A questionnaire survey was done among 310 students, about symptoms related to depression, anxiety, and self-harm, as well as factors such as individual vulnerability, family environment, parenting style, social relationships, and emotional and behavioral responses. We used statistical methods like t-tests, ANOVA, and logistic regression to study the relationships between variables. The results showed students different levels of mental health risk, with some students in the medium or high risk group. Female students had higher average scores in several areas, and most age differences were not significant. Although no significant predictors were identified, psychosocial factors showed some possible relationships with mental health results. These this study suggests it is important to focus on adolescent mental health from different aspects.middle school students, Haikou City, mental health,psychosocial factors
