Hong kong students to learn mental health first aid in new study
NCT ID NCT07195890
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a three-hour teen mental health first aid course can improve how secondary school students in Hong Kong understand mental illness, reduce stigma, and encourage them to seek help. About 250 students from Forms 4 to 6 will take the course and fill out surveys before, right after, and three months later. A control group will also be surveyed to see if the course makes a real difference.
