Abstract

This study applies data from the China Education Panel Survey (N = 7954; boys: 51.28%; M age = 13.92) to explore students' perceptions of teachers' responses to their mental health issues and how students' and parents' level of engagement with school is associated with teachers' responses. The results suggest that in addition to being influenced by the severity of students' mental health issues, teachers' responses are highly influenced by the school engagement levels of students and parents. This study highlights teachers' uneven attention to students’ mental health issues, which is inadequately addressed in real-life research and practice.
