Positive mental health (PMH)

PMH is offered as a rapid response module from January to March 2019, and data is collected from all provinces.

Answers to this module are used to determine the positive mental health of the respondent. Higher levels of positive mental health are widely thought to be associated with better overall health.

The questions in this module will determine the past month frequency that respondents report having positive feelings about themselves, their lives, their experiences, their environment and society.
