Description
Resta Emanuela and colleagues modeled in 2026 the mental health of Italian regions from 2016 to 2023, blending lifestyle behavior data with environmental, social, and governance indicators drawn from national statistics. The country's mental health index held fairly steady nationally while regional gaps persisted, with the north and center ahead of the south.
Inactivity, smoking, and living with several chronic conditions tracked consistently with worse regional mental health, while good nutrition and city green space looked protective. Job security and effective courts also played a part, which the authors read as mental health being shaped by institutions and surroundings, not only personal habits. Calabria and Campania bucked the southern pattern with notable gains. Policy advice joins lifestyle programs with green investment and better governance.
