    Description: The accurate monitoring of population mental health requires repeated assessments using valid and reliable measures. The Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale (WEMWBS) and its short form (SWEMWBS) are widely used positive mental health (PMH) measures. This study used cross-sectional data from the 2024 Canadian Community Health Survey – Rapid Response on Sleep Quality and Positive Mental Health to test the validity of the WEMWBS and the SWEMWBS among Canadian adults.

    Description: Canadians’ positive mental health (PMH) decreased during the early and mid stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Less is known about whether PMH recovered as the pandemic transitioned away from being a global health emergency. The aim of the current study was to compare three PMH outcomes (high self-rated mental health, high community belonging, and mean life satisfaction) during the late stage of the pandemic (February to May 2023), with earlier stages early (early: September to December 2020; mid (February to May 2021), using data from the Survey on COVID-19 and Mental Health.

    Description: During the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, there was a decrease in population positive mental health (PMH); however, many individuals still reported high levels of PMH. One potential protective factor could be a sense of control, which involves perceptions of personal mastery and minimal perceived constraints. Limited Canadian research has been conducted on the link between sense of control and PMH during the pandemic. This study examined the association between facets of sense of control (i.e., personal mastery and perceived constraints) and three positive mental health outcomes (i.e., high self-rated mental health, strong community belonging, and life satisfaction) during the pandemic among adults in Canada.

    Description: The Public Health Agency of Canada monitors the psychological and social well-being of Canadian youth using the Children’s Intrinsic Needs Satisfaction Scale (CINSS). Validation analyses of the CINSS have been conducted, but not in the 2019 Canadian Health Survey on Children and Youth (CHSCY), a more recent and representative national survey with a different sampling frame, collection method and other measured outcomes. This study tested the validity of the CINSS in the 2019 CHSCY.
