National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) - Mental Health Indicators

  • Description: Data source description - Adults: NHIS monitors the health of the U.S. population by collecting and analyzing data on a broad range of health topics. Interviews are conducted continuously throughout the year, and are initiated in-person, with telephone follow-up. NHIS focuses on the health of children and adults in the United States. One adult household member is randomly selected to be the subject of a detailed health interview. If children are present, one child is also randomly selected. Adults answer on their own behalf, while a knowledgeable adult answers on behalf of the selected child. NHIS topics featured include adult life satisfaction, anxiety, depression, mental health conditions, mental health care, and social and emotional support. Data source description - Teenagers: NHIS-Teen was a web-based health survey of teenagers between the ages of 12 to 17. Answers from teenagers helped paint a picture of the health of teenagers living in the United States. NHIS-Teen covered questions on a variety of health topics, including doctor visits, mental health, and social and emotional support. Data were collected between July 2021 and December 2023.
