schools to actively promote positive self-evaluation and environments, with a particular emphasis on fostering positive peer relationships to enhance the health and well-being of adolescents.
