AI Article Synopsis
- Social indicators for young people, like high school graduation rates and food security, are showing improvement, while their mental health indicators are declining.
- This contradiction suggests that current policies focused on social indicators may not be effectively addressing mental health issues.
- To resolve this issue, we need better data systems that provide a comprehensive view of the challenges young people face, including factors not currently measured.
Article Abstract
Policy Points Social indicators of young peoples' conditions and circumstances, such as high school graduation, food insecurity, and smoking, are improving even as subjective indicators of mental health and well-being have been worsening. This divergence suggests policies targeting the social indicators may not have improved overall mental health and well-being. There are several plausible reasons for this seeming contradiction. Available data suggest the culpability of one or several common exposures poorly captured by existing social indicators. Resolving this disconnect requires significant investments in population-level data systems to support a more holistic, child-centric, and up-to-date understanding of young people's lives.
