A comprehensive study challenges common beliefs about the relationship between economic prosperity and mental well-being. The report “The World’s Mental State in 2023<\/a>\u201d, based on data from over 500,000 respondents in 71 countries, reveals that some nations with advanced economies rank lower in mental health metrics<\/strong> compared to several developing countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The study, conducted by the Global Mind Project<\/a>, uses the Mental Health Quotient (MHQ) to assess mental well-being on a 300-point scale.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, the global average MHQ score was 65. The report shows that 27% of the surveyed countries were classified as “distressed” or “struggling”, while 38% were considered “successful” or “thriving”. These figures are similar to the previous year.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this global context, Mexico appears in 22nd place with an average MHQ score of 76. <\/strong>Many other Latin American countries are in the top third of the ranking along with Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
